Week 10 Thread

[Dawg83]

Massive week of games nationally. I’ll start with the biggest one of them all!

 

Vandy at State.- lol. This game is going to be gross. It sounds like Swann and Fluff might actually play? Did not expect that after how they left the Texas game. This feels like a hugely important game for Lebby. State CAN win it. But I don’t believe in this team without Kamario. Prove me wrong, Dogs. But I have Vandy coming into town and winning something like 20-17.

 

Georgia at Ole Miss - Massive game for OM. Win this one and it would take a big upset for them to not make the Playoff a second year in a row. Might still have a chance with a loss but it would be tough. I’m truly torn on this one, as I believe UGA is the better team. But when in doubt, recent history says pick Ole Miss at home. I think the Rebs get this one 31-27.

 

Bama at LSU - I have no clue why Bama is rated as high as they are in the CFP rankings. But I don’t think it will last long. LSU has quietly stepped it up of late, and in Baton Rouge, I really like their chances here. I actually have LSU winning this one by double digits.

 

Kentucky at Tennessee - Excited about this one, think it’s a great opportunity for UK…. But if there’s anything I’ve learned watching Kentucky over the years, it’s that Tennessee is their boogeyman. I think the Vols take this one at home.

 

Texas at Mizzou - Mizzou is weird (lol of course they are). Texas is good but not great. I’m taking Mizzou in a home upset here.

 

Miami at Notre Dame - No Toney for the Canes, who have been living dangerously lately. I think ND finally gets its big win here.

 

Utah at BYU - Top 10 Holy War. Will be a fun game in the early window. I am taking BYU on the road in this one, just a hunch.

i agree on all this^

IF Swann and Fluff are healthy enough to actually contribute then I like State. 

Hard to go against UM but I like GA

Even without Toney I like Miami

I'll also take Mizzou, TN and BYU

I think State finds a way to scratch out a win. 24-10.

Georgia @ Ole Miss. Tempted to take Jawja but Ole Miss has done a good job of rising to the occasion. So Georgia will lead most of the way before Ole Miss finds a way to win late. 35-31.

 

LSU continues to break the hex that Alabama has had in Bryant Denny West. LSU 30, Bama 16.

 

Kentucky breaks the Tennessee spell with a win over UT-Knoxville…21-18.

Missouri over Texas 24-22.

ND beats the Thugs in the Catholics vs Convicts game. 38-24.

Utah wins the Mormon battle 28-17. 
Auburn over Arkansas in a really ugly game…20-17.

SCAR continues their roll over a slumping A&M team. 42-17. 
Minnesota knocks the University of California at Los Angeles from the unbeaten ranks 27-24.

With Swann and Bothwell good to go, I’ll take State.  
 

OM’s defense plays much better at home.  I’ll take OM.  
 

LSU, UK, Missouri, Auburn, FL  and SC.  
 

ND also takes down Miami.  Neither are a legit contender.

This stretch of games coming up for Lebby remind of 2013 CDM. If you all remember he was on shaky ground at 4-6 going into the Arkansas and Ole Miss games. The much maligned Tyler Russell helped lead us to an overtime win on road against the Razorbacks and then we had the OT win over OM. Which led to the blow out of Rice in the Liberty Bowl. Which led into the 2014 season.

These four games are really crucial for Lebby. He really needs to be 3-1 with a competitive showing in the Egg Bowl to create momentum going into 2027 (plus a bowl game with extra practices). Anything less will be a disappointment though 6-6 given the injuries would not be terrible. 
 

Any thoughts from you guys on this perspective?

Lebby's future hinges on the next 3 games regardless of Kamario Taylor's health.
