Football should always be played at night.

That 2005 post-Katrina loss hurt. A lot. I've never heard the stadium so quiet. Just a slow procession of zombies emptying the stadium.

That's all? Is it because TN had a bye?

LSU by 2 points. Field goal kicked with no time left, for 47 yards, right hash. Kicker gets carried off the field.

I hate to say it, but if Tennessee scores 30, they're winning. 27-24 tigers with at least 3 ints.

That makes no sense. The defense hasn’t been impressive for Tennessee.

The only game in the SEC between two Top 25 teams next weekend is... set for kickoff at 11:00 AM. They should wait until the previous games are finished before picking their start times.

I know that there's a lot of planning/logistics etc. but seems like they could pick 1 week out instead of 2.
