Ashway: Falcons fail to pay attention
Why weren't they paying attention? That's the Super Bowl question. Had the Falcons been paying attention, they'd be preparing to meet the Ravens in New Orleans in two weeks. Instead, they're sitting around wondering about what coulda, shoulda, been after losing, 28-24, to the 49ers in the NFC championship game. The Falcons could have taken a moment last week to look critically at their win over the Seahawks; look past the euphoric finish and the ...
Elliott: Looking back fondly on racing days from the past
It is a new year, and while most everyone else's thoughts are on the new year and the resolutions they have made, my thoughts are mostly on Daytona and the start of the race season.

SEC Banter: Georgia, Alabama playing for national championship
You read that headline correctly. Saturday's SEC Championship Game between No. 2 Alabama (11-1, 7-1) and No. 3 Georgia (11-1, 7-1) has been dubbed a "play-in" for the right to face media darling Notre Dame in the BCS national championship.

Alabama's loss to "Johnny Football" and his Texas A&M Aggies leaves the SEC with no undefeated teams and, according to the national experts, the SEC's streak of consecutive national titles will end at six.
SEC Banter: Conference roundup from Alabama to Vandy
It's been a while since we toured the conference from Alabama to Vanderbilt and, with no marquee matchups teed up for Saturday, let's do just that. Here's a rundown of this week's action, SEC Banter style.
SEC Banter: Tigers, Tide a study in contrasts
One of the most anticipated matchups of the season takes place Saturday night as No. 1 Alabama (8-0, 5-0 SEC) rolls into Baton Rouge to take on No. 5 LSU (7-1, 3-1 SEC) in Tiger Stadium.

SEC Banter: Savoring the 'Cocktail Party'
The most meaningful rivalry in the Southeastern Conference's Eastern Division is meaningful again.

SEC Banter: Chronicles of an SEC road trip
Nothing beats an SEC road trip. Pack your weekend duffel bag, put the team flags on the car, hop in and hit the road to your favorite college town in the Southeast. Take in the spirit, pageantry, cuisine and revelry that is SEC football.

SEC Banter: October is right on the money
October, my favorite month. Especially at home here in the South. Sharp blue skies preside over autumn's auburn hues. The comfortable coolness beckons you to don that sweater and break out your old chili or gumbo recipe. The air is crisp and so is the beer. What's not to love about October?
SEC Banter: Reveling in SEC snobbery
No one likes a snob, my mother says. She's right as usual (Ole Miss fans excepted). But if you feel the same way as I do about SEC football, you might very well be an SEC snob.

Panic is a sudden sensation of fear so strong as to prevent reason and logical thinking, replacing it with overwhelming anxiety and frantic agitation. Sound familiar, Arkansas and Auburn fans?
