Alabama - South Carolina
Arkansas - Troy
Auburn - Kentucky
LSU - Mississippi State
Mississippi State - MTSU
Ole Miss - Auburn

Florida - Kentucky
Georgia - Tennessee
Kentucky - UL-Monroe
South Carolina - Arkansas
Tennessee - Vanderbilt
Vanderbilt - Rice
An excellent list. South Carolina may also be a trap game for both Florida and Georgia.

Auburn might have some issues with La Tech, but I wouldn't call it a "trap" game regardless. If Auburn struggles with La Tech, it will be because the players have not yet adjusted to new systems. A trap game implies Auburn looks past La Tech. I cannot imagine the new coaching staff doing allowing this to happen. Last year's staff did not get fired for losing to superior teams - they got fired for losing to teams with less talent and to losing so badly to Bama when they had enough talent for a much closer game.

Exactly and I think they will.

Good points. I don't think Auburn looks past La Tech either. I just think it's a game they could potentially lose to a team who has inferior talent. But I agree, I think if the Tigers struggle, it will be attributed to the fact that they do not have their offensive system set in place yet. I think that will keep the game relatively low-scoring, thus keeping the Bulldogs in it.
MIRACLES HAPPEN!

I think that's a pretty solid list. Although I do think Auburn will handle La Tech easily.

I like how you picked Auburn as our trap game. People keep saying that South Carolina is our trap game, but I don't think anyone would be surprised if we lost that game.

I agree its not really a trap game but I can see where he is coming from. UGA is expected to be better than UT and beat them but there is a good chance Tenn is 4-1 heading into that game looking to make it 5-1 heading into the 3rd Saturday in October. UGA game is the game I've circled because we will find out what kind of team we are.

I think Auburn's trap game is in week 1. And I'm not just saying this to stir crap up. I really do think LA Tech is going to give the Aubies all they can stand.

Whoa, calm down there buddy.

I was just poking fun at the series because I find it funny that EVERYONE calls it the third Saturday in October when it rarely is. Hence the smiley dudes at the end of my post.
