that the SEC is run like Professional Wrestling?

MSU could beat Alabama, but the commissioner comes in, "Sorry, boys, it's not your week," right before the game?

On the other hand, unpopular calls are part of the game -- look at Notre Dame at Florida State, those officials actually gave the game to FSU, right?

And I can't tell you how many games I have seen where kicking the football has been the nemesis. Alabama has a history of ridiculous kicking. Forget Alabama at Auburn last year? Even LSU 9, Alabama 6 a couple years ago? Oregon and Boise State lost seasons on the kicking game?

The marvel of football is when it all comes together, and we get games that keep you on the edge of your seat. We had 2 games last Saturday, I hope we have many more to come.
