Title: Pre-Dick-Shuns Week 一百二十五
Post by: Snaggletiger on November 02, 2016, 11:19:37 AM
So far, a stellar season for my predictions as I currently stand at 47-113.  This week, we have the 12th GAME OF THE CENTURY  between Co Yaw Yaw and the Boys and The Derek Zoolander School for Kids Who Can't Read Good and Want to Do Other Stuff Good Too.  Our boys in blue are heavy favorites as they host the really smart kids and the Hogs face off against Gusty Gatah.


Starting on the Planes.  Let's face it, this is a game where we should handle our business early and often.  We're trending straight up (That's the first time I've ever used the patently gay term, "trending") while Vandy is a shit ton of meh. The Dores sit at 4-4 with 3 of those wins coming against Middle Tennessee, Western Kentucky in overtime and last weeks ripping 35-17 victory over Tennessee State.  Their 1 point demolition of those filthy Dawgs, did however, warm my heart.  The good guys are on a roll and need to continue pounding the rock with lots of Pettway thunder and Johnson/Truitt lightning. When the final horn sounds:

Sweet Gus and the Turn Arounds:  37

IQ Tech: 13


I gave Bama the win and 10 confidence points in my BFTC picks.  Sorry, but it's a business decision.  I always do and will continue until they prove me wrong.  I think there's a chance that happens this week.  LSU is always on par athletically with anyone in the country but have been stifled by a coach who refused to change with the times.  The claim is that when Yaw Yaw took over, he was going to change all that and open the offense up.  I've heard the experts and analysts say that's been done to an extent but I honestly can't say I've watched 5 minutes of Faux Tiger football since Les exited stage left.  If that's the case and they try to get the ball down field and throw swing passes out to 4-Net in space instead of trying to big boy Bama's line, this thing could get interesting.  In the end, though:

Guys Who Work Out In The Hot Sun:  24

So You're Saying There's A Chance: 21

Florida made me smile again last week by man handling the Georgia Puppies.  I look at their D as very similar to ours with great athletes at every position but their offense does absolutely nothing for me.  Efficient?  I don't know what you call it.  However you describe it, they're not going to dominate anybody.  And that holds true for this weekend as well.  No way the Hogs are even close to the dumpster fire they appeared to be against us.  I heard all the complaints from Hog fans about how bad their O-line is but coming into the game against AU, they had the leading rusher and pass thrower in the league.  You don't do that with supreme suckage on your O-line. I have a feeling the Fighting Corrine's are coming off a huge rivalry game thinking they can sleep walk through Arkansas.  This is just the type of game where Arky surprises everyone.  Won't happen here....unless it does.

Gusty Gatah:  28

You really think the Midshipmen can handle Equanimeous St. Brown?  His name alone is worth 2 TD's.

Good match up.  Navy is in the top 3 in the country in rushing attempts and stopping the run is the one thing the Irish are half way good at....aside from Equanimeous St. Brown.

Navy is going to roll out the TNT on them. It's being played in Jacksonville - a big Navy town. It's going to be shock and awe all over again!

We've just got too much.  Of everything.  For Vandy to handle.

42-3

The Bama and LSU defenses are spectacular, #s 4 & 5 respectively.  The offenses are pretty similar, when they run the ball: Bama ranks #12 and LSU #36 (they did not have 4Nette for a handful of games.)  Both struggle pretty mightily in the passing game: Bama ranks #73 and LSU #115.

So, the analysis comes down to the impact of Fournette and the home field advantage of Death Valley at night.  I predict that enough #7 running into their guts will soften Bama's defense and keep the Tahd off the field.  The LSU defense will feed off the bourbon-soaked home crowd and create havoc for Hurts, forcing turnovers.

Final score: LSU 31 Bama 24

The last time we saw Arkansas they were laying down to watch Pettway, Truitt, et al run through, around and past them.  The Florida offense hasn't been particularly pretty (#114), but they make up for not passing the ball well (#97) by running the ball even less effectively (#100.)  Seriously, it's an offensive shitshow.  Buuuuuuuuutttt...their defense is monkey-butt-in-July-in-Kenya nasty.  Like #1 total Defense, #1 passing defense and #5 rushing defense.  The Arky O-line struggled to pass protect against our line...and will continue to struggle against the gusty gaytors.  Throw in a significantly better defensive secondary and I see a couple of pick-sixes going the way of the scaly reptiles.  Ugly, ugly day for the Hogs.
