College Football Game Of The Week

There’s no doubt about it…

If you want to see the best college football game this coming weekend, then you need to dial up the Alabama vs. Georgia game this coming Saturday night.

Last year’s game went into overtime, with the Dawgs coming out on top 26–23 in Tuscaloosa. As much of a barnburner that game turned out to be, this year’s contest has already been turned up to 11.

Both teams are unbeaten so far this year.

#8 ranked Alabama is looking to prove that they are truly back, thanks to the stellar coaching of Nick Saban, Alabama’s dominating offensive and defensive lines, and the prowess of the Tide’s freshman phenoms.

Despite being the pre-season #1 ranked team in the nation, Georgia has fallen to #3 and wants to prove to the BCS championship voters that they should move back up in the rankings.

Make no mistake about it, both teams will be ready to rumble. Georgia’s planning to wear their ”secret weapon” black jerseys, and have called for their fans to execute a “blackout” in the stands.

Droves of Alabama fans have already stared making the trip to Athens to support the Tide.

This game is the epitome of SEC football.

As I’ve said before here at the Funcave, I have an enormous amount of respect for Mark Richt and what he’s accomplished in rebuilding the storied Georgia progam back to national prominence. A lot of other people in the Tide Nation feel the same way.

So, win or lose, I expect it will be a game marked by a lot of hard play, but a lot of respect and class at the end.

The only thing that would make this weekend better? If I could score some tickets and attend the game in person.
