As I first began looking ahead to another lackluster weekend of college football action in the SEC, it occurred to me that there’d probably be more good games if there weren’t so many mediocre teams. Take that for whatever it’s worth as you consider the fact that I went 5...

As has become the norm this season, the Southeastern Conference is a hodgepodge, with two remarkably even teams atop the league and a placeholder separating them both from a vast swath of indistinguishable mediocrity resting upon a soft base centered in Nashville. Here is how...

I’m not going to lie to you: I got home from Saturday night’s win between the hedges at 2:30 in the morning after what had already been a full week and a full weekend, so, this week, I started with the final draft of last week’s BlogPoll ballot and adjusted teams based upon...

"This Auburn Team Is Special"
It's Sanford Stadium, not "Samford Stadium."
He's A.J. Green, not "A.J. Greene." (A.J. Greene is, in fact, an Auburn player.)

Georgia is currently 1.5 games ahead of the Vols in the SEC standings with two games to play, so unless Georgia blows it this week against Kentucky, the Dawgs will lock up the second spot in the East. But if Tennessee is within a game of Georgia -- which means they'd have to...

Games between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Auburn Tigers are not always close---see 2004 and 2007---but, historically, this has been a series hallmarked by tight ballgames, as befits a rivalry as ancient and storied as this one. Of the 113 clashes between these two teams, 49 have...

This is the big one. We've played the Plainsmen more times than anyone. We've lost to the Plainsmen more times than anyone. They've sabotaged more of our successful seasons than anyone. (The loss to the Gators in 2002 was a mere speed bump in comparison to the losses...

I was feeling moderately all right about this one until Senator Blutarsky reminded me about the turnovers and I was sent into a tailspin by MaconDawg’s exegesis of the chess match between Bobby Fischer and SpongeBob SquarePants X’s and O’s battle between Gus Malzahn and Willie...

I started with the national games of interest this week, so now I need to circle back around to look at the Southeastern Conference slate. My 6-1 ledger in last week’s league picks left me at 57-10 for the fall, but, honestly, I should’ve gone 7-0 against last Saturday...

The comments left after my initial BlogPoll ballot draft made up in quality what they lacked in quantity, so I was persuaded to inch the LSU Tigers ahead of the USC Trojans (hopefully without reigniting any billboard wars over the 2003 national championship!), rank the Auburn Tigers...

For me, at least, today is a busy day in what is going to be a busy week, so I can't afford to take Tuesday off, but, if you're a loyal booster of the Georgia Bulldogs and you're in a position to call in sick today, I strongly encourage you to do so, for today is an...

I’m not sure whether to call 2009 "The Year of the Mid-Major" (Boise State and Texas Christian are in the top six; Houston, Utah, Brigham Young, and Central Michigan all are ranked, as well) or "The Year of the Little Brother" (Pittsburgh is ranked higher...
