College Football - Week 13 (Thanksgiving Week)

[Formerly Snayke]

The spread on Arkansas-LSU is -13. This game sure is receiving a lot of hype for what's going to be a routine romp.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I think LSU will win, but if I were betting I would take Arkansas and the points.

[Guest]

I don't think Arkansas is nearly on the level of LSU and Bama. I'd take LSU and would gladly give the 13 points. I think it's going to be in line with the Bama-Arkansas game.

[NewUserName]

I am happily taking Arkansas and the points. It may be pure speculation, but games like this at this point of the season always seem to be much closer than the talent would suggest. I think LSU is better but Arkansas will make it closer than 2 TDs

Its been ugly but I'll take a lead anyway I can get it. I love this defense and it will be better next year.

You guys really need some playmakers on offense. Malcolm Brown is the only guy I like. Oline is average, QBs are terrible, WR are nothing - though they're held down by the awful QBs.

Without question. Johnathon Gray next year will help a lot. Two of the top WR are coming next year and they have a legit shot at Beckham-Green. Another true freshman at QB too. Andres Peat or Arik Armstead would be the most important though.

[shnsajax]

Hahaha. Sherman strikes again.

[manbearcub]

I bet these refs won't feel safe for a while.

Hey Nebraska, [expletive] you again.

The SEC should be interesting for them.

[SouthSideRyan]

Wait, that's the Texas school going to the SEC???

 

Good Lord.

[bcl412]

I'm glad Iowa's getting shut out by Nebraska's shitty defense.

Good Lord.

 

but they're REALLY sticking it to texas by leaving, and that's the important thing.

So Arkansas has already scored twice as many points as Bama did.

[Formerly Snayke]

Three Top 15 wins against what has amounted to a 6-6 aTm, a 7-5 Auburn and a South Carolina team that has one signature win (Georgia). Not impressed, Arkansas.

So you discredit South Carolina for having one signature win, but Oregon's fine as a Top 15 team, even though their second best win will have, at most, 7 wins? That makes sense.

So South Carolina and Georgia play a combined 1 game against LSU, Bama, and Arkansas? That's quite the good bit of scheduling fortune on their part.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

LSU is best team in the country and proving it again today.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

There isn't a pair of CB better than Claiborne and Mathieu. Both could play in the NFL right now.

I don't think I said anything about Oregon. I'm merely commenting on how I think Arkansas has been overrated.

"Three top 15 wins" includes Oregon.

Auburn is all that stands in the way of an LSU-Alabama rematch in the National Championship.

Maybe. Virginia and Notre Dame wins tomorrow would complicate things. Oklahoma State will likely be a little better than Alabama in the computers to end the season, so if they find a way to get up to #3 or #4 in the polls after this weekend and have an impressive performance against Oklahoma, that might be enough to convince enough pollsters. If Va Tech and Stanford both win out, I'd say it's almost impossible for Oklahoma State to do enough.
