Must have just missed it.... was trying to list the top 5 or 10 of the AP and then list the SEC teams of that in Bold. (instead of posting the entire Top 25).

Wow, who could have imagined that here we are in the 7th week of the season and look at the standings. The might USC has fallen and LSU is at the top. But look at some of the other names in the top 10, Boston College, USF, could anyone have picked this ranking pre-season? I doubt it or you would be rich. What odds were Vegas giving USF to be in the top 10? That is what is so great about college football, it's the unpredictability. Also, I find it more than a little coincidental that the point I initially made has proven itself correct. The point that the SEC is not the only conference that has great football teams. As we have seen in the last two weeks, anything can happen to anyone, and we still have a long row to hoe. I, like the rest of you, am anxious to see how the last half of the season plays out.
And believe me I am beyond ecstatic to see my former team headed by a personal friend at number 2. In fact, I notice the Pac-10 has three teams in the top 10. No other conference seems to match that. Oh, but there are many games left so we'll have to wait and see.
BTW, for you LSU and Auburn Tiger fans here's a pic for you. This was taken my junior year in college and at the time, was the second biggest Siberian tiger recorded in captivity. He weighed in at 1500lbs. +/- and was only bested by his father. So you see, I have experience with Tigers.
Time out............How long were you @ 600 #s--ie if that cat's 1500, you're pushing 600???.........No way that cat right there weighted 1500 #s.......btw, I have done some research on Seiberian Tigers since we got Mike & the books state they weigh up to 800#'s.......Come back with a better story........

I enjoyed the picture very much. Thanks for sharing it. It is amazing how much the BIG CATS seem like house cats that you could just pet and love on but boy can they be dangerous. I'm still jealous that you got to pet a big kitty. I think tigers are absolutely beautiful. This AU Tiger fan is glad you shared. It was right thoughtful of you.

EDIT. PIC was HUGE. So changing to link as it made thread page WAY too wide.
If they stayed that small and cute forever, everyone would want one.

That is him(I forgot to say I was referring to the 2 grown guys).........I remember when Mike V got to campus in about '91(our oldest was a junior there & working @ Pennington part time)..Pennington being a major contributor to LSU, they brought him by the 1st day in BR, he was a little thing close to that size & she got to play with him.....The next time she saw him about 8 months later(1st fb game) "he is huge" was her remarks to us.....
Here's a video I shot of him this past Saturday, about 330# now--going to 700+ in 2-3 years according to the lead LSU vet, Dr. Baker.........

Like the first scratch on a new car the first loss is the hardest. Several weeks ago I had predicted to my friends that Kentucky was the team with the best chance to upset LSU. When you come off a big emotional win against Florida with a #1 target on your back you can expect a letdown plus injuries are starting to catch up with us. LSU made too many mistakes at crucial times and receivers continued to drop catchable balls. I think we should be able run the table the rest of the year. It ain'tt over till it's over.
