ghosts, ghouls, things of that nature
South Carolina vs Texas A&M -14: Man do I hope South Carolina (the worst team in the SEC now?) wins this. It's not going to happen, but it would give TAMU some serious anxiety.
Georgia vs Florida +14.5: I'm glad that guy got hurt
Mississippi State +6.5 vs Auburn: 6.5, that reads more like the o/u for this one. Imagine trusting this Auburn team to do literally anything for you. This is going to be bad football, and I feel bad that I'm going to watch the entire thing.
Tennessee -3.5 vs Kentucky: Tennessee keeps hurting me, let's keep it up
Vanderbilt +24.5 vs Old Mist: Seems like a lot

I woke up at 1:15 am and was unable to get back to sleep because I was going over a report that I dreamed up and now that i'm completely awake I remember that it was about chicken fingers and which faucet they are supposed to come out of. it made sense from 1:15 to 5:00 this morning.

It is getting so spook-dang spooky
Mississippi State +6 vs Arkansas: sure
South Carolina vs Missouri -7: Missouri seems to be peaking
Tennessee +8.5 vs Alabama: Feels like a game that's going to be lower scoring than predicted
Old Mist -6.5 vs Auburn : Look for me at the game; I'll be wearing orange and blue.
Army vs LSU -30.5: ???
{v}{v}{v}{v}{v}{v}{v}{v}{v}{v}{v}
The two games I feel most confident about are Missouri and Old Mist. Since Old Mist is on the road, that means Missourah.

When was the last time October 13th was a Friday? The answer is simple: last year and every year before that. Spooky Season.
Some of these seem very wrong!
Georgia -31.5
Alabama -19.5
Florida +2.5
TAMU +3.5
Auburn +11.5
Kentucky -2.5
{v}
1. {v}163.65 on LSU -400 to win {v}40.91
2. {v}40.91 on Florida +110 to win {v}45.00
Spookiness intensifies
I'm now inspired to call my picks "the pearl of the Gulf." These picks are "the pearl of the Gulf."
Georgia vs. Vanderbilt +31.5: Seems like a lot
Arkansas vs Alabama -19.5: Recently learned that the Pit Man's buyout halves if he has a career record below .500. He is currently 21-21, with some tough sledding ahead. You'd think that would make me pick Arkansas, but no.
Florida +2.5 vs South Carolina: Is it more weird that Florida is an underdog to South Carolina, or more weird that it's not that surprising?
Texas A&M vs Tennessee -3.5: I originally wrote "that pudgy freak better not let me down this time," but I realize that doesn't really clarify which head coach I am talking about.
Auburn +11.5 vs LSU: I like Auburn coming off an off week, but not enough to pick them.
Missouri +115 vs Kentucky -140, -2.5 T:52.5: spooky
:( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(
Not working with a lot of bux.
Gimme {v}126 on Tennessee -3.5 vs. TAMU, to win {v}114.55.

oh man if it ain't the dang old spooky season
I realized this morning that it would have been funny to include the Red River Shootout on the list of conference games.
LSU vs. Missouri +6.5: Feels like another barnburner
Western Michigan vs. Mississippi State -20.5: who cares
Alabama -2.5 vs. Texas A&M: Not buying it
Vanderbilt +18 vs. Florida: If Florida lost to Vanderbilt, would Louisiana Billy make it to the end of the season?
Kentucky +14.5 vs. Georgia: I think we're looking at a 20-10 kind of score here.
Arkansas vs. Old Mist -11.5: It's weird about Sam Pittman, because Arkansas fans seem to love him, but also they seem to think he's not a good coach and want him gone.

Betting time: guh! Working with {v}497.27. Time to go dumber.
