SEC Preview: Bulldogs roll into Ole Miss, and course, Bama-LSU

Georgia’s off to its second rough road game in three games, this time rolling into Oxford, where expectancy’s back to being sky-high after the Rebs smashed Arkansas on the road. Had they lost that, Lane Kiffin might be facing the hurricane of rage — as well as an almost-certain miss from a play-off spot. It’s gonna be fun in Oxford. It’s also Bama-LSU weekend, which is going to get everyone very excited. It’s also going to be a lot of fun because of the level of jeopardy on this, with the loser likely not to make the play-off.

WEEK 6: SEC RANKINGS ARE ALL ****ED UP

I joked on Saturday night that my SEC rankings were this: 1-15: F**k knows 16: Mississippi State. And that’s probably right. Texas is the No.1 team in the nation and – by virtue of not playing while the unbridled carnage was happening around – would go as No.1 in my view. But are they really better than Georgia? Does Vanderbilt’s win over Alabama automatically mean that they are better than Alabama? Or Arkansas’ win over Tennessee mean that Sam Pittman’s team is better than the Vols? If you believe those guys at the AP Poll – who have Texas first, Georgia fifth (behind Ohio State, Oregon and Penn State), Miami sixth and Alabama seventh. Tennessee is 8th, Ole Miss 9th, LSU 13th,
