I bolded the scores if that's all you wanna read.

First I wanna say that Week 5 is gonna be one hell of a week with these matchups, probably one of the best weeks this season. I'm probably going to be dead wrong on a good bit of these, but I like making predictions for the hell of it. So don't get mad at me if these sound out there, that's because they probably are. Post your probably better predictions.

South Carolina @ Missouri - 17-10, South Carolina.
This game is going to be really close I believe. I'm not sure if South Carolina is the favorite or not, but I think we can run out of here with a win just barely. Defensively, Missouri is looking very promising against our much weaker offense, but I think our defense is going to hold them more. So mainly I think this will be a defensive game, South Carolina pulling out a shocking win, considering how bad we look right now. Just a gut feeling.

#13 Alabama @ #8 Georgia - 38-24, Georgia.
I think Alabama's going to hold Georgia from getting into the 40s unlike most of Georgia's other opponents, but I also think that Alabama isn't going to be able to stop Georgia's power offense enough to win the game. From what I've seen, Georgia just looks like the better team right now. I would not be shocked though if Alabama pulls out the win..because...well, they're Bama. This could be their ticket back into the Top 10 for all I know.

#3 Ole Miss @ #25 Florida - 27-24 OT, Ole Miss.
I believe that Ole Miss is going to go into the Swamp greatly underestimating Florida this coming Saturday. I think this game is going to be very low scoring in the first half, with both offenses catching up in the second half. The environment will prove to be very difficult to act in for Ole Miss and the score will be 21-21 when OT will start. I think Ole Miss will escape in OT by getting a TD while Florida could only pull out a FG in the end.

Arkansas @ Tennessee - 31-20, Tennessee.
Ahhh the battle of two schools said to be big threats in offseason, but ended up having not as convincing records by Week 5. I'm sure most people think Arky is beyond done after embarrassing losses to Toledo and TTU and the close game vs. A&M...honestly I also don't think Arkansas is going to pull through, in this game at least. I think Tennessee is out for blood after losing to the Gators by 1 point last week and they're going to take their frustrations out on Arkansas.

#21 Mississippi State @ #14 Texas A&M - 27-17, Texas A&M.
Everyone's asking about who's going to be the big team to knock A&M down from their pedestal...and no, I don't think Mississippi is going to be the team to do it. Judging from MSU's 2 SEC West games, I just don't think they're equipped enough to take down A&M. You could also argue my opinion of A&M is a little misleading because of their opponents, but this is just a gut feeling at this point.

What in the hell makes you think the Rebels are underestimating Florida?

Florida fans haven't attended or yelled at a game in 3 years so they will be well rested.

When I say that, I mean underestimating their potential compared to their own team, not just looking at them and shrugging or anything. Sorry if I didn't express that right.

I think Ole Miss is preparing for Florida as if the Gators are one of the best teams in the country. And that should worry Florida.

Predictions all seem legit, I just don't know why you think Ole Miss will underestimate Florida.

That score is not possible in overtime, if UF kicks a field goal to go to 24-21 and Ole Miss scores a TD the game ends at 27-24. Because your prediction is invalid. 21-17 Gators is a better prediction.

Why? You guys are insane. This winning stuff is so new for you.

Why would we worry about Ole Miss? We aren't any good anyway, right? Most of us predicted 8-4. We are on track. There's literally nothing to worry about except for our ears bleeding from all the yapping you lap dogs do.

That score in OT is literally impossible unless a coach kicks a field goal after the other team scored a touchdown

The score is 21-21 before overtime starts. In my prediction for the hypothetical OT, I think Florida gets the ball first but can only pull out a FG. Ole Miss gets the ball and gets the TD. My prediction is possible unless I'm missing something.

You are missing something.

They wouldn't kick the extra point. It would be over after the TD in your scenario.
