Week 7 Recap



Week 7 Recap


     Week 7 will go down as "Upset Weekend" for many teams. And I have to say that my picks were awful. So, like some of you fans out there, I don't want to dwell on week 7 for long, so let me get the recap out of the way. I promise, I will try to keep it short.
 
 
 
     A game I felt like I should have put on upset alert? Georgia hosting Missouri. Truthfully, I felt like the home field advantage would be the difference. Obviously, Georgia's injuries are proving to be a big part of their problems. A loss like this for Georgia pretty much leaves the SEC East wide open. In fact, I think it wouldn't be out of the question for the SEC East Champion to have 2+ losses. Florida doesn't look the part, South Carolina has shown flashes, and Georgia just has too many injuries. Missouri? Well, they could, but they have some injuries of their own. QB James Franklin won't be starting anytime soon. Thanks Georgia, for creating some drama in the SEC East.
 
 
 
     Looks like Mack Brown will be around for a little while longer. Texas rolled over Oklahoma as if it was the Sooners with all the problems. It was a solid rivalry game and it had all the makings for this game to go down as a classic in the "Red River Rivalry". Thanks Oklahoma, thanks a lot. Just another season where Coach Bob Stoops finds a way to lose a game he shouldn't. Aren't Sooner fans tired of that yet?
 
 
 
     Okay, what about a team that had their backs against the wall, but came out on top? Clemson managed to survive Boston College. I thought Clemson would dominate in this game, but it is clear that Boston College has come a very long ways since last season. With Clemson's win, that keeps the Tigers at #3 in the AP Poll and sets up for a BIG SHOWDOWN this weekend in Death Valley with Florida State.
 
 
 
     Stanford fell to Utah. What do you say about this game? Yes, it's pretty obvious that Stanford was caught looking ahead instead of focusing on one game at a time. One by one, the undefeated teams are dropping. And Florida State fans can send their 'thank you' cards to Stanford. With their loss, FSU moved up to #5, which sets up for a top 5 matchup in Death Valley this weekend.
 
 
 
      Michigan proved they weren't as tough as their record may have shown. I warned that Penn State would be fighting really hard for that one signature win..... and sure enough, they got it. Great win for Penn State and their fans.
