SEC Picks - Week 10

 Hey campers, welcome back to another week of Dalton has no idea what he is talking about, it's obvious he doesn't know a thing about college football.  Ok, so what's your point?

For the second week in a row and third time in last four weeks, I took a beating in the early games.  I don't know what it is about those games played with a before noon kickoff.   I mean, I figured Oklahoma had a two percent chance to beat Ole Miss.  Wrong!  Then there was Auburn, with the way the Hogs were scoring points under interim Coach Bobby Petrino, i thought they would put up 40 or 50 easy on snakebit Tigers.  Wrong!   Oh well, I went 4-3, which is still a winning record.....barely.   I am now 25-12 in conference games and overall I am 68-20.  Still not bad, but I expect better.  Judging from the text messages, some of you do as well.

Only six games this week, and one again they are all conference games, so let's take a look.

Vanderbilt at Texas - 11a - ABC - Well, might as well have the best game of the day play first.  Texas has been better the last week or two and they are at home.  Vandy, well Vandy has looked like they sold their soul or something.  They held the high-scoring Missouri Tigers top 10 points last week.  I'm going with Vandy till they lose.  Vandy 33, Texas 27

Georgia v. Florida (at Jacksonville) - 2.30p - ABC - Kick-off for the annual duel of the two schools at the Gator Bowl, begins at 3.30P (EDT), which means the "The World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party" has already begun.  Pace yourself folks, moderation is the key.  Georgia 42, Florida 21

Mississippi State at Arkansas - 3p - SEC - Mississippi State had Texas beat for about 59 minutes last Saturday, only to lose in overtime.  Both teams have been playing better the past couple of weeks and don't have anything to show for it.  I thought Arkansas had Auburn's number, and it wasn't even close.  Blame it on the rain I guess.  Either way, I'm not picking them again until they win.  Miss. State 31, Arkansas 30

South Carolina at Ole Miss - 6p - ESPN - Last week the Gamecocks gave Alabama all they wanted and more.  Unfortunately, Alabama turned it up a notch or two in the second half and won.  I don't think South Carolina has a gear to play with Ole Miss.  Man that 2-0 start they had must seem like a lifetime ago.  Ole Miss 47, South Carolina 24

Kentucky at Auburn - 6.30p - SEC - Since Alabama has the week off, most Tide faithful will spend this Saturday sticking pins in Auburn kewpie dolls.  Hey, keeps them out of the pool hall.  I wonder if Coach/Sen./wannabe Gov. Turbeville will be there soliciting votes.  Hint, "Just say no."  Still Auburn should win easily.  If they lose, well say good-bye Coach Freeze.  Auburn 32, Kentucky 14

Oklahoma at Tennessee - 6.30p - ABC - I'm thinking this might be an enjoyable game.  Say, didn't Tennessee Coach Huepel used to play quarterback for the Sooners?  Nah, no incentive on either side in this one.  Tennessee 38, Oklahoma 34 (Note: If there is a World Series Game 7, it would conflict with this game, so y'all will need to send me texts with updates.  But if Toronto wins Friday night, then I'll be watching football with you. Priorities you know.)

Have a great weekend y'all.  Don't forget to turn your clicks back as far as you want.
