Predict the Big10-SEC matchups

[Statefan]

A lot of the talking heads are stating the fact that the big10 NEEDS to win some of the SEC matchups to defeat the stereotypes (aka the SEC speed). How do you guys see the games going?<div>
</div><div>Miss St. vs Michigan</div><div>Florida vs Penn State</div><div>Alabama vs Michigan State</div><div>OSU vs Arkansas</div><div>
</div><div>I think their only win will be Penn State</div>

Maybe 17 to 21 points. They should dominate that game.

We will win by7 to10 pointsI think. We have a faster defense and should be able to negate some of what Robinson can do. And they have zero defense. We should score a lot of points.

Florida should beat Penn St because PSU is the type of team where Brantley can sit back and throw all day. I don't think PSU will get a ton of pressure on Brantley, and with the speedFlorida has at RB, they can really spread out the PSUdefense. I see Florida by a TD.

OSU Arky is the tricky one. Arkansas will put up points, but I think Pryor could have a career day against Arkansas. I really would have liked OSU to end up playing another good SEC defense so we could continue to gloat about how they suck, but that won't be the case. I can see OSU winning that game just because they have a good enough defense to stop Mallett, and Arkansas has a bad enough defense to where they may give up too many points to be able to outscore OSU.

Tenn might have issues with NC.

Edit to add: I am not sure about Florida. I think Arkansas, Alabama and MSU are playing very well right now and have more speed over all. Florida is faster then Penn but they have played like they don't give a crap all year and they are not very well coached.

beat the **** out of Florida and us, or will it be the one that played soft and scared like USCe and AU?

 

[Foronce]

FL, Al, MSU, and OSU

i don't think OSU will lose 10 in a row to SEC... basically because i think they have more motivation, the absolutely have to win that game.

Everybody's saying Tennessee started playing better at the end of the season because they were 4-0 in November. Hello. They're ALWAYS 4-0 in November. It helps when the 4 teams you play in November have a combined 13-35 record.

Although I believe the Tide pull away in the end, the Spartans have a very, very solid team and I could see Alabama coming out flat in this one.<div>
</div><div>We beat Michigan by 10+.</div><div>
</div><div>Ohio State handles Arkansas, yes, they handle them. Arkansas made Chris Relf look like Terrelle Pryor, what will they make Pryor look like?</div><div>
</div><div>Florida vs Penn State? Who knows, although I picked Florida, just cause.</div>

the other MSU - Bama game was by far the toughest to pick. I think that one's going to be really close.

On my pickem sheet here at work I took NC. Even with all he crap going on there they played hard all year.

Bama is going to rock Mich. State. Seriously. Mich. State beat Wisconsin and Penn. State and that is it. Hell, they were 7-0 before they even had to play a game outside their own state. I really think we would be 11-1 or 10-2 with their schedule. Iowa beat the **** out of them. They had to pull a trick play out of their asses to beat a ****** Notre Dame team. They aren't that good.

Florida is just not very good for some reason. It is Meyer's last game though, so you never know how they will play.

Arkansas is not as good as people (Ark. fans) think. tOSU is going to get the SEC monkey off their back this year thanks to a favorable matchup, and for once I won't be that upset about it. (I disdain tOSU)

I don't think Michigan has the defense to beat us. Hope I'm right.

MSU will beat Michigan because of our defense- we won't shut them down, but we'll stop them more than they will stop us, unless we turn the ball over a lot.

Alabama I think will beat Michigan State. It's the last game for a lot of guys like Ingram, McElroy, probably Julio Jones, etc. I thik they will want to go out with a bang.

Also think that Florida beats Penn State because they will play up for Urban Meyer's last game.

And I'll go with Arkansas over OSU because the Buckeyes have been horrible against SEC teams.
