TT, OU, and PennSt. are awfully good as well and Saban has done a great job with Bama. Watching Texas lose after dropping a sure interception to seal the deal on what <span style="font-weight: bold;">would have been</span> the best 4 game win streak I may have ever witnessed in college football just confirms it for me. No respect to Tech at all...none. They're great. I'm not sure any recent national champ could have gone 4-0 in the brutal stretch. Once the regular season ends I think we'll still see the consensus swing back to UT as the #1 team in the Big XII with OU a close second. Just have to wait for it to all play out.

Still can't quite figure out how Florida lost to the Rebs but the Gators are just awesome and they won't be sliding back. I'll be happy for JoePa if he makes the CG this year but sad that we won't be seeing the best 2 teams in the land with Florida or UT left out.

Especially about Florida. The Gator team that's been playing the last 3 weeks is not even close to the same team that lost to Mississippi. </p>

teams. LSU has had to play the top 4 teams in the SEC - Florida, Georgia, Alabama and throw in South Carolina. I think Texas was exposed a little again on defense. You let UT play against a good defense things will be different.

I'm going to disagree and say the best teams are Florida, USC, and Bama. Until Texas or OU learns to be dominant on both sides of the ball I don't think they are national championship caliber. I think Florida and USC are the two most talented teams in the nation and would make for one hell of a championship game.</p>

but Penn State and Florida I think are the two most balanced teams in the country right now. Grant it Penn State has looked solid in most every game and has won defensively and with major offensive outputs as well. The same can be said for Florida. Alabama has not been winning impressively as of late but that defense can be nasty. I do think you can win a NC playing one-sided football, but that better be on the defensive side and not the offense.

Couldn't agree more, and honestly that game they had against us was the only close game they have had. All of their wins to this point have been by 23 points or more. The only close game they've had all year was the loss to us.

I still don't see how that happened, other than the fact that their offense at that point was still only using Tebow and Harvin as the primary weapons, which somewhat limited their effectiveness. Demps and Rainey were not being used much at all. We had a ton of success that day with the Wildcat, and we happened to get a few key turnovers early in the 2nd half. Just goes to show how difficult it is to go undefeated.

If we played them today, they'd probably beat us by 2-3 TDs. They had an off day, and they really hadn't hit their stride yet, despite 3 easy wins to that point. I still think that they might be the best team in the country. Texas is the only other team in the country that I think could beat them at least 5 out of 10 times.

So if you say UT can beat UF 50% of the time, I think any of those teams could. I see UF being better than every team on that list though. But they may not get the opportunity due to the home loss to Ole Miss.

would murder Pennis State. Murder. Either one of them. It would be criminal in nature. Prurient interests would be heightened. The game would need a parental warning.

In my opinion, Florida is the #1 team in the nation. If Bama somehow eeks out a win in red stick (highly unlikely), and then makes it to ATL for the SECCG, Florida will destroy them.

I think Bama will beat LSU by 2 TDs. I know none of you watched LSU play against Tulane last night, but it wasn't pretty. Lee still lacks a lot of confidence and Saban will eat him alive

"Lee still lacks a lot of confidence and Saban will eat him alive "

They have struggled to beat Mississippi, Kentucky, and Too-lame. If Tennessee could have done anything at all, it would have been so much closer...Did Too-lame double you guys in yardage like they did Bama?

Sarah Jessica will piss on himself at some point...LSU needs to keep slamming them with Scott and stop Coffey...LSU wins this game

and none of that means anything next Saturday night...its going to be a war. Both teams have to be able to run the ball and not turn it over...LSU is still good, and Bama has benefitted from a weak schedule...Should be a great game

I am just pointing out some obvious weaknesses LSU has this year. Trust me...I am on your side for the Tigers, but the QB situation is awful. Jordan Jefferson did get in for a series last night and I am curious what he brings to the table. Odds are he isn't that good or he would have already seen the field this season

teams have ebb and flow all year long. Whats matters is this coming Saturday. And its going to be determined by who runs the ball better and who turns it over less...Sarah Jessica is just as likely to turn it over when heat is on him as Lee is.

"I am on your side for the Tigers, but the QB situation is awful"

This is where I start getting upset with Tiger fans. Ya'll dont know what awful is. Lee would be a better QB than anything we have had since Fant. He is inexperienced, just like Jefferson. Its going to take time. Thats the reason Russell didnt play as a Freshman, it takes time to develop an SEC QB.

I also disagree about the dual-DC comment you made the other day. I dont think its the dual-DC's that make LSU's defense struggle, its the fact that they arent nearly as good at LB and their secondary is inexperienced. Those things cause coaches to look bad.

Bama aint that damn good, and while they very well could win Saturday, Fla is going to skull-17 them

Lee may have potential, but he's cost you badly on a lot of terrible plays. His pick-6 on the first play of the UGA game completely set the tone for that game. I'd take Hatch over Lee any day. Better runner, more mature, decent passer and won't make the huge mistakes Lee makes way too often.

Just playing Hatch 75% and Lee 25% instead of the other way around.
