Pfft.

Belief will make for some good team morale, and it might even power them past Texas A&M on their field*, but it won't do any good when UGA gets on the field.  Harsh reality will set in and I will be vindicated.  



*....who I'm still going to pick.  Dammit, this is not a good team and the logic-defying nonsense has got to end sooner than later.  At this point I'd pick against LSU out of sheer stubbornness.  Somebody will prove me right in the end....if it's not A&M then Georgia will.  A depleted Arkansas almost did it, but no, because they squeaked out a win on a one-man show, the "LSU's resurgence" narrative continues.

I will pick them this week against UAB, in case anyone thinks I've just got too big a case of anti-homerism.

Along with most Tiger fans (purple and gold variety) I watched the Bama/Ole Miss game with interest.  Watching all three teams play on Saturday, it's hard to believe LSU beat the other two.  I don't think I've ever seen a hotter mess bumble their way to a division title.  OTOH, there was the part where Ole Miss fans boo'd an Alabama offensive lineman who went down after a play that moved the chains.....because they thought he was faking it??  It doesn't get any more Ole Miss than that.  I hate those guys. 

The scene at Auburn was pretty memorable.  You don't often see that kind of excitement and enjoyment from a crowd who's coach got fired and who's season tanked.  Cadillac is not a guy you'd hand the keys to the car, but you can't help but root for him during the interim. 

Ugh.  Now I have to go wash my mouth out with soap. 
I mean really the proof's in the puddin'.  Bama almost lost to what, 4 teams now, and two of those were really bad.  OK, one is really bad (A&M), and the other is not good (UTex).  You beat Ole Miss soundly, beat everybody else except what appears to be a rejuvenated UTenn team.  You're in the SEC championship game no matter what.  Why not just take a good thing on face value?  To my knowledge OM has never been in the SEC CCG, neither has A&M, and Miss St has been once.  
Maybe it's just possible BK is a really good coach, and LSU has some really good talent, and has played well?  Enjoy it while it lasts.

Glad OM and Kiffen lost.  I have no issues with OM per se, but I can't stand Kiffen.

I think "we" often like boring coaches who speak coach speak unless they are REALLY clever like SOS.  Kiffen wants to be like SOS but isn't.  Ole Miss did seem to do better than expected though.  I still don't understand how UK could lose to Vandy.

I sometimes snooze through Smart's pressers, he's as boring as anyone.  It's a good thing.  They could send out two written paragraphs mostly about the health of players and be done with it.

WTF Tennessee?  Way to shut the bed. Were they missing a lot of key players or something?  Weird.
