With College GameDay in Oxford for the LSU Tigers–Ole Miss Rebels showdown, SEC Nation found itself on The Plains for what should be an intense matchup between the Florida Gators and Auburn Tigers. However, the panel couldn’t pass up an opportunity to pick the winner of Saturday’s top-10 clash.
SEC Nation host Matt Barrie had Tim Tebow open the selections. The former Gator signal-caller is a big fan of Trinidad Chambliss. Alas, he doesn’t see Chambliss leading the Rebels to a win.
“I love Trinidad Chambliss… he’s the best in the country right now,” Tebow declared. “But I think LSU has too many dudes… LSU wins a close one.”
Chase Daniel followed Tebow, providing a recap of Sam Leavitt’s start to the season before choosing the Rebels.
“We broke down the inconsistencies of Sam Leavitt’s play [and] that offensive line of LSU gave up five sacks vs. Louisiana Tech,” Daniel said. “I think Ole Miss’ defensive line [is] a little bit better than Louisiana Tech’s… I’m on the Trinidad Chambliss train… Hotty Todday, Ole Miss all the way.”
Roman Harper and Paul Finebaum quickly pounced on LSU after Daniel’s analysis, leaving the former Mizzou passer as the lone Ole Miss supporter. The Rebels will try to make Daniels the only correct member of SEC Nation’s cast by beating the Tigers at 7:30 p.m. E.T. tonight (ABC).
