I don't have a major issue with LSU being simply average as long as we have up years along with it. We won't, however, be in contention for the playoffs for quite some time.




If y'all had a QB, damn...

Hard to tell how it will work out. Arkansas could be anywhere from 4th in the SEC to 10th. Lower if we have one of those seasons where the injuries pile up since we are still building depth.

I think Georgia might have the best talent in the SEC, but I thought that last year too. If they can keep their focus all the way through they can win the SEC. That is a big if though.

We shall see how Auburn does with Muschamp stepping in. I don't know that it will make that much of a difference, particularly at first.

Bama will be Bama. The Landmass schools might be in for a letdown. Mizzou is better then people give them credit for.

I'll say that some team most people were sleeping on makes a good run next year, because that seems to happen every year. Other then that who knows?

We never succeed with these lofty expectations. Not drinking the Kool-aid.

Considering UK was picked #14 last year and won 2 SEC games (which I understand is reason for optimism, according to some) I think this is probably progress.


Year three, picked 13th and only ahead of Vandy. Only Kentucky could consider that progress.

Defense should have improved to some degree even if Ellis Johnson had stayed with Carl Lawson coming back and Tray Matthews becoming eligible. Lack of a pass rush and subpar safety play were two of Auburn's biggest problems last year

How do y'all feel about losing Dismukes? Seems like that dude has been around forever. (BTW, I love Johnson at QB I watched him play at Carver and he is a game changer.)

I'm basing it off of two SEC wins in '14 from zero in '13. I mean, two SEC wins is good, right?

Depends on who those teams were. Had Kentucky beaten two good SEC teams, they might be ranked higher than 13th.

Doesn't Georgia play Alabama early in the season?

Mizzou way too low. They'll lose 84-0 at Georgia but still win the East for the third consecutive year. Mizzou still has Pinkel and Georgia still has South Carolina and Florida on their schedule.

Mizzou is @UGA this season. Should be an easy Mizzou win.
