I went 6-1 for week 4. My overall record is 26-9.
The East went 3-1 against the West this week. The East has two undefeated teams and three one-loss teams. UT is pulling up the rear with a 2-2 record. The West only has one undefeated team and two one-loss teams. Arkansas and Ole Miss only have one win. The West is definitely down this year, but they have the team that will win the conference.
East
UF 30 - OM 24
So this one wasn't quite the blowout I predicted. What went wrong for UF? 127 penalty hards definitely didn't help. Ole Miss did gain more yardage than UT against the gators. Maybe they aren't as bad as everyone thought. Nah, it's just one of those one-offs.
UGA 26 - Bama 23 (OT)
My gut wanted to pick UGA for this game, but I think a little homerism might have been involved in that. My brain said "Bama" so Bama I chose. Even with 2 interceptions, Stafford was impressive. UGA's defense further proved that Sara Jessica has trouble when pressured. At least he put the blame of the loss on himself, which is more than I can say about Saban.
UK 42 - Arkansas 29
This one was a tale of two offenses. Bama exposed Arkansas' weak secondary last week. Woodson took advantage of this throwing for 265 yards and 2 TDs. The hogs could only muster 1 offensive touchdown. That's amazing considering how many yards they got on offense, 495. Jones averaged 11.1 on the ground and returned a kickoff for a TD.
UT 48 - ASU 27
UT's opponents are averaging 439 yards and 37.5 points a game. Those numbers a skewed a bit by the Cal and UF games, but ASU still managed to gain 377 yards and score 27 points. The great pumpkin really might be on the "hot terlet".
Vandy - off
West
LSU 28 - USC 16
This one went as expected. LSU held the cocks to only 17 yards on the ground, but Smelley and Mitchell were able to gain 244 yards in the air. Flynn was only 8 for 19 and threw his first interception of the year. LSU's offense only gained 70 in the air. That looks to be their weakness. Their defense is an absolute force though.
MSU 31 - Gardner-Webb 15
Yup, Gardner-Webb's high-powered offense put more on the boards against MSU than Auburn did last week. They also managed to not turn the ball over 5 times. Kudos to them.
Auburn 55 - NMSU 20
Auburn fans are celebrating after this one. Not because of the win, but because of the play. Yes, NMSU is a bad team. But hey, so is MSU. The fans are celebrating because the Tigers actually looked like a football team. Auburn fans rolled their eyes when Cox fumbled his first snap of the game, but their hearts were warmed when the student section started chanting his name later on in the game.
