With MSU losing Dak, OM being OM and losing a ton, aggie sucking, arky losing BA, looks like West will once again be taken by the Gumps, LSU or the Barners.
In the East, looks like UT, UF, and UGA are back as the perennial powers.

OM won't be going away, have another great 'crootin class coming in this year, so hopefully we'll be contending for the west again soon.

Honestly, I don't see LSU rebounding so soon unless Les changes some things up

It really isn't the "Big 6". It's Alabama and everyone else.

A long, long time. Ole Miss had the talent the last 3 seasons to possibly pull it off. Unless they break the bank again like they did with their recruiting class a few years ago, I don't see Ole Miss being able to do it anytime soon.

South Carolina had their chances with Spurrier. They played for it in 2010 (lost miserably). But their next three teams were actually much better teams but just never could quite win the East. Sadly for them, their chances are over now that Spurrier is gone.

I guess you could say Missouri had two chances. But with everything going on there, that ship has sailed.

That leaves just Texas A&M. They appear to be recruiting the talent to have a shot. But I just don't understand how things never seem to click in College Station. If any program does it in the next decade, it will likely be the Aggies. But I don't see it happening next year.

As long as it's been since the last time a non-Big 6 team took the crown.

It is obvious you do not keep up with recruiting at all. Start today and see if the bank is still full for us. 2016 class will top the 2013 class

As good and dominant as Alabama has been under Saban, he's about to win his 4th SEC Championship in 9 seasons. That's very impressive, but nothing like they enjoyed under Bear Bryant or what Florida enjoyed under Steve Spurrier.

Saban's most impressive attribute is consistency. He's had Alabama in the Top 10 every season since 2008. But its not like Alabama sits on top every single year. They just as often do NOT win the SEC as they do under him.

LSU, Florida, and Auburn have all won National Titles since Saban has been at Alabama. So its hard to say the conference is "Alabama and everyone else." Not quite.

Yes, but next year will mark a decade since the Hogs made it to Atlanta. And Bert is just 17-20 since he arrived in Fayetteville. It could be the Hogs, but I don't see it anytime soon.

It's between Arkansas, aTm and Ole Miss. Pick one bc they all realistically have a shot and about the same chances between them. 33.333333333333% between them.
