Of course we are all looking forward to our teams starting 1-0 (hopefully) but which of the 4 games with an actual shot to mean something are you jonesing to see

Thursday 3rd: USCe/NC

Saturday 5th: Auburn/Louisville, A&M/ASU (Houston), Bama/Wisc (Jerry World)


I'm excited for all 4, but think the real money games are Saturday nights neutral sites. For what it's worth, predicting a clean sweep for the conference

A&M/ASU could really shut down the Pac 12 South narrative quickly.

Aggies,Sun Devils best match up my prediction for the big games in first week

North Carolina 31 South Carolina 13 -Chizik can coach a defense

Auburn 45 Louisville 14 intially had it closer but Lawson is killing it and their oline is bad Im thinking atleast 5 sacks by him alone nevermind Cowart on the otherside that might match it

Texas AM 48 Arizona St 45 2 OTs gonna be good

Alabama 16 Wisconsin 12 borefest and ugly late td wins it for Bama

USCe vs UNC - a revival of an old rivalry & a chance to see 2 teams with high hopes find out a little about themselves...

Yeah, maybe. And our offense has question marks... but they also had a worse defense than we did last year, but a notable margin. Hell, ECU hung 50 on them.

Additionally, they are having OL depth issues.

I'd be more pumped about the A&M - Bama games but I really don't care much for neutral site games. Particularly ones that are out of the way for both the teams (Bama / Wisconsin) Just a personal preference, but I'm a big fan of home and homes.

Yep. LSU, with absolutely horrific QB play, put up 28 on them last year. No doubt Bama will put up at least that much even if they have horrible QB play too.

I really like Michigan/Utah and Va tech/OSU outside of the conference. Inside I'll probably watch at least 10 games with SEC teams

Two of them honestly.

I expect the USCe/UNC game to be close but I don't care. Whisky and Bama, Bama wins and I am not surprised.

Now... Auburn v. Petrino. I've picked Auburn as my stalking horse for the West. They win or they are right up on there. If they lose to Louisville the whole narrative for the season comes crashing down. First game of the season, super high stakes.

Aggies v. Sun Buggerers this is your classic match up of two teams that could both make some real noise this season. If the Aggies lose this then kiss national respect good bye. If the Sun Humpers lose then the PAC-12 South starts looking like the Sunbelt.

Two games... super high stakes. It just does not get any better then that.

I'm pulling for both SEC teams but I reserve the right to troll either if they lose. I'm just saying.

Of course Auburn vs Louisville but the game to me is the TAM / Arizona state game.


That will be fun to see how it goes down..

FIFY

If we only score 13 on their defense, we might win 3 games this year.
