First Annual Paul Crewe Survivor Pool: Week 9

And then there were 10. We said good bye to JR Ella last week. JR got drunk, ate 12 pounds of mushrooms, then spun in circles for a half hour straight before winding up on Florida. In hindsight, maybe it's not the worst pick. Okay, yes, yes it was. Otherwise we had four picks for Bama, three for LSU, two for Ole Miss and a single vote for Missouri. Let's take a look at who is remaining the teams they have to choose:

Hard to pick a prohibitive favorite here. Maybe Xan, because he's off the Vandy boat. That said, he's still got a sinking Florida and Texas A&M to pick too. Curious that all but two of you have saved Auburn to date.

This Week's Games

UAB @ Arkansas
#1 Mississippi State @ Kentucky
Vanderbilt @ Missouri
#3 Ole Miss @ #24 LSU
South Carolina @ #5 Auburn
#4 Alabama @ Tennessee

This might be one of the "easier" weeks remaining with a lot of the bottom half of the conference facing off against the top half. South Carolina typically springs an upset along the way, could this be it? Ole Miss is a narrow favorite over an LSU team that hasn't beaten anyone of note, though they are at home. Arkansas has a nice matchup, so long as they are focused.
