Or 3, whatever, I'll give 3
Right:
1. Tennessee is overrated-losses of personnel just too much
2. LSU clear #2 SEC
3. AU D will be very good again in spite of losing Adams, Lawson and Ford

Wrong:
1. Ole Miss will be middle of the SEC pack
2. UGA is overrated - they are actually a very good football team
3. AU- Oline probably best in the SEC (nope)

Didn't think the SEC West would be this good. Outside of aTm the west looks solid.

I think people putting Ole Miss as lowest tier had to assume Shea was transferring right? As long as they have him, they can surely be at least mediocre

I was right:
1. Danny Etling is an incredibly efficient passer.
2. A&M is the chokiest choke artists to ever choke.

I was wrong:
1. Florida's defense isn't adept enough to make up for their inept offense

Right:
1) Bama would beat FSU in a boring methodical way
2) Fromm is the real deal with UGA


Wrong:
1) I thought Ole Miss was not nearly as talented as they look to be. They've still got lots of good-looking players.
2) thought Stidham would look more confident in the pocket. He did not.

Edit: looks like I'm going to be right about Georgia Tech upsetting Tennessee as well

2nd Edit: DOH!

I think it's too early to call LSU a clear #2 at this point, to be honest.

I liked what I saw for the most part, but against BYU it's hard to tell.

Honestly, aTm looked very good to me before trying to cruise the rest of the way. I don't think they got worried about the Ucla score to make it 44-17, but when Ucla scored again aTm just fell apart. By then the momentum went all Ucla with aTm playing not to lose. Just my opinion.

Right:
•Alabama would still look like a clear #1 team
•LSU will come out and suprised some people
•Florida would be terrible
•East will suck all together
•Stidham wouldn't be all that he was cracked out to be

Wrong:
•A&M would improve defensively
•Miss St would look flat against an FCS team
•ESPN would stop there Ohio State bias

I'm talking power rankings right now. Other than Bama, who would you rank ahead of them right now based on week 1? UGA was close but I'd still say LSU. USCe looked really good but I think a lot of that is just the pleasant surprise. AU looked good but not as good as LSU, and showed a few chinks in their armor. 1. Bama 2. LSU. 3-6 could be in just about any order

Got it right:

1) SC would win their game with special teams.
2) NC State's offense would be pretty good ... and they were.

Got it wrong:

1) Thought A&M would beat UCLA handedly.
2) Thought Mizzou's defense would be much improved considering who their HC is - the jury might still be out on that one.

The jury is NOT out on that one. Mizzou's D is a botched mutant abortion.
