    I predict that I will wake up Sunday morning with a really bad hangover.

    DJ doesn't start but plays and plays well enough to win. Tank plays in the Wilson spot and we fall in love with his speed. DJ solidifies his spot as starter after this week, goes on to win some games and we end up 6 or 7 wins. Seeing DJ play is parlayed into some big Oline recruits flipping and Jeremiah Smith transferring to UF. Guy can dream right...

    I would love more than anything to see the above happen. FSU at 0-3 would be wonderful!

    Was up at Helen a number of times for the faux -Octoberfest-, and for me the perceived festive time is more a hope, than iits actual reality.....much like the summer time tubbing is there during the summer months, where you end up doing more walking because of low water levels than a relaxing float. Of course if your intent is to just become inebriated, you'd be better off taking 441 south into downtown Athens and enjoy any number of bars they have there and catching whoever is playing at the 40 watt club this weekend. The Dawgs will be in Kentucky this weekend, so downtown Athens is usually a good visit on those weekends.

    Memphis is no joke and arguably the toughest game to date for FSwho.

    I live 45 minutes from Helen and I have never been there for Octoberfest. I have an old Army buddy coming to town and wants to see it. We all got together back in June for the D-Day run in Toccoa and spent the some time in Helen and they loved it.

    As for Athens, my daughter is coming home from school this weekend so I'll have no one to show me around. Too much red and black for me anyway.

    None of these are bold ... just regular predictions.
    Gators run for over 200 yards vs TA&M.
    Cocks upset LSU.
    Boo birds will be out in full force in Tally and Gainesville.

    I lived in Athens for about 8 years, before moving to Commerce where I lived before returning to Florida once I retired. I was in Athens during the SOS era, so I had it pretty good. Most folks despized Steve during that time frame, more than the Gators. I used to go into Hodgson's Pharmacy on Milliage Ave to get a .50 shake. Always at least have a Gator cap on, so we'd tease back in forth while I waited for my Shake. The place was covered with Dan MaGill sports memorabilia. I dont drink but I always enjoyed the downtown area. If you ever do go you have to go to "The Grill" on East Board, its open 24/7.....(kinda of great place to go for breakfast or a burger before heading home).

    If you've never been to Helen for the Octoberfest, dont blame you for wanting to try it. I'd try to get there early in the morning, as the available parking in town goes fast, otherwise you'll be parking a little ways out of the immediate town area.

    I predict I’m going to be celebrating a big Gator win with my pal Jack Daniels and a Cold bottle of Blue Moon for a chaser.
    Or I’ll be grieving a Gator loss with my pal Jack Daniels and a cold bottle of Blue Moon for a chaser.
