No chance to gain on Oak this week. It’s a pretty dull week in the Top 10.
Oak, any chance I could get you to work your voodoo on tOSU or Baylor?

It would appear, early on, that 2/3 of us think the weekend will be rather drab in terms of Top Ten teams getting knocked off. Even so, there do seem to be some fun games to watch.
Thursday night’s for instance. One reason to close the poll early.

I can see making a case for Stanford or Auburn to be upset in the thier respective games, but I think those may even be long shots. I have to go with this being a good week for the Top 10.

Hmmm…I like beer, but I’m only picking Auburn to lose this week. Why? Roll Tide.

Since there is no way in hell my Tigers are going to lose to the Dawgs this weekend, not only will you catch Oak , you will pass him by half a point.
War Eagle.

I’m not sold on Baylor. I say this is the week they go down.

You’re not alone in that feeling, as can be seen in Who takes The College Football Belt away from Baylor?
My own prediction (and how I voted in that thread/poll) is for next week, but I’m starting to believe they can go unbeaten this season.
We’ll see.
War Damn Eagle! Wow. We had it, lost it, and then got it back in a ridiculously improbable play.
Bring on Bama, because I think the football gods are smiling on Auburn.

Got to be! Play of the decade at least.
Aye, that was pretty freaking incredible.
But what’s more improbable and also incredible was Jameis Winston’s 19-for-21 passing day. How can this guy not win the Heisman? Go 'Noles!
Alabama wasn’t impressive at all against Mississippi State.
ETA: I thought I’d provide a link so everyone can see the incredibly lucky play that won Auburn the game . I love the one Auburn player’s reaction on the field that is in the shot as the touchdown is scored.
