What are you looking at? Week 6 2011

It's already week six and you know what that means.  Time for some good old fashioned hate (Fresno state defense not included).

11:00 (Really?) #1 OU at #11 Texas (ABC)
Whoever thought an 11:00 AM game at the texass state fair was a good idea should be beaten.  The only thing open before 10am is the car show and while they do sell beer there, it's hard to get around because of all of the carts.  The whorns come to the cotton bowl with their quarterback wonderwheel with a 15th ranked pass efficiency and the 5th ranked pass efficiency defense.  Horns are tied for 7th in turnover margin, which is 14 places better than the Sooners who have had some ball protection issues lately.  Horns will probably try to exploit bad positioning by the Sooners D just like Mizzou a couple weeks ago.  OU will lead with a healthy dose of the run game against Texsa 34th ranked rushing D.
Sooners are favored by 11.  My crimson colored glasses are telling me that OU covers.


2:30 #17 Florida at #1 LSU
The Gators come in to Death Valley reeling from their home loss to Bama last week.  LSU doesn't have much of a passing game(101st) but they really haven't had to still scoring an average of 27 ppg once they got into SEC play.  The Florida front on D hasn't been the difference maker that they've been in the past being pretty mediocre in both tackles for loss and sacks.  When the Gators have the ball, they'll lead with Demps and Rainey while trying to keep freshman Jeff Driskoll and the Gators 86th ranked passing offense ahead of the chains.  LSU's defense will dominate the gators.
Vegas says LSU by 14.  I haven't seen anything from the Gators that convinces me otherwise. 

The 7pm slot is a toss up.  Really can't stomach another SEC game with Auburn at Arkansas or a putrid B1G matchup with the Buckeyes at Nebraska.  May just watch Texas A&M collapse in the 2nd half against Tech.  It's like watching a train wreck, but who doesn't like that? 

I'm thinking that I'm smoking a pork loin and making tacos for a mid afternoon snack.
