SEC Week in Review

Florida 56 Troy 6:
For the second week the National Champions scheduled a scrimmage against a no body. Must be nice to start the season with two teams that I could play QB against and score at least two touchdowns. This is the Florida way, they have always done this. Makes it a lot easier to go undefeated when you only play decent competition once conference play starts

UCLA 19 Tennessee 15:
I caught parts of this game off and on. Tennessee started strong but overall did not have a very good performance putting up only 200 yards of offense. Compton looked pretty bad for most of the game throwing three interceptions. The Tennessee defense looked pretty good holding UCLA to 186 yards total offense and not giving up a lot of points considering the field position that they were starting with many times. Next for the Vols is the Gators lets see how that game goes, since Kiffin was running his mouth all preseason. I would say Florida wins by at least 24.

Alabama 40 Florida International 14
This game started a lot closer than many people were expecting with Bama leading only 20-14 at half. Alabama held them to 1 yard rushing for the game and put up 275 yards on the ground against them. Bama played typical SEC football just punishing FI on the ground and wearing down there offense and defense with physical play that not many teams can handle for 4 quarters. Next up for the Tide is North Texas

LSU 23 Vandy 9
Vandy was in this game until the 4th Quarter. The defense of Vandy did a nice job of shutting down the LSU offense and frustrating the LSU QB. Vandy could never really get there passing game going but did rush for 126 yards on the ground. LSU played a pretty even game putting up nice numbers in the air and on the ground. Next up for LSU is Louisiana Lafayette and for Vandy is Miss. St.

Auburn 49 Miss. State 24
Auburn man handled Miss. State in this game putting up 589 yards of total offense with 390 of these coming on the ground. Not to much you can say when you give up 390 yards on the ground except that you got punched in the mouth by the other team again and again. I really don't think that Auburn is that good. I think its more that Miss. State is just that bad. The Auburn defense did a good job of limiting the Bulldogs offense and forcing two turnovers.
Next up for Auburn is West Virginia and for Miss. State is Vandy
