Pre-Dick-Shuns Week Dix

[Snaggletiger]

So, Auburn gets off the schneid, although I’m not sure what a Scheid is.  Anyway, Auburn got off it.  Quite telling that 2 weeks ago, we all looked at a loss to Vandy as a given.  The Pavia hat trick.  Still could happen, but a great performance all around against UK on the road put a spring back in the ole step.  Decent games this week again.  Love this time of year.

THE Ohio State @ Penn State (OSU -3.5) In the past 2-3 weeks, tOSU has looked quite beatable, but they’re still favorites going to Ghey Valley.  Something tells me that line is due to the fact that PSU NEVER wins this type of game. They just don’t, and always look like they’re choking on a big cock.  I think they choke again, because the Buckeyes do play some stout D.

Ohio State:  35

Penn State:  24


Ole Miss @ Arkansas (OM -7) This game is always one you have to strap on and strap in.  These two have played some of the wildest games imaginable in years past.  I don’t see this one being any different.  The Hogs are exponentially better than last year, but still highly inconsistent.  I think this one is another barn burner, but I’ll take the Johnny Black Bear Landshark Rebels

Ole Miss:  42

Arkansas:  38


Florida @ FUGA (FUGA -16.5)  The World’s Biggest Cocktail Party happens again Saturday.  I’ve said for weeks that Florida is better than they’ve been given credit for.  FUGA is better across the board, but also inconsistent.  I hate (like) the Dawgs in a close one.

FUGA:  27

Florida:  21


Vanderbilt @ Auburn (AU -6.5) I keep looking at these lines, and scratching my bald head.  However, I also resign myself to the fact that I know squat, and the Vegas boys know what’s up! I read where Pavia had to leave the Texas game for a bit, but finished it out injured.  Clark Lea only says he’s really banged up, but I have no idea what the injury is, or if he’s just blowing smoke.  If Pavia doesn’t play, I like the Tigers in a cake walk.  If he’s healthy, I still like our chances, but I think it will be a sphincter tightening experience. I’m assuming he plays.

Auburn:  27

Vanderbilt:  24

Feel free to opine, talk amongst your own selves, or basically bugger off.

Penn State:  17

I think tOSU wins out until the CFB Playoff. Penn State will hang tough, but I look for the ball to bounce the Buckeye’s way too many times for it to stay as close as it should.

Ole Miss:  24
Arkansas:  28

As GH would say, transitive property in college football is not a thing that can be relied upon. However, if Arkansas chews up clock and focuses on the ground game? Give me Pitt’s Tits for the Dub.

FUGA:  35
Florida:  14

Florida comes back down to earth a bit against this salty defense that fuck Georgia deploys. Probably close for a half before the more talented team pulls away convincingly.

Auburn:  21
Vanderbilt:  24

Until I see it consistently, I am still not picking Auburn to win the rest of the season (LaMo included). If they somehow pull this one off with a similar makeup of what we saw against KY Lube, then I’ll change my tune. Until then, I pick us to lose ‘em closely at the end of the game the rest of the way. Please let me be wrong here. If we do win, watch out the rest of the way. Would love to hand the turds their third loss at season’s end.

Ohio State 27
Penn State 17
Ohio State has been in tough games, knows they how to win multiple ways, and seems relatively healthy.

Georgia 30
Florida 13
The Dawgs Death Star looks fully operational (as fully as they one is gonna be) and while the Gators won't make it easy, there's only so much they can do.

Pitt 25
SMU 23
Pitt's got a for real defense. If the offense wakes back up, the Ponies won't be able to match them blow for blow. Keep sleeping on Pitt at your own peril.

Texas A&M 24
South Carolina 13
TAMU's defense is the brother that'll smother your mother and tell your sister that he loves her. Beamer is still a clown and his one-sided team can't do enough to get this. No idea why the line is so close.

Iowa 34
Wisconsin 20
Iowa has a functional offense this year and Wisconsin doesn't seem more than cheese of the Swiss variety.

Auburn 19
Vanderbilt 16
I'm leaning on hope that Paivia is actually beat up enough that our spies on defense can keep him in check. Lean on the 27 and other RBs, grind out a win, and get on to the ULM game before facing execution to the cult and the cousin humpers.
