He had 24 TDs (6 rushing) and 10 picks. So no.

switch Coker and Allen (TAMU), put Harris at 10 and move Worley and Allen (Arky) back a spot, and you have a pretty on point list. I mean this is preseason. After the first 5 games, things can really be assessed.

Not really.

A Sumlin QB will get 3000 passing regardless and he has a great group of receivers.
Mason will get 3000 with the shite load of talent he has to throw to.
Mauk will be at 3000 because of the wide open spread offense. Wallace will be over 3000 yet again.
Marshall is going to be between 3500 and 4000 total yards.
Dak, if healthy, will have 3500+ total yards.
Thompson has a loaded receiver core and has the arm to go down the field, so expect anything from 2800-3300.

People need to just realize that it is a new age of football. Remember when it was an amazing accomplishment to pass for 5000 yards in the NFL? Now you have 1-2 a year do it. These gaudy pass happy offenses are catching up and finally reaching the SEC. The HUNH and spread is here to stay in the SEC, so you better get use to gaudy pass numbers on a yearly basis. Also with even more regulations put on the defense to protect QBs and WRs, don't expect the passing to go down at all.

Even if he rushes for 3000 yards.....he still won't pass enough to put him at the 3500 mark

So they ranked a 3000 yard passer 9th in the league. How is the list not shite using that criteria?

Yea, I was sitting in thw stands last year vs Tennessee and we didn't even play hard in the second half and won by 30.

Nick Marshal #1 is a joke, he can't throw worth a shyt.

ESPN was showing draft picks today and showed Cam Robinson giving up a sack on 3rd down vs Georgia on the last drive, then they show the 4rth down lucky play and are holering Hold him, Hold him, as Cam grabs Georgia's end around the neck, lmao.

Their #1 QB is a future backup safety in the NFL. Strange.

14. Stephen Rivers, Vanderbilt (JR)


Lol no. Unless he is a lot better than anyone realizes, he will be 3rd on the depth chart. McCrary will likely be the starter, and he could have a really good year if he can get on the same page as the WRs. I think Patton will keep #2 while pushing Johnny. If Rivers really is the #14 QB in the SEC, no way he starts over those 2. Patton wasn't the worst QB in the SEC last year.

I think this post is a decent amateur opinion.
It honestly is very hard to rank them right now though.
The past two heisman's have been fresh fish.
Based on experience, I agree.
But, nobody effin knows and it'll be an awesome season TO WATCH in the SEC this fall.

The article should be titled "Look- We Have No Earthly Idea, Either" followed by five blank pages.

Well, dang, I know that. If you're going to rank things, a little respect would be nice. You don't have to care, just give proper respect. And trust me, I'm well aware that the rest of the SEC couldn't care less of the SEC.

Not sure. It's not like we have obnoxious a-hole fans to piss people off. We haven't really done anything to stick a wrench in people's lives. I think traditional powers just don't want us to stop being a doormat.

Yea, I was reading an article about Cam running with the first team and put his name down.

You knew who I was speaking about so, it is really irrelevant.
