After a 4-6 disaster two weeks ago, we bounced back with a record of 7-3 last week. The three losses came because:
**—I thought Michigan’s Lloyd Carr had one great game left in him against Ohio State. Nope. Now he’s retired.
**—I didn’t know that Oklahoma QB Sam Bradford would get hurt and the Sooners would lose a gold-plated opportunity to play for the national championship.
**—I finally thought Clemson was ready to win a big game at home and play for the ACC championship. Boston College and Matty (Ice) Ryan had other plans.
That puts is at 79-41 with two weeks left in the regular season. So in the spirit of Thanksgiving we present another Fearless Friday Forecast:

1. Tennessee at Kentucky: You know it’s been a crazy season because this is the third big national game to be played at Commonwealth Stadium this season. If Tennessee (8-3) wins the Vols go to the SEC championship game. If Kentucky wins, the Wildcats (7-4) break a 22-game losing streak to the Vols, give their seniors a day to remember, and send Georgia to the SEC championship. Tennessee has been good at home, not so good on the road. We like Andre Woodson against that Tennessee secondary. Kentucky 31, Tennessee 24.
