and really no east team outside of UT last year and Mizzou this year has really been worth a shite either.
As for last year... you mean the Tennessee team we bat and the team that beat Alabama?

Their west opponents outside of AU have been Mississippi State, Arkansas, and Ole Miss. Those are the facts.
Missouri is tougher than any team out of the west, and Tennessee would be considered as tough as the #3 team from the West. Those are facts.

I am a little more impressed with Kirby’s quick build and success at UGA.
Saban had the ESPN hype machine marketing his team before he even got on campus. I really feel ESPN and the Saban hype helped generate buzz and make it easy for him to turn it around.
