I would rather lose to good teams than choke against the Arkansases of the world. Anyway, two of Florida's good players look to have been hurt while running the clock down.


Skunky....you will be choking alot in the future with this "Arkansases" team. The Petrino era has officially started by beating the War Beagles....:D

Go Hawgs......

In case anyone hasn't seen the polls yet, the AP has Texas in the #1 spot, and Alabama at #2 which I figured we would stay. The ESPN poll isn't out yet, will be interesting to see what they have to say.
 
The 20 bonus pts that I had showing for the bonus questions is now showing 0. Is there a bonus thing every week I don't know about? No one knows who will finish atop the SEC East and West, ACC, and as National Champs etc. until the end of the season and after the bowl games. :dunno:

I know Tennessee is out of the thick of things. But LSU still could be SEC West Champ and Missouri could still be National Champ if they win out the rest of their games.
Before the first game everyone had 40 points for all categories. As one's chosen teams lose, s/he temporarily falls from the top probability in the appropriate category. As the season progresses and other teams lose, one can rise back up in the bonus points. It's not over until it's over.

In my (edit, not your) case Florida was at 0 last week. But now since there's a three-way tie for the SEC East, all 3 teams give a 10-point bonus.

For the national championship as long as there are undefeated teams that are BCS-qualified, they'll provide 10 points. So it's a floating forecast as we go through the season.

BTW 5 people won 9 or 8 games in week 7.

Thanks for explaining. I knew at least 4 had gotten 8 or 9 games correct. I obviously missed the 5th, or forgot. They are the lucky 5. :D

I almost took a leaping dive off of my balcony onto the ground when I did so bad on the picks. It was humiliating. :dunno:
