Crazy thing is, no one would be shocked.

3rd best record? Probably no falling out of chairs. If we are actually the 3rd best team (and the SEC isn't a shitstorm), chairs all over the Southeast and country at large would suddenly be empty.

I'm not being negative, just think we're still building. We do have some nice pieces, but there are some holes to fill. 3 of them are likely to be draft-sized holes. The receiving corps could be really good though. We will likely (unless someone just jumps out) lack a true #1 target, but we might just overwhelm with number of different targets. Our lines look stout, even if they're not jam-packed with All-SEC talent. QB is a question, but not one anyone expects to end with a bad answer. We'll be breaking in an a secondary of first-time starters, but they all played significant and positive minutes in big games last year. HB will be a strength with 2 JRs of different strengths.

Sadly they lose too much on defense to be a top team. They're replacing 8 starters I believe

Everybody's gotta have a dark horse, I guess. Thanks for picking us

We do lose a lot on D, but with Mason coming in and having a lot of confidence in the guys stepping up (the secondary is the most concerning, but I already covered that), I think this defense will be even better than last years.

And a solid defense will keep y'all in a lot of games that maybe y'all shouldn't be in

Don't start this crap. You might actually build my hopes up. You're an awful person. Let me be a slightly pessimistic realist here.

speak for yourself

I could see third in the east if things broke right but even that would be something of an accomplishment given UGA, USC, and MU have pretty fair expectations and Florida views last year as an aberration

The UT fan insult of choice is Candy, just so you know. You're new stance is certainly much more of what we're used to

ETA: Wait, isn't every fan base supposed to be at each other's throat and never exchange friendly banter? We better stop breaking the rules, so...

Well if OM has so much potential off of one great recruiting class I'll say LSU has a very good shot as any

Maybe Florida can make some noise.





Have to stay healthy, though. I do expect them to rebound and I think Roper will do some good for Driskel as well. The D will be fine (have a terrific CB in VHIII) and I think Kelvin Taylor will be a very solid RB next year.
