I'm going to the A&M game. With my son a senior there, I think it's high time I made my first (and probably last) visit to Kyle Field.
It's one of the fields I want to get to.
The triple decker stadium, the field and the traditions the Corps of Cadets have there are something to behold
I understand it's loud. My wife and I aren't sitting with my son, because the students stand up the entire game. I don't know why they even installed seats on that side of the field.
Apparently the new Jumbotron screen they put on one end of the field is something to behold.
I'm looking forward to the game. Missouri is slightly favored, but this A&M team isn't predictable. Very inconsistent. Big game for them. Should give a good predictor for the rest of the season.
The Auburn game is our season, if we win, it's clear sailing to the SEC Championship game, and an NC shot.
yeah...
it's not as big as they one they put in there at UT, but it's huge none the less....
I JUST missed out on OSU tickets for the Minny game in a couple weeks. Darn :)
Did you hear them chanting "Fire Mason" during the Penn State game?
well it's clear sailing to the SEC Championship game at least.
Don't get ahead of yourself :)
Why is this a trap game for UF? Auburn beat LSU and UF is on the road. Trap games would be games like UAR at AU when AU might be looking ahead to UF.
Florida's Strength of Schedule has taken a hit with Georgia and Auburn losing, and FSU sucking this year.
That could hurt us if USC and the winner of Michigan/Ohio State both go unbeaten.
Mike,
You know that I'm the biggest New Mexico homer around, but after their last 2 games I don't think they can get back in the race for a conference title. The Lobos are terrible on offense this season. They have a new system, their no 1 QB is out for the season, and they are going to start a Freshman at QB Saturday. It ain't looking good in Lobo land. You might want to put a land mine next to this one also.
I don't think last week's game has changed UF's opinion of Auburn. If anything, it makes them even more dangerous.
It boils down to can UF stop Auburn's running game. If we do that, I think UF squeaks out a win in a close, low-scoing game.
I think we'll destroy Georgia, though.
I am encouraged that Meyer has a good road win under his belt this year. But it is his only one at UF. So there is reason for concern.
I am not ready to look at UGa yet. It depends on who UF has at QB playing what snaps. If we waste snaps at QB with a guy who can not play, we keep opponents in games.
I have no idea, but a UT guy at the office told me that their screen is one inch bigger.
It's a Texas rivalry thing, obviously. A&M should never have branded UT's longhorn 13-0, which required UT to rebrand the dumb cow BEVO.
It's gone downhill ever since.
So you're predicting the closest game to date for OSU, and the highest scoring for an OSU opponent all season (tied with Iowa)?
What impresses me the most about this year's team, is the ability to make adjustments (something that NEVER happened during the Zook-era), and the ability to overcome bad starts, we've trailed in every conference game this year. And we need DeShawn Wynn back in the worst way for Auburn.
But my fear is that our woeful placekicking is going to get us killed, we haven't made a FG all year.
No, I didn't see that one. I'll be paying more attention now since the Twins season is over.
