Perhaps if Ole Miss would have gone with Admiral Ackbar as their mascot, they would have had more success with their so called “trap game.”
DirecTV…
- 
- What’s ironic (perhaps coincidental?) is that on Thursday, my wife informed me that our DirecTV bill jumped from $51 a month to $94 a month. No warning. We discussed switching to Charter, but we did say we enjoyed the HD programming and the numerous channels you get with the basic DirecTV package.
- Then I turned on channel 209 to watch my Auburn Tigers play. What? Where’s the game? Oh…it’s blacked out on DirecTV and DirecTV only.
- I scrambled to find another channel, but there was no other channel. Nothing carrying Auburn football.
- My facebook blew up: “How could we let an 83 yard touchdown happen on the 2nd play?”

Will this be an old school defensive battle? The author thinks so.
Florida 24, Alabama 20
Three Keys for Florida Victory
1) Florida’s Defense
It is safe to say, Alabama hasn’t faced a tougher test than the one waiting this Saturday. Florida’s league leading defense is built in pressure, aggressiveness, and taking the ball away from the opponent. It is as hard to move the ball consistently against Florida as it is to score points – only nine times this season has the other team crossed the goalline against the Gators. Moreover, Florida is good as stuffing the run – only giving up 2.6 yards per attempt – which puts the onus on Alabama’s passing game even more. The Gators defensive backfield has produced 20 INTs this year and in a game against big, physical wide receivers of LSU (comparable to Alabama’s squad), Florida held them to 11 catches for 96 yards. That’s darn impressive. The loss of Carlos Dunlap on the defensive line due to suspension is noteworthy and he will be sorely missed. However, Florida possesses strength in scheme and quality depth which helps to cover for that loss and gives them a distinct advantage in this game.

I decided to finally write for my own front page. Since I am jonesing for some football, I give you the 1
st annual Godfather Previews the SEC. Who, you might be asking, is the Godfather and why should we care about his SEC preview. To answer those questions I am the Godfather (find out why in our
forums) and I don’t really care whether you like my SEC preview or not. I am not however a talking head or media person, I have no insider knowledge, I am a regular guy just like you, who runs this board for fun and really enjoys College Football. So, with introductions out of the way, I shall begin.
I’ll start with the Eastern Division, where as much as it pains me to say, will contain the SEC Champion and possibly the National Champion, once again.
