Bye weeks are the worst weeks, good to be back in action.

3 of them this year. THREE!
 
8 SEC teams in the top 25....there should be 13. Kentucky I'm sorry...


also would be funny if Houston beats BYU. That should jump them ahead of Texas in the "others receiving votes" category.

Seriously. How many losses does Ole Miss have? I'm pretty sure they're better than Stanford or Washington.

Only 3, and all of those teams Ole Miss lost too are currently in the AP 25. Ole Miss beat a very good Texas team by 3 TD's. That's an 8 TD swing from last year. Ole Miss is the real deal, they are only cursed being in the strongest conference and division in the nation.

pls, KLM is going to shut H-town down.

That's right, the Cougs field an airline at OLB. Missions man, they're practically doping.

I thought it was KVN, like Kevin without the vowels. Looks like from the OP's .gif UH "claimed" their field. I wouldn't want to tackle anyone near that endzone

Left out the Reenactment of a date with Chris Brown.


Did they already announce FSU/Clemson was gameday? Normally, they don't do return visits in the same season. (UGA/Clemson)

Betting if Stanford hadn't lost, they'd be out there, unless they already went to Stanford.

Going to be a lot of close games this week. So pumped for Saturday.

Go Noles!
 
Everybody pick Clemson please.

Everyone's going to pick FSU, even Corso. You might as well make your peace with that now.

It was going to be at FSU/Clemson unless Clemson lost last week. They had heavily hinted at it all week, and it's the 8pm ABC game. If gameday was at Stanford, Herbie would've needed to fly completely across the country to Clemson to do the game.

There is absolutely zero chance USC, Notre Dame, FSU, Clemson, Stanford, Oregon, UCLA, Arizona State, Texas A&M, and Louisville lose this week. They're all going to go undefeated and are probably the best college teams in the past 20 years.

Lock of the epoch.

Really, really, butt clenchingly scared for Thursday night. Only 4-5 against UNC since we joined the ACC and more importantly 1-3 on their home field. It's a game we should win by 20+ but I just have a bad, bad feeling.

File under unsubstantiated but delicious rumor:

Kiffin coming to Knoxville

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Folks take this for what its worth. A friend of mine here in Atlanta called me a few minutes ago and told me ESPN has hired Kiffin and it will be announced this week. In fact possibly as soon as Monday. Their plans are to have him in Charlotte this week doing the ESPNU stuff and if all goes well they are planning to send him to Knoxville as part of a three man team to do the Carolina-Tennessee game. My friend knows a broadcaster at ESPN this I know for a fact. He supposdly found out this morning when he called Bristol to get his schedule for the coming week. Tennessee is aware of this and has expressed concerns for security. Guys I might be getting set up here so I repeat take it for what its worth and if Kiffin shows up in Knoxville on Sat. you heard it here first.

Snapped this just now on my way to class. Can't wait to add Clemson to it.


Also just passed the ESPN™ DirectTV™ van parked at the stadium and Jimbo's primer area for interviews starting at 11:00. Hype meter for Clemson week is going off the freaking charts.

We'd have to be underdogs to take sod back to the cemetery. Aren't we favored at this point?

Southern Cal @ ND is definitely the hardest game to pick this week. There are just so many question marks. U-Dub @ ASU is pretty though to pick too.

And I just can't pick FSU to win on the road, even though the hope is slowly building up inside me that they will.

We'd have to be underdogs to take sod back to the cemetery. Aren't we favored at this point?

It's a rivalry at this point so they'll probably make it a sod game anyway.

I thought Carolina was playing Miami this week? Or are they having Kiffin do an NFL game?

In the south, when people refer to Carolina, they're most likely talking about the Gamecocks. Nobody gives a shit about the Panthers. But you're probably joking so I just enabled the joke to go even further.

Actually, they're most likely talking about the Tarheels.
