The answer to this question depends totally on the OC hire. There are OC's out there that arrange their offense to suit the talent on hand. And there are others...maybe most...where it's their way or the highway.
IF Boom hires the former, UF could surprise.

where goes LSU and maybe Bama next year so goes the SEC's chances IMO
I see Arkansas, Georgia, and UCSe all having really good teams next year. Auburn should be better with a little more exerience. The SEC will be fine.

What do ya'll think Georgia is going to do?
I'd be a little disappointed if we didn't win the East again. UF is in a fragile position right now. UT/UF/VU, not a lot of distinction there in my eyes. Don't know a lot about Mizzou. 2nd game of the year against SC will obviously mean a lot.

Who is returning?
We return 10 of the 11 starters from the D that started in the SECCG. 9 of 11 usual starters. Something like 20 out of 22 on the two-deep.
On offense, we return 7 of 11, 18 of 22.
quote:
Who isn't returning?
May be the better question right now. 3 OL, 2 who have anchored the line for a while. We'll be relying on a lot of young guys. Signed 5 or 6 OL in the last class who all contributed very little or took a RS. We already have Theus in this class and apparently things are looking up with Avery Young. They would play immediately I imagine.
The punter and the kicker. Not even sure what to make of that at this point. Great careers overall. Butler was a little erratic after the Ray Guy Award his SO year, but he was good. The downfall of Walsh is well noted.
More importantly, who's declaring?
Orson Charles? Should be the highest projected
Bacarri Rambo? Don't see why he would, won't be drafted in 1st or 2nd I wouldn't guess. JJ has guaranteed Rambo will be back
Sanders Commings? Really became the shutdown corner for the D this year, he was one of the keys to the D in my opinion. Everybody says he's got the NFL build. I could see him leaving
Jarvis Jones? Stock is as high as it may get right now, but he's guaranteed he's coming back. We'll see.
Cornelius Washington? Who knew? Been reported/speculated from multiple places recently saying he's the most likely to declare.
Kwame Geathers? Just b/c you never know what a Geathers will do.
Looking up?
3rd year QB, every WR back
Loads of ppl back on D
2 #1 ranked RBs in the backfield w/ Marshall and Crowell
First year we'll get to see some real Dream Team impact
Oh shite?
3 guys return on OL w/ starting experience. It'll be one big experiment after that.
What if they all declare?
What if we can't stop Latt again?
Recruiting wise?
We're about to close pretty big. I hope.

Will be interesting to see Driskel with a year under his belt. I think his upside is tremendous. Could use a punishing RB.

Dammit I got really excited about answering this question but menlo beat me to it.
I agree with basically everything he said. Our defense finished #3 this year and we bring back basically everybody, only losing 1 CB (several others stepped in for our DE and did fine so not worried there).
Offense we return a ton but lose some important folks. Orson will likely leave, but Georgia is always solid at TE so not worried there at all. OL will unquestionbaly be the biggest ? of the team. We return 2/3 starters depending on what you call a starter, but will be relying on a lot of youth and will most likely start a true freshman at LT.
The schedule is roughly equivalent to this year's as far as toughness. I will be shocked if we don't win the east again.

He could be the best OT in the country though. Trinton Sturdivant came in with much less accolades in 07 and started at LT as a TF and was a straight up BEAST. Like, one of the best LT's Richt has ever had. I'm not expecting Theus to be all-american, but I expect him to be pretty darn good.

sturdivant is probably the best example of a TF coming in and playing LT. but there are countless other TF who were expected to come right in and be the LT but they never came close to meeting those expectations.

I see you're familiar with the 2011 Auburn Tigers.

Oh no doubt, you're absolutely right. I just think that with Theus' track record and accolades he should far pretty well. Not to mention this year our LT was playing out of position. Glenn is ranked on most big boards as the #1 OG in the country and he was playing tackle for us.
