October 29 in the SEC

The two greatest teams in college football, LSU and Alabama, have a bye this week. But, #10 Arkansas travels to Nashville to play the 'Dores in an early afternoon contest. Petrino's Pigs are too powerful for Vanderbilt. Hogs 38, fightin' James Franklins 20.

At 3:30, CBS will broadcast the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party live from Jacksonville, Florida. Mark Richt hopes to improve on his 2-8 record in this contest, but that will be no easy feat. Although his team currently sports an un-gatorlike 4-3 record, Will Muschamp has explosive playmakers in Jeff Demps, Chris Rainey, and Trey Burton. With two weeks to prepare, offensive coordinator Charlie Weiss will have some trump cards ready to play on Saturday. For Georgia, talented linebacker, Alec Ogletree returns to a Bulldog defense that brings a few tricks of its own. Don't know which way this game's gonna go, so I'll make this prediction straight from my heart. Dawgs 20, Florida 16.

Both schools from the fattest state in America 6 years running are gonna be in action at 7 PM. In a game worthy of ESPN3, Dandy Dan Mullen will get his first SEC victory of 2011 in Lexington, Kentucky. No offense + issues on the defensive side of the ball doesn't bode well for the Wildcats. Mississippi State is less bad. Dogs 24, Kats 14. Meanwhile, the Ole Miss Rebels will be looking to exchange their conference doughnut for a biscuit in the win column. Ain't gonna happen. The Rebs will be on their way to another loss inside Jordan-Hare Stadium. War Eagle Tigers 31, Rebs 12.

Bringing the conference back to relevance, Tennessee hosts #13 South Carolina at 7:15 on ESPN2. No Lattimore, no Stephen Garcia, no visor atop Steve Spurrier's head. Major upset of the day, as Derek Dooley gets the biggest win of his Volunteer career. Vols 24, Gamecocks 17. You're welcome, Barbara.

These are my picks for the week. Can ya'll do any better? Feel free to leave comments or join me on twitter.
