Good call. What are the odds there are even 2 TDs scored in the whole game?

Well sure, for a fellow Ohio St fan. Betcha he would've held strong for us lesser school plebes.

I tried to make my picks a little more interesting if only because it seemed like most folks were making the same picks as everyone else.

Same. Also because it'd be hilarious to hear the crying if the SECSECSEC got left out of the title game.

The DirecTV/Pac-12 Network situation isn't sounding very good right now:

- An open letter to our fans regarding DirecTV
Pac12 said:
As you may have read, DirecTV believes that all Pac-12 fans will be satisfied by the games they can watch through other networks. We know this is not true, based on the thousands of calls and emails we've received from you, particularly from fans of teams that other broadcasters don't typically feature. We also know that the other networks offered by DirecTV won't broadcast 20 of the Pac-12's conference games, starting with the Cal/USC matchup on September 22.

If you're one of the fans who won't be satisfied without Pac-12 football, or our more than 135 men's basketball games and hundreds of other live events, we recommend finding Pac-12 Networks with another television provider.

The good news is that most Pac-12 fans have options. These fans can switch their television service to one of the more than 30 distributors that offer Pac-12 Networks, including Comcast, Time Warner Cable and Cox. These providers offer Pac-12 Networks' full season lineup, including some of the most thrilling games of the season and TV Everywhere viewing online, on the iPad and on smartphones later in the season.

Pretty sure that's a typo. Again, Bama is an SEC team.
Click to expand...

It's actually not a typo.
God knows that Bama doesn't need any more fans on GAF, and I'm definitely no Bama homer but saying that they were unable to score last year (outside of when they played LSU) is a bit unfair.

And Michigan played Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan, and San Diego State last year.. so everybody has their share of cupcakes.

SDSU is also an up and coming program who would probably win the B1G division with Penn State. If we beat them it should count as 2 wins.

Oh, ok. Probably it includes points scored by the defense. Which, with the horrible offenses in the SEC, there are a lot of pick sixes and such. So I guess that makes sense.

meh, best I can tell, 3 INT TD's and 1 punt return for a TD, is all the non-offensive scoring that happened last year.

Alabama's not in that Offensive Juggernaut tier, but they're in the next tier.

Oh dear, poor Russ :(

UGA mascot Russ to assume title of Uga IX

I've already given my thoughts on it, and think he's too old. But I know a lot of fans liked him and wanted him to be the mascot, so I'm cool with it. I think they were at the point where the puppies that were there now weren't exactly what they wanted, so they'll give it a year or two and then when one is ready they'll name a new one.

I love when his foot gets caught on the cover on the side of the pool and it goes flying at the end of the clip. This gif could also be applied to A&M.
