What will (and won't) happen today

1. Florida will top Tennessee by double digits. Urban Meyer has never lost to the Vols since coming to the Gators. He will win again today. And tomorrow, Tennessee Nation will resume its bitching about Coach Phillip.

2. Georgia will win on the road against Arizona State. The World seems to think the Sun Devils have a leee-git shot to upset the third ranked Bulldogs. Unlike us, The World must not have stayed up late last Saturday night to watch Dennis Erickson lead ASU to defeat against oh-so-not-powerful UNLV. (UNLV?!?) Georgia ain't great. But ASU ain't even good.

3. Wake Forest will squeak by Florida State tonight. In a fascinating game (ESPN2, 7 PM), we agree with Messiah Herbstreit on this one: Until FSU proves us wrong, we simply won't pick them in a big game.

4. Notre Dame battles Michigan State. Two predictions: 1. This game will be boring. 2. Win or lose, Party Boy Jimmy "Pass me a red cup" Clausen will be hoisting a few dozen cold ones tonight.

5. Kansas will destroy Sam Houston State. Furthermore, Sam Houston QB Rhett Bomar, the former Party Boy at OU, won't even remember the game tomorrow morning.

6. UMass will pistol-whip host Texas Tech. (***Just seeing if you were paying attention...)

7. LSU will get by Auburn. A HUGE SEC game on a fall Saturday night. That, ladies and gents, is The Essence of College Football -- tons of hot chicks...crazy fans who, perhaps, have had some bottled fluid intoxicants...speed all over the field. It will be a low scoring affair. In fact, there is a distinct possibility Auburn may never cross mid-field. Ultimately, Lester coaches for LSU. And Auburn is coached by...wait for it...the immortal Tommy Tubberville (Tommy Tubberville!). That is what's known as the Ultimate Mismatch.
