This blog will be more dedicated to the sport of football and more so towards the college side. But I've decided to try to stretch my coverage of sports to more than just college football. I've tested out how i've done so far in NFL, NBA, NHL, and SEC Men's Basketball and have my current picks record kept to the left of the page. Anyway my picks for the games on Saturday go like this
SEC Men's Basketball
#23/na Miss State 15-3 (3-0) @ Alabama 11-7 (1-3)
11:00am
TV: CBS

Preview: The SEC West leading Bulldogs are leading the SEC in 3pt% and Rebounds/game and are on a 9 game winnning streak facing a bama team that is coming off an emotional loss at home against rival tennessee..
Miss State by 3 *good game*
Auburn 10-9 (1-3) @ Vanderbilt 14-3 (3-0)
12:30pm
TV: ESPN 360
Line: Vandy -13.5
Players to Watch: Aub G DeWayne Reed 16.5ppg 4.5apg 1.3spg, Aub F Lucas Hargrove 12.9ppg 7.9rpb 0.5bpg
Preview: 2 of the SECs highest scoring teams square off as they are both coming off road wins (Vandy 89-79 @ s. carolina, Auburn 84-80 @ lsu) but Vanderbilt is unbeaten at home this year and i think they will the boards and the game..
Vanderbilt by 16
#22/#24 Ole Miss 14-4 (2-2) @ LSU 9-9 (0-4)
12:30pm
TV: ESPN 360
Line: Miss -6

Preview: The SECs #2 Scoring Off and #3 rebounding team travels to face the the struggling bengals of LSU. The tigers are coming off a home loss to auburn while Ole Miss is coming off a close home win over S. Carolina. Ole Miss has struggled on the road in the past but i think things will be different on saturday..
Ole Miss by 5 *good game*
Arkansas 8-10 (1-2) @ #2/#2 Kentucky 18-0 (3-0)
3:00pm
TV: ESPN 360
Line: Kent -16
Players to Watch: Ark G Rotnei Clarke 18.3ppg 1.5apg 0.9spg, Ark G Julysses Nobles 4.7ppg 3.8apg 1.7spg, Ark F Marshawn Powell 15.8ppg 6.7rpg 1.3bpg, Kent G John Wall 17.1ppg 6.9apg 2.1spg, Kent F Patrick Patterson 16.3ppg 7.9rpg 0.8bpg, Kent F DeMarcus Cousins 15.3ppg 9.3rpg 1.8bpg
Preview: As soon as the new rankings come out everyone knows that if the Wildcats can hold win this one than they should easily be the new #1.. Kentucky is the #1 scoring offense and the #2 rebounding team in the SEC and they are perfect at home this season.. gotta like the wildcats easy in this one..
Kentucky by 21
#8/#8 Tennessee 15-2 (3-0) @ Georgia 8-8 (0-3)
4:00pm
TV: ESPN 360
Line: Tenn -5.5
Players to Watch: Tenn G Bobby Maze 8.8ppg 3.4apg 0.9spg, UGA F Trey Thompkins 16.7ppg 8.1rpg 1.3bpg
Preview: Everyone expected a dropoff after F Tyler Smith was dismissed from the team following yet another UT athletic arrest but instead the Vols have won 9 of their last 10 including wins at home over than #1 Kansas and a comeback home win over ranked Ole Miss and a close road win at rival Alabama. Georgia has been playing some solid basketball but i think the Vols and their 46.7% fg pct are going to be too much for the bulldogs..
Tennessee by 9 *good game*
South Carolina 11-7 (2-2) @ Florida 13-5 (2-2)
5:00pm
TV: ESPN
Line: Flo -7
Players to Watch: SC G Devan Downey 21.2ppg 3.8apg 3.3spg, Flo G Erving Walker 12.9ppg 4.9apg 1.6spg, Flo F Alex Tyus 11.9ppg 6.9rpg 0.9bpg
Preview: Both of these teams have had their streaks this season and both have fallen on rough times recently.. South Carolina is coming off a close loss at ranked Ole Miss and Florida is coming off a close win at Arkansas.. South Carolina has shown they can be tough on the road but Florida is a solid home team but where they have their biggest advantage is on the boards and that is where i think Florida wins this close one..
