Sucks that ASU lost to UNLV. Now Georgia has nothing to gain from flying out west to beat a Pac-1 team.

The schedule this weekend is not as exciting as it should be.

You got that right jack. If only USC and Oklahoma played this week, otherwise, this week is boring.

This will be the week of upsets.

I'm pumped for the CU/WV game tonight. Hopefully Colorado comes out of the gates strong - can't have another letdown first half and expect to make up lost ground in the second half.

Yeah I might flip back and forth through that game and the Astros/Marlins Game. I really want to see Darrell Scott play tonight for the 1st time. Cody Hawkins is a good QB in the Big, but I see WV coming out scoring in the game. Pat White and Noel Devine should rack up some Tds tonight,

Louisville found themselves a keeper in their freshman RB. Dude runs like Felix Jones. Hunter Cantwell looked a lot better than Josh Freeman, though to be fair K-State is pretty awful around him other than one WR. I had little thought of him before but Louisville's center looked like an NFL player, have to check him out more.

WVU has to win tonight, should be a good game.

I'll be at MSU/Notre Dame on Sat. Normally I perfer to be at home on Saturdays and watch as much as possible but this weekend pretty much sucks except for the SEC tilts so I won't miss much.
It's not whether you win or lose, it's how good you look playing the game

what the hell? ASU has got a quality program and could very well upset georgia this weekend. remember the cake walk tennessee had with ucla? it wont be an easy game, the pac-10 has some very tough teams in that conference.

I think that ASU has fallen so far off the radar, that Georgia may not be game ready by kickoff. It's gonna be around 100° at kick off, add some jet lag, an unranked ASU team that was upset by UNLV, and a team that has not performed well as a front runner (UGA).

This may be an upset.......ASU 31 UGA 24

It does suck that ASU has every advantage in their favor, but the heat isn't a factor (Sanford Stadium has been an inferno this year) and Georgia will be ready. I'm gald the voters are stupid and docking them a rank each win, it should keep them on their game. I'm thinking Moreno and company run wild after last week. And LOL at "has not performed well." Georgia isn't a flashy team that's playing for style points. Richt won't run up the score on anyone but maybe Florida if given the chance.

Anyone watching the Baylor vs UConn matchup? Im anxious to see Robert Griffin play for the Baylor Bears. I got Baylor in this one. They should win big tonight.

doesnt really matter really. if georgia doesnt lose to ASU they ll lose at least 2 games in SEC. it is pretty much lock that they wont be playing for national championship.

One of the drawbacks of playing in a good conference. Fortunately winning the SEC is more impressive than winning the NC.

georgia wont even win their own division. even if they do, nobody is going to remember who won the SEC while everybody will remember the national champion.

If you win the SEC you already beat the best the country has to offer so the NC is just a formality. Of course, as an OSU fan you know all about that.

last time i checked USC was on Pac 10 and Oklahoma was in Big 12. beating collectively better group of teams =\= beating the best team.

non sequitur-look it up.
