Halloween Football Forecast

The Tide is off, but there is still some good games this weekend, so put up the fishing poll and check out these match-ups…

 Auburn vs. Ole Miss(25)   Auburn, AL 11:20am

 These are two teams going through a mid-season slump. Auburn briefly reached the top 25 before falling out and Ole Miss is clinging to the last spot in the poll. It’s very unlikely either of these teams will catch up with LSU or ‘Bama and win the west, so this is a battle for bowl position. If you’re going to the game it will be wet. Bring a poncho because there is a 70% chance of rain and storms with temps in the low 60s.

 Florida(1) vs. Georgia   Jacksonville, FL 2:30pm

 It’s the big ol’ cocktail party in J-ville… Growing up in Jacksonville I can tell you this is big-time rivalry. If Florida doesn’t take care of business the Dawgs will take a big bite of Gator meat, possibly killing their National Championship hopes. I know who Tide fans will be pulling for… Weather at game time will be just plain hot. Temps will be in the mid 80s under partly cloudy skies.

 South Alabama vs. Fork Union Military Acad.   Mobile, AL 4pm

 The 4-0 Jags are hosting another victim this weekend. This time it’s the Blue Devils of Fork Union Military Academy. Weather shouldn’t be a big issue, but it’s possible there could be some light drizzles and it will likely be fairly windy.  Temps will be in the mid 60s dropping into the 50s by game’s end.

 USC(5) @ Oregon(10)    Eugene, OR  7:00pm

 This is definitely the big game of the weekend. While you’re holding down the house and passing out the candy this will be a good one to watch. Weather at game time will be cool and damp with temps in the upper 40s and scattered showers in Eugene.
