Week Two Picks

I didn't get to do my week one picks because of Gustav issues, but I'll go ahead and get up the conference picks on week two. And though it's late and I didn't get them up before South Carolina v. Vandy, in the interests of full disclosure I would have picked South Carolina, so add that one accordingly.

Auburn over Southern Miss: I think it will be close, and I wouldn't be overly shocked to see USM pull it off, but it's hard to go against Auburn in this one.

Wake Forest over Ole Miss: The Rebels will put up a decent fight, but it won't be enough. The ACC will emerge with the slightest of all shreds of dignity.

Georgia over Central Michigan: The only real storyline is whether UGA stays healthy.

Kentucky over Norfolk State: Obviously.

Alabama over Tulane: Repeat after me: It. Won't. Happen. Again.

MSU over SELA: The last win for a while for the Bullies.

Arkansas over ULM: It will be another nailbiter, and I'm not going to be the least bit surprised if ULM pulls it off, and one might even go as far as expecting it given how terrible Arkansas was in the opener. Still, it's essentially impossible to rationally pick a Sun Belt team over an SEC team.

Florida over Miami: The 'Canes will be improved, but not by enough. Florida's offense rolls up a ton of points and wins big.

LSU over Troy: I know they aren't technically playing this weekend, but regardless of whether it's now or November, the result will be the same.
