Picks Column: Alabama

There’s a lot at stake this week in the alligatorSports Brand Picks Column this week, as the pickers are doing their final jockeying for the crown and trying to avoid embarrassment. Only two — Bobby Callovi and Kyle Maistri — are still actually picking for glory.

Field goal sinks rivalry to new low

Florida State kicker Dustin Hopkins trotted onto Florida Field to attempt a 20-yard field goal with the Seminoles down 30-0 at the end of the third quarter and gave the 90,000-plus onlookers a startling wakeup call.

Picks Column: FSU

After last week’s great matchups, I can only hope rivalry week will give us some thrilling games like Florida’s last-second 62-3 victory over FIU, Alabama’s narrow 45-0 escape of Chattanooga or Texas’ 51-20 tough win over Kansas. This week’s slate has games with great history such as Alabama-Auburn, Florida-Florida State, Clemson-South Carolina and UCLA-USC.
