Week 4
The SEC rolled again this past weekend as the conference was 6-0 against outside opponents. In SEC play, Alabama, A&M, LSU and Georgia all won big time games.
The question from week three is has Mississippi State, Auburn and LSU found their starting quarterbacks? All three teams’ offensive units stalled at times. MSU and Auburn are still seeking a full-time starter while LSU is content at the moment.
This week brings us another great schedule of conference games. Several undefeated matchups highlight the schedule. The SEC has seven undefeated teams entering the week. Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Tennessee and Texas A&M are those teams with an unblemished record.
Four of those teams will meet on the field this weekend. Texas A&M and Arkansas will meet in Dallas while Tennessee hosts Florida in the headlines games. Ole Miss will host undefeated Georgia while Auburn will entertain undefeated LSU.
Texas A&M has found their defense this year. The Aggies limited the Auburn offense to only a final minute TD to win on the road. Arkansas rolled for the ninth time in their last ten games in a rout of Texas State. The Hogs will keep rolling. Arkansas 37, Texas A&M 30.
Florida quarterback Luke Del Rio injured his knee in the Gators' 32-0 win over North Texas last week. The Gators defense dominated the Mean Green in the win. Tennessee performed at a lackluster pace but held on for the win over Ohio. The Vols will rebound. Tennessee 20, Florida 17.
Mississippi State came alive in the second half in Baton Rogue to show the rest of the SEC that the Bulldogs will not roll over. The Bulldogs hit the road to Massachusetts this Saturday. The Bulldogs will even their record at 2-2. MSU 40, Mass. 13.
Ole Miss is coming off a heartbreaking loss. The Rebels' offense is Chad Kelly. The senior signal caller has two turnovers, but the Rebels would not have scored without the Buffalo, New York, native. The Rebels are reeling and the Dogs keep winning the close games. Georgia 31, Ole Miss 27.
USM was stunned at home by Troy University last week. The Eagles turned the ball over too much to win. The Eagles will dominate this week. USM 52, UTEP 7.
Alabama 38, Kent State 0; LSU 17, Auburn 10; Kentucky 28, South Carolina 24; Missouri 28, Delaware St. 14; Vanderbilt 27, Western Kentucky 21.
Going only 7-4, the Scribe struggled last week. The Scribe is now 28-8 on the season.
