Post Week 11 SEC rankings: No beastiality thanks, but LSU rule

LSU’s band’s commitment to asking Alabama fans to commit beastiality on Mike The Tiger was evident on Saturday night, after the Tigers finally beat Alabama 46-41 in Tuscaloosa. It was a fantastic game. LSU plundered points from Alabama miscues, flying out to a 33-13 lead at half-time, before deciding to play conservatively, helping the Tide to roar back within 6. Then Joe Brady took the microphone back over, the spread offense which has entertained us all season long came back into action, and Clyde Edwards-Helaire’s touchdown in the final breaths of the game virtually confirmed victory. And to make matters better, Justin Jefferson, brother of one of the most hated LSU quarterbacks in history (Jordan), caught the onside kick that sealed

Chad Morris is fired by Arkansas

The pigs finally put their own to sleep as Arkansas fired Chad Morris on Sunday after the Razorbacks were thumped 45-19 by Western Kentucky. There wasn’t a lot nice to say about Morris’ reign in Arkansas. He had a total of 4 wins in his tenure, and none of them were SEC wins. He will walk away with $10 million, after originally coming along in a six-year, $21 million contract. ESPN has pointed out that under the terms of his contract, the Razorbacks still owe him 70% of the remaining salary. In other words, no-one is feeling two sorry for him – especially after the team continued to lose in the SEC (17 game streak), and be utterly porous In

Who wins College Football’s biggest showdown?

It’s hard not be excited about this weekend’s clash between LSU and Alabama in Tuscaloosa. College Gameday’s excited. CBS is excited. The SEC is excited. The 100,000 fans who are going to be there are excited, plus the thousands who are going to be tailgating. The College Football Play-Off Committee – who voted LSU No.2 and Alabama as No3 – is excited. Oh, and Donald Trump’s excited. He just loves college football, man, he’s not there for political capital or anything. This is going to be a showdown of offenses. Both are sizzling right now. Joe Burrow and Tua Tagovailoa have got their offenses on afterburn, helped by explosive future NFL wide receivers on both sides. The defenses? Both have looked

LSU boots top defensive player Divinity

LSU has released its top tackler Michael Divinity, head coach Ed Orgeron said today. ‘Coach O’ confirmed the news, saying that Divinity moved on for ‘disciplinary reasons’. Divinity had 17 tackles, three sacks and one forced fumble for the Tigers this year, and had compiled over 100 tackles, 17 tackles for loss and eight sacks in just 29 games for the school.

If Georgia wins out, the Play-Off Committee has problems

The day we’ve all been waiting for is coming on Thursday. No, it’s not Armageddon our chance to be taken up to heaven. No, it’s not that time that we get the call from Heidi Klum offering to meet her for a date. It’s better than that. It’s the first release of the College Football Play-Off Committee’s 1-2-3-4. This Tuesday the Committee rated their 1 to 4 as Ohio State, LSU, Alabama and Penn State. Clemson was 5th, Georgia 6th, followed by Oregon, Utah, Oklahoma and Florida. In other words, the SEC owned the Top 10. But if Georgia wins out, this could create a monstrous nightmare for the Committee. THE IDEAL SCENARIO: Alabama beats LSU comfortably/ LSU beats Alabama

After Week 10: How good is Georgia?

We admit it. We followed the bandwagon and predicted that Florida would beat Georgia at the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. After all, Florida was bringing back two of its biggest defensive guns in Zuniga and Grennard. Georgia had been uninventive. Todd Grantham was incredible. Dan Mullen was on the rise, while Kirby was going to the other way. Hell, a former Florida cheerleader yelled at me for having the nerve to tell her that I thought Georgia had a chance. “We’re going to Atlanta!”, she said. And then stomped off when I suggested that Aaron Hernandez was perhaps not The Swamp’s greatest alum. So with her in mind I laughed my butt off when my prediction went wrong and

Drama on the Plains as Gatewood leaves Auburn

Game 7 of the World Series is drama enough. There are the ups, downs, shocks, disappointments and celebrations. You know, like Auburn’s season…..every year. Well, this year the drama increased when it was announced that freshman quarterback Joey Gatewood has left the team. He said in a Twitter update: “Throughout this process I have experienced highs and lows, trials and tribulations.” He added that he had been committed to the program since 2015, but added: “It is in the best interest of my family that I move forward”. Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn said: “I really appreciated Joey. When you think about it, when he didn’t win the job earlier, he chose to stick around. Most quarterbacks this day and

Should Mississippi State fire Joe Moorhead?

Twitter’s great in the morning. You can catch up with the daily highlights, wonder why people wake up and immediately write about hating or loving things about Donald Trump (DRINK SOME COFFEE PEOPLE!), as well as the usual prayer requests, sniping between Georgia and Florida fans, SEC rankings, excited-about-the-future Vols pictures (CUE HALF-NAKED MAN IN ORANGE AND WHITE OVERALLS)…..and a number of Mississippi State fans already asking for the head of Joe Moorhead. After all, the Bulldogs have lost four straight, including a stunning loss on the road to Tennessee and blowouts by Auburn and LSU. It’s been miserable. This season, we’ve seen the Cowbells that were so loud last year have gone very, very quiet. It’s gotten so bad that

After Week 9: Still trying to work out the top of the SEC…

Even more annoying than Gary Danielson’s voice, the CBS break-f0r-advert music, and SEC’s non-understanding of the holding law on Saturday was trying to work out – some hours after the dust had settled – who in the hell was the best team in the SEC. LSU’s offense had been stymied by Auburn, but still did enough to win (if Auburn had had any offense, this article might be different). Alabama destroyed Arkansas…….but it was Arkansas. At the bottom, it’s easier. Arkansas is the bum of the division, and might well be one of the worst Power-5 teams in the country (CONFIDENT BET: They would beat Rutgers). I also went 4-1 straight-up this week, only missing out on Missouri’s abysmal performance against

Week 9 SEC Predictions: LSU vs Auburn…..and the rest

It’s Week 9 of the college football. Sadly. We don’t have a lot of this beautiful season left, but let’s enjoy this year, shall we? After all, there’s still some games to go to. This week’s the one that a lot of people look forward to: LSU and Auburn. It’s not necessarily for the rivalry itself (both teams hate Alabama with vehemence), but for the fact that for some reason there seems to be weird things happening every time the teams play. It’s been a game where we’ve seen incredible ineptitude at field goals (Auburn’s John Vaughn – five of them – in 2005), that saw the firing of a once-beloved coach (Les Miles, 2016), cigar smoking (Auburn players in
