Week 6 Viewing Guide

[KevinHall]

A couple of SEC games highlight this weeks games.

Texas at Oklahoma Noon FS1 This has turned into the annual Save Charlie Strong's Job Game. No different this year. This should be a high scoring game in the traditional Texas State Fair Game

Tennessee at Tex A&M 3:30 CBS How will Tennessee pull off another miracle win?

Houston at Navy 3:00 CBS Sports Network Good game between two non power five teams. Houston has to win to stay alive for a playoff spot.

Alabama at Arkansas 7:00 ESPN Seems like Arkansas always plays Bama tough. This could closer than many think.

Hopefully the miracle this week is UT getting out to a decent start and not looking back. I'd settle for that miracle for sure. a&m looks tough though. I haven't seen much on them but enough to know they are the best we will have seen all year.

I'm excited for the Arkansas v Alabama game too. Hopefully I'm in a good mood for it ha

Looks like a good day of football.....Looking forward to seeing how we bounce back from the Bama loss

Hurricane Matthew has affected a couple of SEC games. The LSU/Florida game has been canceled. It may not be made up according to the article I read. The UGA/USC game has been moved to Sunday at 2:30 pm.
As of now the Fla State/Miami will be played but FSU hadn't left yet to go to Miami. I don't see how they will be able to make it without a lot of danger.

I fully understand the many reasons it can't be played on Saturday but that game needs to be played. Either the decision to move to LSU should have been made as early as Wednesday or the commissioner should be forcing them to play on November 19th. No need to play South Alabama and Presbyterian. They would probably still have to pay those schools and I'm sure that's the biggest issue with that plan but someone needs to step in and make them play their full SEC schedule. I don't know if it will happen at this point. Could have been avoided all together if UF had any desire to play this game...

For those of you who may not know, if the UF-LSU game isn't rescheduled, and both UF and UT run the table, UF would represent the SEC in the title game, even though they lost to UT, by virtue of having a better winning percentage.

The SEC should just pay off those two popcorn states and schedule the LSU/Florida game on that date. For those schools its all about the money anyway. They could care less if they play.

Exactly. It's my understanding that neither school has agreed to this yet though. Time for new Commissioner Sankey to put his foot down. Also I'd love for the Vols to make this less of an issue by pulling the upset sometime in the next two weeks.

Here's the latest from LSU AD, Joe Alleva.

LSU AD, Joe Alleva, says on ESPN 104.5 in Baton Rouge: “The (UF) game is not going to happen at this point"

[Brother_Vol]

Ugh the UF and LSU fans in the office are aggravating the mess out of me. They are both trying to pin it on the other guy when it's pretty clear that neither side is willing to cooperate. The game can get scheduled but it won't unless they make some sacrifices that they are not currently willing to make.

Go Vols! Win Saturday! Only thing they can do

How can this be correct? UT is 5-0. If they win out they have a winning % of 100. Hard to top that.

They must be going on overall records, not just SEC records.

But UT hasn't lost. In or out of conference.

I'll try to find the article, for you, when I have the time. It was on Twitter if you want to look it for yourself.

[Matt Dillon]

I am highly embarrassed. Not only did I post this on here, but I've been saying this to people around town. I'm surprised no one said anything before now. There are several articles about this out there, but I can't find the exact one I read. The only thing I can think of is that I misread the article.
