Weekend Preview 7.3

LSU @ Kentucky

Viewer Rating: 3* We saw last week what happens when Kentucky plays a team with a good defense. This week they play a great one. LSU has more talent at every position save QB. This one should be over by the third quarter, but we know what happened last time the Tigers played in the Bluegrass State…….

You may want to keep an eye on this one, just in case

What to Watch: If Woodson wants to get back in the Heisman race, then what better way than against the number one team in all the land. I just don’t see it happening. But for Woodson to have a good day, Kentucky must have success running the football, like Florida. That’s gonna be a tall order for the Wildcats against that defensive front. I also think we’ll see a ball control offense in the first half for LSU, then if they get up a couple of scores, they’ll thrown in a few trick plays just to give their next opponents something to think about.

Who to Watch: LSU boasts the best non-quarterback caucasion starters in the SEC in human piledriver Jacob Hester and safety extraordinaire Craig Steltz giving hope to crackers everywhere. And after seeing the havoc that South Carolina’s defensive front caused, I’m sure Dorsey, Jackson, et al. are licking their chops. Literally.

The Steve Nash of the defensive backfield, except he’s not Canadian

Who Will Win: Unless LSU comes out flat, which is very possible after the Florida game, in this (Caution: ESPN chosen phrase of the year about to be invoked) “trap game”, they should win fairly easily, and by should I mean in any other year besides 2007 where down is up and up is sideways.

Against the Spread: Kentucky getting ten points at home is tempting, but I have to go with LSU. Let me remind you that I am reliable as a coin flip at picking agin’ the spread.

    I just finished watching the “Miracle in the Bluegrass State” less than an hour ago on ESPN Classic.

    I was almost as stunned as I was when watching it live.

    I have not gotten tired of that video YET. Gives me chills each and every time. As for Saturday’s game, let’s hope Steltz has one of his 4+ interception games and sends Woodson to the shed — cryin’ like Tebow.
