Week 3: Alabama at Florida

Both teams will have new quarterbacks and a new set of weapons to use as they face off in The Swamp. It doesn’t kick off conference play as Missouri and Kentucky do that in Week 2, but it sure does bring it in with a bang in the 2020 SEC Championship.

Will Alabama simply reload and run all over Florida or will the Gators have figured it out on defense enough to make this a good matchup?

Honorable Mention: Auburn at Penn State

Auburn makes the trip to Happy Valley and will look to show that they are ready to take on big-time programs and make some noise in the SEC this year. However, Penn State will have something to say about that for sure and with this game being a home game for the Nittany Lions, I don’t see the Tigers leaving with a W.

Week 4: LSU at Mississippi State

Yes, I know that the Bulldogs are not very good and that we honestly have no idea what LSU is going to bring to the field, but this game was an exciting one a season ago as we watched the Tigers fall from their 2019 grace and Mississippi State become the biggest fraud of 2020.

Now, these two face off in Starkville to stay relevant in the SEC West race.

Honorable Mention: Texas A&M vs. Arkansas (AT&T Stadium)

This game may not be an exciting one in the end, but it usually is when it’s at AT&T Stadium. The Aggies have a way of playing down to their competition and Arkansas is no exception.

Will this be another overtime shootout or will the Razorbacks show that they really are the bottom of the barrel as the Ags blow them out? I really don’t think that there is anything in between when it comes to this matchup.
