This Saturdays game between the visiting Tigers of LSU and the Kentucky Wildcats should be as good as promised. Last week Fla. exposed a weakness in LSU's defense so look for the Wildcats to watch much game film and see what they can do to try and use that to their advantage. Kentucky has a few chinks in their armor also on the defensive side. S. Carolina pretty much did whatever they wanted to and it worked for them. Kentucky's offense is very eficient though. QB A. Woodson post a rating of 154.31 and leads the SEC in passing yds with 1,536 and is also the highest scoring team in the SEC avg. 42.7 points a game. That is the strength of Kentucky's offense they can throw the ball and do it well. LSU's defense is top in the nation even though it took a big hit from Fla. mainly QB Tim Tebow. Led by defensive end Glen Dorsey who is a nightmare for any offensive lineman to have to handle, he's very fast and strong. Kentucky will have to find a way to keep him in check. In the secondary LSU is led by S. Craig Steltz. He leads the SEC in interceptions with 4. He's also a bruising hitter who can pop the ball loose from a reciever who doesn't see the hit coming. Reversing angles now, on the defensive side for Kentucky it can be a long day if the D-line can't stop LSU's rushing attack. They have a multitude of talented backs led by Jacob Hester. He's not only strong and fast but has the heart of a champion. Last week against Fla. Hester became the first back to post a 100 yd game against the Gator defense.  Then there's the little pocket rocket Trindon Holliday. This kids speed is unreal, and if he gets any open space look out there is no catching up to him. Also Kentucky will have to find a way to stop QB Ryan Periloux who will come in the game a number of times and run the ball effectivly. LSU has no one player on offense who really stands out like Kentucky does, what they do have is a team that gets it done together. That's what the game is all about... teamwork. I look for Kentucky to give LSU some fits and score a couple touchdowns but ultimately the Tigers are just to big and powerful and more hungry than the lil widcats. Should be another great weekend in college football and I can't wait.

Geaux Tigers!!!

On sunday USC was replaced by LSU as the #1 team on the AP poll  but does it even matter... not at all. The AP poll isn't even used to determine who plays who for the National Championship game. All it does is provide College football fans with a reason to smack talk. What will matter is, this weekends game between LSU and Florida.  If the Gators win how far do they move to get back in the hunt to possibly defend their NC title? If USC struggles this weekend and CAL. destroys it's opponent do they move ahead to the #1 or #2 spot in the polls? Also if all three top teams LSU, USC and CAL are upset where does S. Fla. fit in all this? those are the questions that I am waiting to see answerd and this weekends games couldn't come soon enough. Every year the College football season is more and more exciting. It's great for the game to see teams such as USF come out of nowhere and shock everyone. Kentucky is another team who has come out of nowhere it seems. Usualy only known for it's Basketball program Kentucky is off to a great start and is climbing in the polls and on the hunt for a birth in the SEC title game. They still have some tough games ahead of them with LSU and Fla still yet to play. I will actualy give them the nod against Fla. but think it will be tough for them to beat LSU and it's vaunted Defense. Nevertheless the whole State of Kentucky is behind them and we all know how passionate sports fans they are when it comes to thier Wildcats. Thing is I am assuming alot will and can happen here, we'll just have to wait and see. Everyone has a shot ,even the 1 loss teams. So fans of your favorite team keep rooting for them.It promises to be a wild ride the next couple of weeks as we will see teams seperate themselves from the rest of the pack. Let's forget about strength of schedule, which conference is stonger or any meaningless polls that have thier opinions on things. What matters most is winning. Win and win convincingly, that is the name of the game. For the same reason until your favorite team beats another top 5 team let's stop all the smack talk about who is better. If you just so happen to not have a top 5 team on the rest of your schedule, well then beat who you have and beat them like they stole from you. That doesn't mean running up the score on some sorry #### team. It means to just dominate in all facets of the game. So to fans of those teams that find themselves sniffing at the door of a National Championship game goodluck the rest of the way. Also to those fans that think your out of it with one loss, don't give up. There is still some games to be played that will possibly change the way things seem at this moment. That's the beauty of college football, almost everyone has a chance to be called the best that year.
