Be honest. If you can't make it to Atlanta with Miss St and Arky as cross-divisional opponents, it's probably not happening for a while. Amirite?
It doesn't matter too much as long as we get to play Mizzou every year.

Maybe. The line is -3 @ AU , where UGA holds a decided advantage in the series. AU strong suit is running , not throwing. Where UGA defense is much better against the run than the pass. Where as AU defense struggles against the pass and UGA can throw it a little.

I truly think UGA gets this game, and USC is essentially done in the East.

I Hate JFF a ton , and can't believe I will have to root for him, it's almost not worth winning the East..., almost.

Hotty Toddy everybody !

Yes. Your convincing win against us assures dominance in the future, to be sure.

The fact that the spread is Auburn -3 with the standard home field advantage accepted as being 3 points is pretty telling.

Let's all put down the "my team is the best team" flags right now and look at the last few games of the East for what they are.

USC will play a crippled UF team (below .500), at home, coming off a bye week and with all their starters. UF has lost 10 players this season, 7 were starters and most were on their OL. USC will win this game.

UGA will lose to Aub. UGA is like UF, they have many injuries to key positions, but their defense wasn't nearly as good as UF's even. Aub can move the ball, their defense is better than UGA's. The game is @ Aub. Aub is going to win this game.

Mizz has to play @ Ole Miss and at home vs aTm. Game is at night, at Ole Miss, Mizz does get a bye week though, but Ole Miss' opponent the week before was just Troy. Mizz is statistically a better team, so they may or may not win this game.
aTm game is at CoMo. aTm has shite for defense, but their offense is MUCH better than Mizzou's (100 more yards and 10 more points a game.) Mizzous defensive stats are good, but they've been inflated by playing teams with crippled offenses and a weak OCC schedule. Mizz may get past OM, but they have no chance of beating aTm.

Like I said, all homerism aside, and just looking at this from a betting perspective, it is what it is.

What about the 38-3 win the year before that, I think that is Exhibit A.

Zomg. We lost last year? That changes everything. You're not a really bright kid are you?

Just going off basic math and assuming all teams are evenly matched, the chances of Mizzou losing both games is 25%, and losing one of two is 50%.

Acting like predicting a Mizzou loss in one of the two remaining games or losing both isn't some crazy troll. On math alone, winning both is a 25% shot.

I don't understand the issues between the two teams. Mizzou wants to win the east, and USC fans have overwhelmingly stated they'd rather go to the Sugar Bowl. It seems like both of our goals are the same.

This board cracks me up. You bragging about beating a crippled Mizzou team last year? We keep getting told our wins against less crippled teams don't count for much.

Bottom line....let the season play out. I like Mizzou chances!

This is where I think you go off the rails. UGA's defense is quite a bit better than AU's. And it's specifically better against the run. AU doesn't have the passing attack that seems to give UGA more problems. I think Auburn has an edge in this game, but it's not nearly as convincing an edge as you seem to think it is.

Past behavior is the best indicator of future behavior. Y'all have the same coach, virtually the same facilities, recruit the same markets (with the same "success,") and now we've beaten y'all twice in a row under those conditions.

Why would I think anything would change?

So, you're predicting a loss to Tennessee next year, I take it?

Wait can someone please explain to this poor dumbass (me) how UGA beating Auburn is a good thing for Mizzou?

Opens up the tie scenarios. I personally did it because it's a bye week and thought there would be more outcry from the Dawgs being pissed that a bunch of milquetoasts are repping UGA.

Then why are you so worried about Mizzou?

If UGA beats Auburn it makes SC fans sad. And as they are dicks, we are then happy. I think that's about it.

From a probability stand point, and not weighing in other variables, that would be correct, a 25% chance to win both, a 25% to lose both and a 50% chance to lose 1. However, CFB isn't a level playing field, so that math is nice on paper, but it doesn't reflect the reality of the situation and the other variables that impact all games.

If UGA beats Auburn and SCAR wins out with Mizzou dropping only one more game then the East will be in a three way tie between UGA, Mizzou and SCAR.

If that happens then Mizzou wins the tie breaker based on interdivisional records.

SCAR would go to the Sugar. Mizzou to the SECCG and Georgia likely somewhere lesser than normal.
