October 8: There was no Freak of the Week due to SEC Nation not being at a specific location because of Hurricane Matthew moving SEC Nation to their Charlotte studios. The Freak of the Week would have been someone from Florida or LSU. October 29: There was no Freak of the Week due to the game being at a neutral site with no exact team location. Instead, in the spirit of Halloween, Tebow and Spears "created" their own scariest player based on how good different players were from the SEC.
