Why don’t we just call Saturday’s SEC Championship game what it really is? Look at the facts: The regular season has been played in full. Two teams have been consistently rated #1 and #2 over the course of the entire season. They are undefeated, and though they are among six teams who can all claim that, [...]

Thanks to everyone for your great ideas yesterday. Using the flag as TP stands out as good advice (though, I do think even that would serve to raise the flag to a higher status than it’s worth…) And then, of course, the posting of ”45-14″ (the UGA-USC win record in this matchup) to serve as a [...]

No point in intro’s, let’s just dive right in… Arkansas at LSU: (Friday, 2:30)Ar-Kan-Saw or Ar-Kan-Sas? Poe-Tay-Toe or Poe-Tah-Toe? Forgive Les Miles’ apparent speech impediment, or simple ignorance of his northerly neighbor’s proper pronunciation. He’s been Blue this week, or thinking Blue at least. This is great.
