Some great football on tap today: Ohio State vs. Michigan. Duke vs. North Carolina. Georgia vs. Georgia Tech. Notre Dame vs. Stanford. Clemson vs. South Carolina. Texas A&M vs. Missouri. And of course, Alabama vs. Auburn.
Then there are my truly awful 4-7 Florida Gators — the first UF team to fail to make it to a bowl since 1990, a squad just coming off its first loss to an FCS opponent last week — vs. our archrival, unbeaten #2 Florida State. The Gators are a 27-point underdog. Which seems kind of generous.
Will the Gators take all the disappointment, disrespect and negativity as inspiration and pull off the most stunning upset of the year? Almost certainly not, but that possibility will keep me watching.
I think Ohio State will handle Michigan and Duke will prevail against NC. Georgia will triumph over Georgia Tech, and Mizzou will beat Texas A&M. The ‘Cocks will crow after downing Clemson, and Alabama will win in a squeaker over Auburn.
What are y’all watching today? Any predictions? Oh, and feel free to slag on my Gators all you want, of course; just remember that what goes around comes around.
