And the Season Starts With A Bang...Sort Of

If by bang you mean all the excitement and bubbliness that comes with opening a five year old bottle of Andres then yes, it was bang-tastic.

The Wolfpack prove that perhaps the preseason hype wasn't exactly warranted while Stephen Garcia and the "Shamecocks" prove that its a lot harder to orchestrate touchdown drives than it is to drink underage, keycars and fight the Man.

Russell Wilson, suffers from sophomore jinx-itis.

At least that's the unofficial diagnosis. Symptoms include overthrowing wide open targets, underthrowing sure touchdowns and basically being the man-sized equivalent of "is it in yet" for the entire game.

Toney Baker does his best TA McLendon impersonation; coughing up the ball like it had swine flu.

So score one for the SEC, albeit an ugly one. This win is the sort of lay where you don't tell your friends who she is, you just add her quietly to your tally sheet and hope to God that no one asks for her information. Best case scenario people will forget this game ever happened, worst case scenario both teams prove this was a bigger pillow fight than Auburn-Mississippi State circa 2008.

As a buddy said last night mid-game:

"This game shouldn't be on tv"
