Week 9 Preview: Could Ole Miss put Jimbo in semi-serious trouble?

It’s a quiet schedule this week, with just five SEC games this week. One game – that was usually one of the brightest parts of the SEC calendar but has recently lost its luster – is Georgia v Florida/The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party – is now expected to be an ass-kicking. There’s only one ranked match-up (No.19 Kentucky at No.3 Tennessee), while No.15 Ole Miss’ trip to Texas A&M might well be one of the most interesting games on the schedule. The reason why? A loss to Ole Miss puts Texas A&M at a truly terrible 3-5 – which is not something that college football thought would happen in 2022. Honestly, most of us expected them to fight for

Prayers from the SEC

As we know, the ‘Supreme’ Court made a ruling yesterday that public school officials could pray, because it’s a First Amendment thing. With that in mind, here’s a few public SEC figures that we think could deliver one hell of a prayer. And this includes Texas and Oklahoma, because we believe in Prophecy (Manning 3: 42). Nick Saban: “Lord, please let me have all the National Championships, all the five-star recruits, have $1 billion for NIL, and to beat everyone into the ****ing ground every year.” Auburn: “Lord, please show us another head coach after you rid us of Evil Brian mid-season. And we pray that it’s not the return of that tool TT, who has proved to be an embarrassment

The SEC Future: How a 3-6 schedule would work

Everyone talked about the new SEC schedule. Regardless of what Greg Sankey would love to say, the SEC is going to follow the Pac-12 – (and Big 12 a few years before that, incidentally), and go for a system where the best two team in the SEC play each other in the SEC Championship Game. And that system would be 9 games, and not 8. One thing’s that’s not going to happen is the ‘1-8 schedule’ (1 permanent rival, and 7 revolving rivals), because that will mean that a lot of key TV assets won’t play each other, not to mention Georgia v Auburn, or Alabama v LSU, and Texas v Texas A&M. There are some people who like the

SEC Preview: Ole Miss is all gas

If you love old school Big 12 or Pac-12 football, where they put up a kiddy amount of points and no-one plays any defense, then Ole Miss was your favorite team last year. Averaging 39.2 points per game and 555 yards per game, the Rebels worried every defense in the country. And boy (if you love your offense) was it fun. But Ole Miss was lousy at defense. They were worst in the SEC in giving up points, rushing yards allowed, second-last in passing yards allowed, and total yards. Nationally, the best they had defensive (points allowed), ranked…..117th. So boy (if you love your defense) it was miserable. So in an effort to not make any depressed, we’re not going

Prayers: Ole Miss player airlifted from practice

Ole Miss freshman tight end DaMarcus Thomas has been airlifted from practice in Oxford after an injury left him without any feeling in his body, according to reports. Thomas later was reported to have had a little feeling in his extremities, but prior to that, Lane Kiffin said: “Player potentially severely injured….was hit and hasn’t moved since. A helicopter’s on its way now. I’ve got to do my job for the game whenever it is but nothing seems very important right now.” The good news – now – is that feeling has returned to Thomas’ body. Ole Miss assistant AD Phil Jernigan tweeted: “Following the injury at practice this morning, Damarcus traveled by ambulance to Baptist Memorial Hospital in Oxford

Week 6 SEC Preview: LSU – Auburn and A&M-Arkansas highlight the show

This week it’s normal one of the craziest games on the SEC Calendar: LSU vs Auburn. We’ve had burning buildings, missed kicks at the end, last-second touchdowns and the end of Les Miles’ tenure. The Geaux Tigers have won 3 in row and 7 of the last ten, but of those last three games, they’ve been settled by a TOTAL of eight points. With no-one thinking about both sides seriously, it should be fun to at least watch, praying for a Big 12 game to once again break out in Jordan-Hare (if you’ve got the over!). Elsewhere, one of the SEC West’s most underrated rivalries takes place at Kyle Field instead of Arlington, which is unfortunate bearing in mind just how awesome
