Obviously Bama didn't play, so no change for me about them. Glad they got the chance to rest and heal a bit before a couple of road trips and into the meat of the schedule.

We're now into the season halfway for most teams and I gotta say, it's been a season I didn't expect from a few teams. I expected Lsu's offense to be better than it is, figured a dropoff from Arky, but not to the extent they are. Miss St is doing better than I thought as is Ole Miss. Florida I thought would be a sleeper. SC, figured them to be good. But they're starting to hit their stride and may be better than I thought they would be. And Au.... well, Au... it's nice to see that they now realize just how right other fans have been.

All that aside though. How do you feel about your team after week 6 now?

We suck on offense, really fricking bad. Other than that we are a pretty solid squad though

Thought we would be 3-2 or 2-3, figured auburn would be a toss up but looks more like a W now, same with Mizzou, miss st stronger than I thought, will be a very tough game, lsu looks more beatable but still will be a very tough game, and bama at bryant denny.....

didn't think johnny would start and hes been above expectations, front 7 have been better than i thought but running game seems to be lacking

It really puzzles me after the way Lsu's offense was early in Les' career there. The playcalling is totally opposite, but the talent is arguably similar.

Florida has exceeded my expecatations. The staff has REALLY been amazing with half time adjustments.

I mean, this has got to be the best 2nd half Florida team I've ever seen.

They are tough, and mean, and they hit you in the mouth. I like it. Still a year away though, IMO from winning anything significant.

Very good (with the caveat that I was just hoping to get bowl eligible this year).

We've gotten a few monkeys off our back. SEC win, road game win, holding a halftime lead, and a come from behind last minute win. These are things that have been eluding us for a while and it's nice to squash them.

Looking forward to a good La Tech game.

Before Mizzou's injuries, I really thought they'd have a better chance of making some noise this year than the Aggies. Outside of prognasticating about Bama, I have been way off a good bit this year. I woulda been money with a bookie the last two yrs, but this yr, I'd be taking out a 2nd mortgage if I bet.

I'm pleasantly surprised. Coming into the season with a new coach, new system, and a RS freshman on top of losing several starters on defense had me not knowing what to expect this season. Sumlin has the Ags playing much tougher and it seems we are getting rid of those second half demons. Still a long way to go, but 2-1 in the SEC is a good start, with the loss coming on a 3 point loss to the 4th ranked team in the nation currently. Long way to go, but the early returns seem promising.

I want the coaching staff to be on the next plane out of Athens. Other than that, ok

My team is ahead of schedule, so I'm thinking lots of gravy this year.

Really love Muschamp, and what he has accomplished with our team. The coaching has been off the charts good.

If Driskel continues to improve, we can go to a really good bowl this year.

Bama will struggle against aTm and will beat LSU by 10. The Iron Bowl will be an absolute bloodbath with Alabama skullfricking Auburn into oblivion and the SECCG will be the real Game of the Century.

Bama- Better than I thought, by only a bit though. Concerned with offensive scheme/play calling. Losing Fowler really hurt.

UF- as expected
UGA- as expected, except surprised about their lack of D.
AU- expected 1-4 and losing record.
LSU- Defense is marginally better than expected, offense is as expected(same ol Miles)
AM- better than expected
MSU- as expected, haven't really played anyone
UT- better than last year, just tough games, about what I expected.
Mizzou- wasn't really sure what to expect, but they look bad.
OM- was unknown with new coach and QB, I think they are alot better than last year.

Not excited. Our O-Line is destroyed by injuries and our Offense is terrible. On top of that we have South Carolina coming up with one of the best D Lines in the land.
