Screw the $EC. They lose 5 games this week, and will move up in the polls.
Yeah, cuz Auburn should be punished for Tennessee and Missouri losing.

Is McCaffrey playing a thing?  Or pre-planned?
What's the difference between "a thing" and preplanned? There's been lots of talk about 2QB snaps and putting in Dylan for 2+ drives per game to prep him for next year or in case of a Shea injury this year. But when Dylan went in today, it was also because the game was (realistically) over. It's why the other 2nd and 3rd teamers soon followed Dylan out there.

The lower teams in the SEC looked pretty bad indeed, Arkansas pulled out a win as did Florida (over a semi-decent opponent).

Auburn struggled to pull out a win late obviously, but against a good opponent, some luck involved in that one I think.

The Vols were supposed to be "semi-back", and obviously are "semi-bad", or worse.

UGA looked good for three drives and seemed to want to get fancy or something.  They could have run on every down.

They were for their first three drives, then not so much I thought.  I think they could have run the ball for 7-8-9 yards a play but I guess they wanted to work out some kinks and pass some, which makes sense at that point.  Their WR corps is all new in effect, not a single receiver back.

A "fan" nearly always expects "more".  Ha.

How many pro sports are in action right now?  I know baseball is just getting into the late season push.  I guess the NBA is still playing, I don't follow them at all.  The NFL is about to kick off, so to speak.  MSL soccer.

Sorry.

"A thing" = ohhh, whoa, why is HE in there?  Is Patterson hurt?  Benched?  

"Pre-planned" = it's all part of the plan, nothing to see here, mooooove along!

Ah, could be both. I think Shea also may have had "a thing" after a 2nd half hit. Maybe ribs. Not sure if it's something to watch.

Jesus, OU and Lincoln Riley just might have their 3rd straight transfer QB Heisman.
