First main pick from me on my usual NCAA picks blog is Vanderbilt to cover 12pts against Kentucky. Later Auburn host Georgia and I can see them covering the 3pt spread.

Seen this stat earlier about the Auburn Georgia game.

Auburn is but a field goal favorite in this longstanding border rivalry billed as the oldest in the Deep South. It has historically been so tight that through 116 meetings the record is 54-54-8 with an average margin of .9 points.

Is there many other rivalries that can compare to just how close this one has been over the years?

:eek:90 yard run by Oklahoma vs Iowa.

Oklahoma playing some fantastic football.

Auburn edging it 10-0, it's in the 2nd quarter. This is a huge rivalry game and I think that's been somewhat lost in the hype for perhaps the biggest Iron Bowl of all-time.

Auburn need their A-game to beat Georgia - they hammered most of this team two years running, including a 38-0 shut-out at Jordan-Hare in 2011.

Notre Dame are on a bye so I won't be ruining my Saturday night watching them sh1t the bed this week.

Unbelievable catch by a UCF receiver in the end zone helped them win over Temple.

HigginsJ

Auburn have one hell of a ground game. Great fun to watch

Texas QB , Case McCoy, throws a pick 6 in the last few seconds of the 1st half!

OSU 28 - Texas 10

Auburn going deep on third and short and getting it. Praticing for the Iron Bowl?

TD Marshall, 34-17. Great response by the Tigers after Georgia brought it back to a ten pointer. Auburn are almost home.

Georgia hanging on in there. 10 point game with 9 minutes to go

13 now. Just doesn't look possible for Georgia to out-score the Tigers by two TDs in the remainder.

skeleton_boy

6 in it now!

Syferus

TD Georgia, 37-31 in Auburn's favour.

Auburn won't be doing much throwing for the remainder of the game.

Not that they were doing much to begin with.

polaris68

To get two you need to get one first and they just done that!

polaris68

3 and out!!

johnmcdnl

Auburn crumbling?

Terrible 3 and out and a shanked punt - momentum is all with Georgia now.

polaris68

Just give it to Gurley.

HigginsJ

Give Murray credit he has been superb in the 2nd half. Some collapse by Auburn mind

johnmcdnl

Murray is short I think

His hand is down before the ball crosses the line - does that count?

And why is there no camera on the other side of the field to see from the other side?

polaris68

Oh that's close!

JaimeLannister

Such drama!

Agreed but hard to overturn

Hand doesn't matter

skeleton_boy

Not enough to overturn. Wow. That's called the other way it stays no score.

Exactly

All credit to Murray. Looks like he has pulled out a W for his team on that play!!!
