Mark's Week Two Thoughts

It's 3:30 and I have been in heaven since 11 a.m. watching football non-stop. I've decided a few of my pre-season predictions are probably wrong. Here are a few of my thoughts:

South Carolina is better than I thought. Spurrier may kill freshman Marcus Lattimore if he keeps giving him 37 carries, but he needed them all today to take down Georgia.

Georgia's offense is not very good without A.J. Green. I like Murray, but it's pretty tough when you have to play with a hand behind your back. His best receiver is now a tight end, Orson Charles. The South Carolina D probably had a lot to do with it, but 6 points ain't gonna cut it.

Florida looks vulnerable. Brad, Shawn and I have been talking all day about how bad the Gators have looked through two weeks, and I am not feeling very confident about my SEC East pick.

Oklahoma was looking past Utah State to Florida State. The Sooners offense has clicked on all cylinders in the first half against the Seminoles, as Landry Jones is torching the secondary to the tune of 13-16 for 173 yards and 2 TDs in the first half.

Miami is faster than Ohio State. I've heard Herbie and everyone in the media who wants people to think the Big-10 is worth a crap say that the Buckeyes have closed the speed gap that has plagued them in big games against quality teams from the south, but guess what...they're wrong. I can't really put my finger on what Ohio State's issue is, because speed isn't all of it, but I don't see OSU beating a quality SEC team in the near future.

Boise State's quality win just disappeared. Virginia Tech losing to JAMES MADISON (isn't he Billy's brother?) takes the one win the Broncos could hang their hat on and flings it in the fire.

Football in HD is probably the awesomest (yeah, I said it) thing since sliced bread, and I will continue to partake in its splendor through Monday Night Football!

Your thoughts???

  1. and of course, as I bad mouth Ohio State they pick Harris twice and stretch their lead to 20-10... Oh well, I didn't say they'd lose today, but they will eventually.
