[playthrough]

Forty damn points for my alma mater at TOSU. Take a bow, Tom Allen, it takes some work to get to that level.

 

[Songbird]

UCLA should be careful. Arizona's got some of the best WRs in the land.

 

[Cosmo]

TCU is a seven-point dog? Seems a touch high.

 

[swingline]

Mizzou a 21-point dog seems too low. I see a massacre coming

Roll Wave! Tulane's first all ranked home matchup since 1939.

Gameday should have gone there but alas, let's go to Texas again

 

[Chef2]

LSU (-3) is a gift. That line should be 13, not 3.
Take Oregon.
Take whatever the over is on Wake-UNC and UCF-Tulane.
Take Ole Miss (+11.5)

UCLA should be careful. Arizona's got some of the best WRs in the land.

I agree. I like UCLA as a team, but they seem to have trouble really blowing people out. They were up 25 and cruising on Arizona State and almost let them come back. That got as close as six points before UCLA finally put it away. Arizona is just frisky enough to keep that margin under 20 if they play halfway decent. 'Cats have lost four in a row but hung with USC and Washington.

Mizzou a 21-point dog seems too low. I see a massacre coming

I'm going the other way on this one. Four of Missouri's five losses have been by a touchdown or less. The only game they got destroyed in was at Kansas State. I think they're the pesky team that plays just well enough to lose. It's just a shame this will be the last game they're getting a ton of points in.
I don't like Mizzou to win, but I do like them if that number stays at +21 or above. Especially if Tennessee has any sort of hangover from the Georgia game.

Take Ole Miss (+11.5)

I like this one, too. Maybe even a flyer on Ole Miss to win outright. Alabama probably should be 5-4 right now, and this is not a position they're in often or anyone is used to seeing them in. If Ole Miss is anywhere near healthy they can certainly hang with Bama.

Pretty good read on Cadillac Williams, who has caught the imagination of Auburn and Bama fans alike so far.

Good story. Better that he wasn't just offered top jobs because of his name.

Just hoping someone keeps Cadillac in mind as the offseason looms because the new AD will want his coach, who in turn will want his own staff.

Right now Auburn fans would revolt if he wasn't included on the next staff. Of course they could lay an egg against Western Kentucky and that would be the end of that. But worst case scenario, I'd expect he could get back on the Gus Bus at UCF.
