Big freaking win by Kentucky tonight ... with a TD with about 1:15 left, they beat #10 South Carolina in a game that USC thought they had won early. ( 31-28 )

Winner :(

LSU (winner) :(  Crazy freakin game

Tennessee (winner)

Florida (winner) :(

Oregon (winner) :(

Tennessee (winner)

Tennessee took care of business against an overmanned UT Martin squad ( 50-0 ) Auburn looked good during their 52-26 drubbing of Arkansas State Alabama destroyed San Jose State in the opening of their title defense ( 48-3 ) Kentucky looked great...for a half, but held on to beat Louisville 23-16 . Game of the Day: Jacksonville State 49  Mississippi 48 (double overtime)   heh

UT Martin travels to Knoxville tonight for the 1st game of the 2010 campaign.  Tennessee is not expected to do much this year with new players, new coach, etc. but this game should be cake to get ready for the brutal stretch coming up.

Great game; Tennessee dominated the 2nd half but couldn't put Kentucky away. With very little time left, UT completed a first down pass that would have finished the game, but a great hit by the UK defense caused a fumble. The defense (UT) held at the 8 and Kentucky made the kick that sent it to overtime. Kentucky couldn't move and missed a field goal. Tennessee moved at will and scored on a 20-yard run by Hardesty (his 3rd of the game) and stretched the streak to . Maybe next year EMB [ 30-24 ]

High School: Austin lost a battle 31-24 to Buckhorn that sadly means no playoffs this year (no link) College: Tennessee outplayed Alabama, but lost on a blocked kick as time expired ( my post ) Pro: Dallas looked good and dismantled a previously 1 loss Falcon team that has playoff aspirations ( 37-21 ) Mixed bag weekend; 2 losses and 1 win (won in fantasy league also, but meh) so not good, but all teams played hard and had a chance to win...

Tennessee outplayed the #2 team in the country (Alabama, #1 in the AP) but it was still short (thanks to Ala blocking 2 field goals and the kicker missing another). 12-10 Ala and a great game. If Alabama doesn't fix their qb, LSU will own em heh bleh Tags: football , NCAA , Tennessee , Alabama

Tennessee plays at Alabama tomorrow (3:30 eastern / CBS) Going to be a rough game, our defense is good and I like their chances against the Ala offense. Their defense is great though and our offense is ... never know. The line is 14 1/2 for Ala, take the points and go with UT (Auburn plays LSU also) Tags: Tennessee , Alabama , football , NCAA

Tennessee has an off week this week, so no game (Dallas does also in the NFL); but there were plenty of good games in the college ranks. Kentucky had not beaten Auburn since 1966 (stretch of 16 games, they don't play every year) and that streak looked to stay intact this year. Auburn got the early lead but couldn't stop the 'vaunted' Kentucky run game :) After a late touchdown put Ky up 21-14 (with a little over 3 minutes left in the game), the defense held Auburn out and celebrated the win. Ohio State looked like a Big Ten team in a bowl game... but they were playing Purdue and you only get to mess up so many times before it bites ya. 26-18 Boilermakers Virginia Tech has been making a lot of noise this year; they lost game 1 to Alabama but have been crushing people ever since. Losing your 1st game to a highly rated team won't hurt you on the way to the National Championship, but losing a 2nd game to Georgia Tech will. GT 28 VT 23 Tags: Kentucky , Auburn , Oh...

Ouch According to documents released Tuesday, the NCAA in responding to Alabama's textbook appeal called Alabama a "serial repeat violator" with an "abysmal infractions track record" and an "extensive recent history of infractions cases unmatched by any other member institution in the NCAA." I'm a SEC guy and love to see the conference win the NT every year (almost), of course I don't actually like every team and have hated Alabama since I was little :) I don't actually hate them anymore (the one good thing from the BCS?) but that doesn't mean I can't poke fun at them from time to time [most of the fans I know around here are big Roll Tide people, so this just makes it all the better].

Started a new blog roll (on the side bar there) click if you want to join :) [3x is for 30-something bloggers, but anyone can join if they want to] Sports update for this weekend (since it's a holiday, raining and I got nothing): Austin in the rain defeated Sparkman 10-7 . Tennessee (with an offense) killed Georgia 45-19 . Dallas (with little offense) had to goto O/T to beat the winless Chiefs 26-20 . But 3-0 for me this weekend is a good weekend (my fantasy team got killed though, heh) Tags: 3X bloggers , sports , football , Tennessee , Dallas , Austin

I was almost prophetic last week when I said that the last quarter was the most important thing (the fact that Crompton looked like a quarterback). The momentum of that little run carried over this week and Tennessee destroyed Georgia. The first-year coach got some help from Jonathan Crompton , who passed for a career-high 310 yards and threw for four touchdowns.( link ) The game wasn't as close as the 45-19 score; the UGA special teams got a touchdown and safety and the defense got a TD off a tipped pass. Otherwise the Tennessee team played outstanding and now get a week off to prepare for the murderous trip to Alabama ( Bama 22 Ole Miss 3 ) Tags: Tennessee , Crompton , football , NCAA

UT vs Georgia today in Knoxville. Both teams are coming off hard losses (Georgia with a controversial loss due to the 'excessive celebration' penalty and UT with the fact that they have no O) and both will be looking to rebound. The country and the experts are all taking Georgia (they have a QB) but it should be a good game. Our defense is good enough to win the game if the offense can keep from making mistakes and stay on the field long enough to get the D a breath on occasion. Other games: (1) Florida at (4) Lsu , (3) Alabama at (20) Ole Miss, (17) Auburn at Arkansas Take Florida, Alabama and Arkansas with the points. Tags: Tennessee , Georgia , football , NCAA

Green Bay at Minnesota tonight. Brett Favre goes against the team that didn't want him (after he retired on them and then decided months later that he wanted his job back and cried about it) and the qb that took his spot (Rodgers). I have no vested interest in either team except that I lead my fantasy game by 16 points and I need Grant (GB), Harvin (Minn) and Minnesota's kicker to not exceed that total :) Atm it's 14-14 and I've given up 4 points on my lead... if it stays like this, I'm good and 3-1 on the season.
