USC is favored by 2.5, UGA is favored by 8.5, Bama is a surprising 1 point underdog, Auburn is favored by 9.5, UF is favored by 3.5, and LSU is too close to call.

I'm sure that's why they are saying it's too close to call. If he plays and is anywhere near 100% I think the Tigers win a tough one. Also what is the status of Joseph Addai for the bowl game?

I think LSU will lose especially if Jamarcus Russell cant play, plus Miami lost there last game so they got somethin to prove.

Miami beat UVA 25-17 in their last game.

My bad, well they still have somethin to prove since they lost to GT and were shut out of the ACC championship game.

Word is still out on Russell. He may not be able to play. Addai should be close to 100% by that time.

All talk radio shows in this area are calling for Mile's head already. It was revealed that the Thursday night before the Championship Game, he went to Dallas with Skip Bertman (Athletic Director) to lobby for the Cotton Bowl in case LSU lost!!! People are fuming that he would leave before such an important game. No way Nick Saban would have ever done anything like that!

Well, it depends which less-U or scUM team shows up. If it's scUM/VT against less-U/uga, it could get ugly. But I don't think so. Less-U has enough speed, maybe more speed, and scUM doesn't have an imaginative offense. Pellini's blitzing schemes should quiet any kind of Cane running game. And scUM really relies on their play-action pass game to generate offense.

Tigers < 15

We're gonna jump all over texas tech and their little bell ringer a hole. It'll be fun to play someone outside of the SEC west for a change.
