Florida favored in SEC Champ Game

And they should be favored.

However, I might caution:

Meyer said on Sunday's teleconference that injured linebacker A.J. Jones would not play on Saturday, with running back Emmanuel Moody questionable and cornerback Janoris Jenkins probable. Saban confirmed that the hip pointer suffered by leading rusher Mark Ingram in the fourth quarter of Friday's 26-21 win over Auburn should not keep him off the field Saturday.

I liked them being favored. That takes some of the pressure off Alabama.

I agree. A poll on Fox Sports shows 58% of people think it will be Texas/Florida in the championship game. I think Alabama will have something to say about this! I like Alabama being the underdogs.
 
wonder if confirmation that Ingram will likely miss the game increases the spread, or if that's already been taken into consideration?

Either way, time for TR and EC to STEP UP and TAKE CHARGE!!!

The article states that Saban confirmed the injury will NOT keep Ingram off the field Saturday.
 
so I read this snippet:

failing to use what is commonly called 'reading comprehension', I foolishly posted that Ingram will not be playing. LOL! Been one of those days, I guess!:biggrin:

Ingram is going to play, per Coach Saban today.

you are both correct, and while that should have been clearly obvious, I just thought I'd throw a wrinkle into the thread. ;)
 
so I read this snippet:

Boy, I was worried when I read your post. I had to re-read what Saban said before I breathed a sigh of relief.

I probably should've done a better job bolding there. ;)

Anyway, if Moody is out and Jenkins is less than 100%, that can only help us. By the same token, though, I'm not sure that Ingram will be back to full strength either.

Thank goodness we have very capable back-ups!
