Alabama, Texas A&M and Tennessee once again led the way among SEC teams in the latest bowl projections, even in light of the Vols’ 49-10 loss to the Crimson Tide.
After those three teams, however, the conference’s bowl season picture remains very much unsettled.
Five different teams — Tennessee, Arkansas, Florida, LSU and Ole Miss — are projected to represent the SEC in the Citrus Bowl. LSU has been tabbed to play in four different bowl games, with one set of projections (CBS) going so far as to leave the Tigers out of a bowl entirely. And the experts are nearly split on whether Kentucky and/or Missouri can cobble together enough wins for a bowl bid in the coming weeks.
SEC Country has compiled expert predictions made by multiple media outlets, including ESPN (Mark Schlabach and Brett McMurphy), CBS Sports, SB Nation, 247Sports and our own set of projections.

Don't want to play Wisconsin and a potential loss to UNC would be embarrassing.

NM, that's probably Jerry Palm and he's mildly retarded.

VOLS vs Louisville in the Orange Bowl has me in a froth

I wouldn't mind the texas bowl if it meant a matchup with Oklahoma State and/or TCU since a bowl game is our best chance to see those teams because we all know JJ won't schedule anyone else as long as Clemson has openings every year
the taxslayer against Miami (FL) or belk against UNC would be nice too

Mark Richt...I thought we tricked the puppies into getting rid of him so we wouldn't have to play him anymore.

I hope it happens.
Assuming he sees Western Carolina, UMass, and Mizzou as wins (not unreasonable), to make a bowl you'll have to also beat Clemson, Florida, or Tennessee.
No matter which of the three you beat, the melt will be epic. If it is Florida or Tennessee, there may even be some quality pron bombs involved.
