46-41, good for a total of 87 combined points. I’ll tally the guesses later.  Looks like, for once, my analysis of the game was pretty accurate.  Bama and Tua did indeed look rusty when the game started.

So much for defense in the SEC as well.

87 is the LSU-Alabama total.

98 (Texas-Kansas) still stands as the Big 12 high total.

So the difference is 11 points.

The SEC is a great football conference, don't get me wrong.  But with that being said, we live in a time of narratives and hoaxes.

Dare I say, I don't see the distance between the SEC and other conferences that the media would have you believe.  What I do see, is that the SEC is a money maker.  That cannot be denied.  So by virtue of revenues, perhaps that's where we get the narrative.

Well, that and Bama dominating CFB the last decade.

Ok this weeks Question is about OU/Baylor.  Surprisingly Baylor is undefeated and ranked #12, OU is #9 with one loss.  

What will be the total points scored combined by both teams, Price is Right Rules.

lots and lots of points, would be my guess.  Hopefully I'll remember to check back in before the weekend with my guess. :)

"Price is Right Rules"?

Does that mean 1 over is worse than 1,000 under?

If so, 55.

You can't guess over, only equal or under.  A one point guess over will default to last.

So what's worse, Gigem?  Being one-over, or not entering a guess at all?

As it sits, you and I are the only entrants, and we have the same guess.

This is taking half-assery to a new high.  Or is that a new low?

I’m sorry. I didn’t realize you had already guessed 55.  I’m not sure it really matters since you have a commanding lead and pretty much won the season 2 weeks ago. 

I’ll revise mine to 56.

Oh, I wasn't complaining.  I figured we'd end in a tie for first, or last.  ;)
