If Lee Corso puts on a Gator head at the end of Gameday, I fear for his safety in Baton Rouge because few fan bases tailgate it up like the LSU faithful and by the time it's Saturday night in Tiger Stadium, one of the great atmospheres in college football, some fans are going to be chanting Tiger bait in Corso's direction. It might even be Mike Parker. That's just one story line from another fantastic weekend of college football, which includes Steve Wujek ready to ring the Victory Bell for Mizzou, Malzahn's return to Fayetteville where the Hogs must win to prevent going 0-4 in the SEC, Nutt's Rebels attempting an ambush in Oxford, and a mysterious "Off" line for the Ducks, already a pool favorite without this problem.
For $800 and the Ramon Escobar Trophy, which Geoff Hicks plans to use as a paper weight for his vast collection of foreign currency, some of which was mysteriously dropped off at my front door as some kind of bribe (I've always wanted a euro and a rupee but it will take a lot more than one), select your winners and e-mail them back to me by 7 p.m. Thursday.
