Saturday Predictions

The time is here again. It's almost Saturday, which I call football day, Auburn football day to be exact. Even with the 4-4 record, I still get excited every week. I have predicted every week, and truly thought the team would win. I have been bad luck. Im not going to go away from that this week though. Here are my predictions for the week:

Auburn @ Ole Miss
Big game for the Tigers! The outcome of this game will probably decide if Auburn will or will not make a bowl game. Personally, I am trying to reserve tickets to the Papa-Johns.com bowl. That seems like the destination. A loss tomorrow could cost them a chance at a bowl opportunity. I think the team is rested up and ready to go. Although losing 34-17 @ West Virginia, they did show signs of improvement on the offensive side of the ball. I think this is going to be a very close game. The defense should be some better than last week. My Prediction: Auburn-28 Ole Miss-24

Alabama vs. Arkansas St.
Prediction? I don't know if this is worthy of a prediction. This game is not going to be close at all, and it shouldn't be. The home team is tons better than the opposition. I don't think Alabama will play for style points, I think they will simply take care of business. My prediction: Alabama-38 Arkansas St.-6

Georgia vs. Florida (Jacksonville)
The east will be decided on Saturday. Will it be Georgia? Will it be Florida? Talks of a championship are flying everywhere on both sides of this game. A win in this game will put the team in great position to talk about a championship. A loss this late, will probably knock the team out of contention. Both teams are clicking on all cylinders. I think Florida's team as a whole is playing better at this point. Georgia gave up 31 points to a not as good Alabama offense in the first half. Florida should be ready to go. My prediction could be a shocker to some, but I personally do not think this game will be that close. My prediction: Florida-38 Georgia-17

Texas @ Texas Tech
What a match up. Gameday will be in Lubbock for the first time in it's history. This is going to be a great game. I will be sitting in front of the T.V. watching this one. A matchup of two high powered offenses and ok defenses. Defense will decide this game. Both teams will be able to score, so who will have the most chances to do so? The team that forces the most turnovers wins this game. For some odd reason, I am feeling the Raiders this week. If they can come away with a W, the voters will be in a weird position. Will they vote Texas Tech to jump everyone and take over the top spot? Or will Alabama simply move up and take over the spot? Either way, it will be exciting! I think a walk on kicker with very little experience will decide this game. My prediction: Texas Tech-41 Texas-38

I am very excited about this week! There are plenty of reasons for a football fan to be excited. If Auburn will come away with a win I will feel a lot better. That's all I have for today and Happy Halloween!!!!!!!!!!!!......................WAR EAGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
