Now you got BYU number 12, traveling to Cincinnati, the nasty natty. Yeah, I, yeah, it's a really great game, Slakes inside Nippers Stadium, and it's a really big test for BYU's rush defense. But BYU took on Utah, who was one of the 5 best rushing offenses in the country, averaging more than 260 yards per game. They were able to limit what the youths want to do offensively, which I thought could be the undoing for BYU's defense in Provo, quite the opposite. A very similar challenge against this Cincinnati team who, despite the loss last week, To Arizona, who also can bring some physicality up front, is going to be reared up and ready for this game inside Nipper. So the key for me is BYU's rushing defense against Cincinnati that without Evan Pryor, who was one of the best backs in the Big 12, have not had that third dimension to pair with Brendan Soresby and Tywie Walker to kind of pick up that production. I think Soarsby's play at the quarterback spot has kind of fallen off a little bit back to We can expect out of Sosby, at least based on what we have seen from his very long collegiate career. The dynamic rushing attack for Sisi will be key. I think BYU's rushing defense is ready for it. The Cubs never really get the respect from the oddsmaker's perspective, but I think they are in the business of winning this game and winning this game convincingly by at least a touchdown. I think I saw the line last at 4.5, 5.5 in favor of BYU on the road. I'd lay it with the Cubs. So, SEC only has two intraconference matchups. The rest of them are facing FCS teams from around, you know, the South. One of those matchups though, the big rivalry, Tennessee, Florida. Now, you know, Florida, they're in the Lane Kiffin sweepstakes. Apparently, his family's touring Gainesville and everything else. You know, Tennessee in the top 25, probably not within striking distance to be able to get into the CFP at this point, especially with that 3rd loss. But Tennessee, I understand it's on the road, only favored by 4.5 though, Ben. That seems like that's one of those smelly lines where they're just dying for you to take Tennessee. Is there's something there that we're not seeing? I, I think it's still the power ratings, Bobby, and we have seen that this year for these teams that were expected to enter with sky-high expectations and have faltered leading to the firing of a head coach, where the results have been so vastly disappointing from what we were anticipating entering 2025, but that's not necessarily how the odds. and the algorithms and the models and the power ratings assess these games. Obviously you adapt and you update based on what you are seeing, but because of all the reasons that people highlight why the Gators are an incredibly talented team with 5 to 7 NFL draft picks come April on that roster right here right now, especially on the defensive side of the ball, it's kind of the same way we have talked about Penn State who was putting together a few performances in the last few weeks to remind you that guys like Deny, Dennis Sutton, and Zachy Wheatley and other guys along that. Like Zan Durant are going to be day one or day 2 draft picks. Florida very much in the same way. I don't think DJ Ladway's development has been anywhere close to what we anticipated entering this year. I think Florida has some grave issues on the offensive side of the ball, but the balls have been really bad defensively, all year long, but really bad defensively against any offense that really has a pulse. This is another opportunity, Bobby, for a Tennessee team that I do not hold in very high regard. The best thing about Tennessee's resume is its three losses and an overtime loss at home against Georgia because Tennessee and Missouri ranked 20th and 22nd respectively in the CFP rankings here entering Week 13, had a combined 0.0 wins against an FBS opponent who is currently above 500 and it's week 13. I don't think Tennessee is all that great of a football team. I would expect them to win this game. If they do not, it would not surprise me because I don't think the balls have shown much except Joey Aguilar throwing for a lot of yards.
