I've never been so happy for a bye week.

[OleMissCub]

This is going to be an utter disaster.

Last year's OU game feels like a million years ago.

[imb]

to be fair, i should have said they havent "been that bad" and we've played nobodies, so who knows

[Old Style]

Hotty Toddy! Free shot at Alabama.

I will be rooting for an upset here.

[Derwood]

Going for 5-0 4-1

[Soul]

Should be a good time watching Manziel bitch-slap Bielema's crew.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

LSU vs Georgia should be a good game.

[OleMissCub]

`1`

LSU vs Georgia should be a good game.

 

LSU is probably better than Bama this year based on what I've seen. LSU has a much harder path than Bama. The SEC is down this year yet, save for USCe, they play every SEC team that is decent. At Georgia, At Ole Miss, At Bama, Florida and then A&M. There is most surely a loss somewhere in there. Now look at what Bama has left in SEC: Ole Miss at home, at Miss St, at Kentucky, LSU at home, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Auburn. Their only potential loss in there is LSU and maaaaaybe Ole Miss, but both of those are home games.

 

Bama is not what they have been the past few years, I think that much is certain.

[Andy]

Hopefully UCF competes with South Carolina, because there's not much else of note going on in the early games.

[Guest]

Ugh, two bye weeks in the first five weeks of the season.

[EhDubya]

Penn State wins their BYE week, gets some scholarships back that never should've been taken away.

Funny.

[Derwood]

This isn't surprising at all. I would have been more shocked if the penalties had stayed intact for all four years. I'm expecting a bowl ban reduction at some point as well

[SpongeWorthy]

Remember when I was supposed to be grateful that USC didn't get the death penalty

Your AD is probably on the phone with the NCAA right now

[treebird]

in fairness, penn state has now gone a school-record three consecutive years without covering up any child rapes. ncaa gotta recognize.

It doesn't matter because Pat Haden is the world's worst negotiator.

 

Like how he sticks up for Kiffin because he think he's leading the charge for the imaginary Kiffin backers.
