    I'll go on the record first and say that South Carolina will beat Auburn. Feel free to call me crazy. After the game, also feel free to give me credit for being right.

    Then again, maybe I am truly crazy.:confused:

    Oregon State won't have enough to beat Oregon. They are out of gas. Their two early losses to Boise State and TCU were respectable. Then they won at Arizona. But ever since, the life has gone out of OSU and they have sputtered. The Ducks should destroy them.

    I will join you on the Auburn loses, Oregon wins, bandwagon.

    I feel like Spurrier will have a great game plan to shut down Cam and expose Auburn's weak defense. Really all he has to do is copy Alabama's game plan from the first half.

    The game will be close, I think the one thing that Auburn has in this game is the fact that they know if they win, they will be going to the national championship game... there's nothing bigger than that. South Carolina also has something to play for... a BCS bowl game. It'll come down to who wants it more, that's why I love these games... especially since it's the SEC.

    If they are to lose, I'm all for TCU to get in the national championship. But, they'll get their asses handed to them by Oregon.

    I'm pulling for the cocks and beavers.

    I hope cocks can rise this weekend.

    In the end, Oregon is going to win it all though

    In related news, the Big 12 can go **** itself and I can't wait until it breaks up for good. Could care less whether it's the Big East or something like that, just want out of this trainwreck.

    Revenue sharing in the WAC conference. Boise going to a BCS bowl would've brought millions into revenue sharing for the conference. The loss knocked Boise out of a BCS game and moved Nevada into a slightly better bowl game, however, the overall effect is a huge loss for Nevada and the rest of the WAC in revenue sharing.

    It is so crazy around here in Charleston (SC). I can't even imagine how into the Gamecock-Auburn game they are in Columbia.

    It's all they can talk about. Heck, even Clemson fans around here are all into it.

    The TV station here in Charleston is doing a 2 hour special pre-game intro before the the game and everything.

    Interesting things to note about this game:

    No team has beaten two teams ranked No. 1 in the same season. South Carolina already beat No. 1 Alabama.

    This calendar year South Carolina has beaten No. 1 Arizona St. in baseball, No. 1 Kentucky in basketball, and No. 1 Alabama in football. They lost to No. 1 Florida in volleyball. So this South Carolina's 5th sporting event against a No. 1 team and they are 3-1 so far in those match ups. (They also have a match against No. 1 Texas A&M's Equestrian team in January 2011.)

    I think the Beavers will put up a pretty good fight against us but we should win fairly easily.

    I'm a bit torn on the Auburn vs SC game. I want Auburn to win and hold up their end of the bargain to set up a fantastic NC game against us. At the same time I wouldn't mind Auburn losing cause that would mean a lesser opponent in the NC game and a better chance to win it all for the first time ever.

    Either way 1 + 1 to go. GO DUCKS!!!!!!

    I just want Texas to go to the SEC or the Pac-10. I'm tired of this bull **** I hear every year when the Longhorns are winning about the pathetic schedule. Moving to either one of those conferences would solve that.

    Hope yal are right on Auburn losing. Otherwise it's just gonna be cam newton and the college stripped of a national championship. Slow ass investigations. Everyone gets ****ed except Cam Newton, who will be making millions in the NFL.
