Well, we’ve had better weeks than Week 10. I’m blaming NIL and the transfer portal.
Last Week: 5-4 (55.6%)
This Week: 0-0 (0.0%)
Overall: 80-34 (70.2%)
There are a few intriguing matchups this week. Most importantly, Auburn can’t lose.
11/9
Florida at Texas – It’s weird. Florida has looked *slightly* better than it looked like they would. They even put out a statement that they are keeping their coach. Texas has looked good against middle of the road teams and was destroyed by the only really good team they’ve played. Florida is a middle of the road team.
Texas 34, Florida 17
Georgia at Ole Miss – The Bulldogs couldn’t beat a bad Alabama team, but they’ve beaten other decent teams handily. Ole Miss isn’t good against a team with a pulse. Georgia has a pulse.
Georgia 38, Ole Miss 20
South Carolina at Vanderbilt – We think South Carolina is legit because they finally broke an overhyped Texas A&M. Vandy did nothing against Auburn, but Auburn did less. Can they both lose?
Vanderbilt 21, South Carolina 17
Mississippi State at Tennessee – It took UMass for Mississippi State to finally get another win. Tennessee seems very post-Fulmer Tennessee right now. They’re better than the Maroons, though.
Tennessee 42, Mississippi State
Alabama at LSU – The once “SUPER BOWL TO END ALL WORLD HUNGER” has turned into the “12 team playoff elimination game.” Wow, such a fall from grace. LSU isn’t that good, but neither is Alabama and surely Death Valley will play some part.
LSU 24, Alabama 21
Oklahoma at Missouri – I kinda thought that adding Oklahoma to the conference would add some excitement. I honestly yawned when I read this matchup.
Missouri 31, Oklahoma 21
Other Games of Note
Michigan at Indiana – Once again, the national slate is hurting. Indiana is 9-0 and getting uber-praise because they’ve never been 9-0. However, literally every “big win” on their schedule has 4+ losses. Remember, people think Indiana is better than multiple SEC teams because they have 9 wins over 4+ loss teams. Even Michigan has 4 losses. Surely they can end this stupidity?
Michigan 27, Indiana 21
Colorado at Texas Tech – The Buffaloes have 2 losses and a bunch of mediocre wins. Texas Tech knocked off undefeated Iowa State last week. They’ll beat Deion this week.
Texas Tech 23, Colorado 17
Now that you know who will win, head on over to the 2024 War Blogle Pick ’em and get your picks in. There will be weekly prizes and an overall winner at the end of the season. It’s easy. Do it.
