First, I hate the first week of the season ... outside of a few teams ... nobody ever plays anyone ... unless you count Jacksonville State.

JSU ruined every ballot ... like anyone could have soberly predicted that upset.  Six of the ten panelists completed the week at 12-1 (thank you Tyrone Nix). no comments

First off, Good Lord ... collectively as a league ... the SEC looked awful in week one.

Yes, most of the teams scored a ton of points, but defensively there are enough needed improvements it would give Bob Villa a heart attack.  Where do we even begin?  With Florida's mediocre start?  Ole Miss' melt down against an FCS team?

Let's get it over with.  Ole Miss was cruising 31-10.  By all rights and means, this game was their's to lose.  So they did.  The Jacksonville Jaguars State football team did not quit playing.   no comments

Here it is ... the remainder of week one ... as normal, I am pushed for time, so let's grab it and go. no comments

Nike is unveiling a new, and supposedly improved, Pro Combat Uniform for the Florida Gators.

As with the previous Pro Combat uniforms, these uni's are lighter and breathe easier than a standard uniform ... but the jury is still out on the reaction of the fans ... at least the helmet doesn't have the blown hurricane "F" on the side ... and the pants do not look like David Lee Roth chaps.  The uniforms are complete with faux Gator skin, which is very cool.   no comments

Here is a nugget for you to check out.  Kevin Holtham is a personal friend and a heck of a sports handicapper.  Unlike many of the Vegas clan, Kevin takes the time to turn over every rock ... takes a look at the intangibles that most over look ... and takes his time on his analysis ... that is rare. no comments

Like many, of course we are thankful to see the season finally arrive.  Too bad we have to muddle through week one's cup cake and creme schedule.  Honestly, other than a couple of games, is anyone really looking forward to this weekend?  At any rate, football on television IS football on television .

Right out of the gate is Southern Miss at South Carolina.

The Gamecocks are currently favored by 14 points and the over/under is 45 points.  Look for this game to be closer than expected, especially early on.   no comments
