I think I was listening to the packers game against Detroit and they thought a flag against Detroit for pass interference--66 yard penalty. quite the heave I would say. haven't seen or heard a longer penalty

Have you thought of one?

[THE_WIZARD_]

I think we win 28-11 or something close.

Kentucky Wildcats at No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide (-35)

Noon, ESPN

It might not sound like a smart move to lay five touchdowns in an SEC game, but I’m willing to do so here.

Coach Nick Saban has the most talented team in the country and has them playing to the final gun each week. The Tide does have road trips to Arkansas and Tennessee on deck, but the defense has a shot at the shutout. Over the past two weeks they have heard Florida has “the best defense in the country” and how the Gators held Kentucky to nine first downs and 149 yards in Week 2, with 65 of those yards coming on a drive for a garbage touchdown with 4:45 left and Florida up 45-0. Alabama has a slightly better defense and a much stronger offense.

In the second half vs. Southern Miss, first half vs. South Carolina and four quarters vs. Florida, Kentucky had one field goal and that garbage touchdown as their only scores. Kentucky gave up 44, 45 and 42 points in their first three games. Meanwhile, my computer has Alabama scoring 52.

With the look ahead, I’ll cut that down to 48. I don’t see the Tide defense allowing a touchdown, and the number will seem cheap by the end of the game.

Kentucky’s Week 6 matchup with Vanderbilt is actually more important for their bowl chances.

ATS pick: Alabama
Score: Alabama 48, Kentucky 6


I'm saying Bama 51, Kentucky 9

Saban won't let them score, he wants to make a point to the football rankings

[hedge]

Kentucky might have something to say about that!!!

[Jungle Rat]

Saban is gonna play vanilla like e said.

[eCat]

Miami can't get much going so far

Vols 7

I dreamed UK beat Bama 83 - 7 last night

I woke up and was like...aww shit, its only Friday

The dolphin player that missed that open field tackle to give AJ Green the TD shouldn't be on the field after that.

[crotch]

Should be a great game....

We're in Columbia this weekend for the SC/aTm game. aTm is well represented from what I can see. Their fans are everywhere and appear well-mannered and clean. It's going to be interesting in the stadium today, as the team colors for both teams are very similar. I am sensing tepid enthusiasm from the USC crowd. I'd love to see an aTm route...

[Bklyn]

Heh @ "clean."

eCat/Crotch:

Your boys played hard. I had no idea that you had the fewest seniors of any team in Division 1. Met some good fans. Better days are ahead.

[Jungle Rat]

So your third string came in late first quarter?

Couldn't understand the constant running up the middle against the best D in the country...Coaching staff is clueless.

The captain nodded. He folded his hands between his knees. What do you think of the treaty? he said.

The kid looked at the man on the settle next to him. He had his eyes shut. He looked down at his thumbs. I dont know nothin about it, he said.

I'm afraid that's the case with a lot of Americans, said the captain. Where are you from, son?

Tennessee.

You werent with the Volunteers at Monterrey were you?

No sir.

Bravest bunch of men under fire I believe I ever saw. I suppose more men from Tennessee bled and died on the field in northern Mexico than from any other state. Did you know that?

No sir.

They were sold out. Fought and died down there in that desert and then they were sold out by their own country.

The kid sat silent.

Goddam, you love Blood Meridian.

It was apt...
