SEC Preview – Week 8 – Mississippi vs. Auburn

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

Ed Orgeron will have Mississippi ready to face the Auburn Tigers on Saturday. Tommy Tuberville’s Tigers had a shot to beat LSU last week and let it slip away, so I expect a very fired up team to show up for Auburn. I think it will take a solid effort on their part to beat [...]

SEC Preview – Week 8 – Mississippi State vs. Kentucky

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

This is a sleeper upset waiting to happen. Kentucky is spent after LSU and Florida and this is a Mississippi State team that beat Auburn. They have something to prove and a tired beat up Kentucky team better bring it. My Prediction: Kentucky 28 Mississippi State 20

Should it surprise us that South Florida lost to Rutgers?

Friday, October 19th, 2007

No. Rutgers came into this season ranked 16th in the AP Poll. Their season took slide when they lost 2 in a row against Maryland and Cincinnati, but this is a good team. South Florida was way overrated. They beat a good Auburn team on the road. That’s a good win, but that doesn’t make [...]

Eastern Michigan vs. Michigan Preview

Friday, October 5th, 2007

Michigan should be on track to move to continue their winning ways as they face the Eagles of Eastern Michigan. It’s a local battle. The Eagles are located just up the road in Ypsilanti. Lloyd Carr did some coaching at EMU, and seems like he’s helping out his old program by giving them exposure. Chad [...]

SEC Preview for week 6 It all starts with a big game Thursday between Kentucky and South Carolina and keeps going Saturday with a number of good matchups. Here’s a look at three big SEC games this week: Kentucky vs South Carolina This was once a game that had little to no impact on the [...]

Saturday Shake-Up

Sunday, September 30th, 2007

In week five things got interesting, and week six will change the landscape. College football showed why it is a beautiful thing this last week. Heavily favored teams went out and were beat by teams with lower quality personnel. Texas, Oklahoma, Florida and Alabama were all upset. Washington and California were games that said a [...]

Michigan vs. Northwestern Preview

Thursday, September 27th, 2007

The Wolverines can’t possibly lose this game. Can they? Northwestern lost to Duke. A couple of things that I know. Michigan has consistently had trouble with Northwestern. For some reason the Wildcats play Michigan tough. Northwestern runs a version of the spread offense that gave Michigan fits against Appalachian State and Oregon. Thankfully Northwestern’s version [...]

Michigan drops fourth straight

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007

624 of total offense for the Ducks, 7 points for Michigan, 2 losses at home, 4 losses in a row, and ultimately 1 person to blame… Lloyd Carr. I have given him a long leash. He hasn’t beat Ohio State in 3 years. That makes me cringe, but it’s not something that should cost him [...]

Michigan loses to Appalachian State

Saturday, September 1st, 2007

I quit. I just can’t take it anymore. Michigan losing at home to Appalachian State has pushed me over the edge. I know that people will be calling for Lloyd Carr’s job for this one. I can’t make an argument against it. This is 3 straight losses. Two of them were big ones, Ohio State [...]

SEC Intro

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

We are getting close to kickoff. As we look forward to another year of SEC football I am getting ready to do some college football writing for Vigilante Sports. I happen to be a person who thinks that in college football there is one conference that is very special, and that is the South Eastern [...]
