I figured if the NFL could go Pink your ole’ Southern Man could pen a little poetry in honor of all the women in our lives.

It’s also time to take a look at the SEC action for week five.  We are looking at a week that is underrated and will have a lot to say about who is contending and who is pretending.

Let’s start in Jerry’s new Mecca, shall we?

Arkansas 1-2 (0-2 SEC) v. Texas A&M 3-0 (0-0)

Petrino’s Hogs need a big win, this much is true.  But these Aggies are balling and Jerrod Johnson is too.

This kid for the Heisman, you better not laugh.  You can talk Tebow and Mac but just for the Draft. (I’m telling you, if you don’t know this kid you soon will)

TAMU 41 – Arkansas 34

____________________________________________________________

No.21 Ole’ Mississippi 2-1 (0-1 SEC) @ Vanderbilt 2-2 (0-2 SEC)

The Rebels are yelling, still feeling the hurt.  Can these Vandy Commodores win on their own turf?  Probably Not!

Ole Miss 38 – Vandy 24

____________________________________________________________

South Carolina State 3-0 (1-0) @ USC 3-1 (1-1 SEC)

The Ole Ball Coach might be looking to poach, but if you sleep on State you might wake up too late.

Close early then Carolina gets Cocky. 

USC 38 – SC State 23

____________________________________________________________

No.25 Ga. Tech 3-1 (2-1 ACC) @ Mississippi State 2-2 (1-2 SEC) 

The Yellow Jackets run with Paul Johnson’s buzz, but Mississippi state is trying to forget the (goal line) stand that was.

Don’t leave the Dog’s on the porch and they’ll need more cow bell.  But State will be barking, they will bite as well!

UPSET ALERT!

Miss State 24 – GTech 17

________________________________________________________________

No.1 Florida (Idle)

A rest for the Gators comes none to soon! Will a knock to the super nogen mean impending doom?

________________________________________________________________________

Tennessee 2-2 (0-1) @ Auburn 4-0 (1-0)

Kiffin the younger plans to catch some Zs (ChiZik, MalZahn) @ Rocky Top.

Will Crompton again be a goat or will he finally open the Big Orange pop?

Auburn 41 – UT 24

________________________________________________________________

No.3 Alabama 4-0 (1-0 SEC) @ Kentucky 2-1 (0-1 SEC)

The Evil Empire takes a trek to the Hills, don’t expect a Blue Grass revolt, the elephant will march at will!

Alabama 100 – UK 3 (It could be worse!)

___________________________________________________________________

No.4 LSU 4-0 (2-0 SEC) @ No.14 UGA 3-1 (2-0 SEC)

Betixt the hedges, it looks like war.  Will the paper Tigers finally roar?

Will the scrappy Dawg have it’s day? I’m afraid not, can you pass the mustard my way?

Hot dawgs, get your hot dawgs!

LSU 37 – UGA 24

That’s all for now, I’m afraid it’s all I’ve got. Enjoy the weekend, because this Season is getting Hot!
