Gator or Gamecock?


This article was published about 2 weeks ago in the Spartanburg Herald Journal. RB Franklin Green (5-11 208) of Savannah committed to Florida in July but is far from settled on a final decision. He made an unofficial visit to USC in September and is torn between the Gamecocks and Gators. "I consider myself a Florida commitment but in a way I consider it even," Green said. He talked with USC recruiter John Hunt last week. "He said he really wanted me and (teammate) Chaz (Sutton) to come down. He's showing a lot of interest." Green said he will try to get to USC for another game this season. He plans to take official visits to USC and Florida after the season.

No Game for Georgia.. But it couldn't have been a better week

Georgia couldn't ask for a better bye weekend than the one we just got. With losses from Tennessee, Kentucky, and the badass Vanderbilt upset of South Carolina, the SEC east is the craziest I've ever seen with a 5-way tie for #1. With another loss from USC and Tennessee, which is highly likely looking at both of their remaining SEC games, and a win-out from the dawgs in the SEC (which will be extremely tough with Florida, Kentucky, and Auburn) we will be in the SEC championship. We dont control our own destiny yet.. but we got a ton of help this week. What a crazy year of college football

Where did it all go wrong for this kid?



Notice the tan line on the left arm can you say "Effingham."

Midseason Report

Joe - 34-15
Austin - 32-17
Pat - 32-17
Fender - 27-22
Brendan - 26-23


These records are bad. Well either we are a bunch of idiots or it has been the most unpredictable college football season of all time. I'm leaning towards the latter. This has certainly been a gruelling season with one contestant already quitting because he couldn't take the heat. Curly knew Brendan was a quitter when he found out that Brendan wasn't going to make the trip with the rest of the freshman football team to Wayne County after Emory fell on his foot in practice. It is looking like a three horse race for first place with Joe holding a slight lead over myself and Austin tied for second. Maybe the most interesting match up is the race for last place between Fender and Gillens. This isn't the first time these two have squared off but we won't get into that. The most intriguing aspect of the race for last is that Brendan missed last week picks entirely and he is somehow only one game away from tying him. Gillens, if you can pass Fender after that setback, I think there should be some sort of a prize. Good luck the rest of the season. Also, I will no longer be putting BC picks up now that it is subregion time and I can't in good conscience pick against BC.
