Seems statistically unlikely for 71% of the schools in the SEC to improve from a W-L standpoint.

Was it down? The conference finished with 7 teams in the AP top 25 and a 7-3 bowl record.

Why would USC be better? They've lost a lot. They went 6-2 in the SEC last year!


quote:

UT - Better

Don't see how they improve. Still no QB. O.line is gone, RB is gone, D.line is gone, 2/3 of the LB's are gone.

quote:

Mizzou - Same

No chance they stay the same. They lost a ton of talent.

quote:

LSU - Better

Don't see how LSU improves. Lose their QB, both DT's, a good portion of their RB's, pretty much all their WR's save Dural.

The SEC was down last year

Compared to when and using what metric? 2010 was down, no doubt, but 2013 was about the same as the previous two seasons with the exception of top 10 teams fro the SEC.

Percentage of conference teams in a given category listed in parenthesis.

2013 - 7 top 25 teams (50%), 4 top 10 teams (29%), 3 top 5 teams (21%)

2012 - 7 top 25 teams (50%), 5 top 10 teams (36%), 2 top 5 teams (14%)

2011 - 5 top 25 teams (42%), 4 top 10 teams (33%), 3 top 5 teams (25%)

2010 - 6 top 25 teams (50%), 3 top 10 teams (25%), 1 top 5 team (8%)

2013 had the lowest percentage of top 10 SEC teams in the previous 3 seasons. However, it had the 2nd highest percentage of top 5 teams and tied for highest percentage of top 25 teams (though, to be fair, half the conference has been in the top 25 most of the time the past several years).

I don't see how they can't be worse. They lose their Heisman winner, best OL and best receiver
