Y'all hang on to this while you can. The consensus has been, here and from the SEC network and other talking heads, that Auburn is probably going to be better, but probably lose a couple because they won't have the luck. Let's take a look at Auburn's miracles last year.
1. Mississippi State: Very early in the season with new QB who didn't have the benefit of a Spring...brand new offense, brand new defense. That's why that game was close. I actually think State will be better this year but not to the extent that they would need to keep it close with Auburn.
2. Georgia: Auburn owned UGA until Aaron Murray went straight beast mode in the 2nd half. He did what a senior, excellent SEC quarterback can do...put the team on his shoulders and punished Auburn for stacking the line against Gurley. Sorry but Auburn will be better, no Murray, should not come down to a miracle.
3. Bama: Why was that game close? A miracle? No. Between talent and coaching, the teams were pretty evenly matched. It wasn't a series of trick plays or perfectly timed on sides kicks..the teams were very evenly matched. The consensus on this has been that without kick six, Auburn probably would have won in OT. So tell me again how Bama is the clear cut favorite with a new QB, and questionable OL and secondary?

Who knows what's going to happen..Florida could be this year's Auburn and make the rest of us irrelevant...but based on what we know, I think Auburn has a very good chance to repeat as SEC champs.

Bama. Bama fans are so delusional. I placed a bet with a friend who is a Bama fan following the 2012 season, that Bama wouldn't win the national championship in the next 5 years. I couldn't believe his reaction as he thought this was a can't lose bet and he predicted they would win at least three. Just ridiculous and this is the mentality of most Bama fans. Didn't happen last year and won't happen this year. You guys had an unbelievable run of it, but I think it's over.

The success or failure of each school will depend on QB play. Sims/Coker & Marshall have to play well enough to keep teams off balance so that the strengths of both teams which is running the ball shines. Both teams will will win 10 games, winner of Iron Bowl goes to the playoffs.
