I take that back - we know that Arkansas is horrible. Otherwise:
1. Bama has some sexy wins, until those ladies take their make-up off. While wins against Ole Miss, Arkansas, and Michigan sound generally impressive, there's not alot to see there.
2. "Who" Florida beat in College Station isn't as impressive as "how" they beat them. Road wins against quality teams in the SEC are always cherished, but I still don't think we know alot about the Gators.
3. Until this past Saturday, about half the news media was hanging all over Georgia's jock. Tennessee's offense fully exposed them. Nothing too special about that team apparently.
4. LSU's got a really nice win over Washington, and an extremely rare road win in the Plains - albeit unimpressive against an undermanned Auburn team. No one's scared of us right now.
5. Mississippi State has quietly handled their business as well. They handled Auburn much more easily than LSU, even if it was in Starkpatch.
6. After a season kickoff scare at the hands of the mighty Vanderbuilt Commodores, South Carolina is as undefeated and untested as the rest of us.
It's almost as if the league knew in advance that Arkansas would suck, and didn't schedule a meaningful game until October. Seriously, I've got no clue if LSU is the best team in the SEC, or the 6th best.

I think Alabama's offensive line is a little over-rated

Washington is not an impressive win. The PAC-12 and especially USC and Stanford are overrated. Michigan's only loses are to us and Notre Dame which are both respectable loses. They could still win the Big Ten

The entire SEC is a bit over-hyped this season. Then again, every team has fatal weaknesses. I'd say that the SEC East might actually be tougher top to bottom this year than the West. If Florida can knock off LSU this Saturday, that'll be fact.

I think it's become known to us all that MSU is the team to beat in the SEC West.

I still think LSU beats us by at least 10. They're so much better than they've played the past 2 games...

We gift wrapped UT +21. Our Defense made plays when the game was on the line.
"Gurshall" One name, two men. Get used to it because they will be running all through your secondary someday.
I'm confident UGA would whip your tail this year.

Not surprisingly considering scheduling. UGA usually plays SC like the 2nd game of the season. This season we don't meet until week 6. UT looks improved but have lost 2 tough games so far. Florida has 2 impressive road wins including the one in Knoxville so they probably should be considered the team to be in the East.
We will know a lot more after this weekend. If Florida and SC both win at home, then it sets up the SC/Florida game as the possible East champ and the Bama/MSU game becomes huge in the West. If Florida and SC both lose at home then it make UGA the team to beat in the East and sets up and Bama/LSU rematch in the West.
