In light of the "most improved" thread...which SEC team has the most to lose?
Florida because of all of the NC talk?
Ole Miss because of all of the SEC/BCS talk?
Alabama, LSU, Auburn, UT, MSU?
Out of all of the SEC teams, every team has some type of expectation...Which fan base will "meltdown" if expectations are not met?

Florida is the only answer.

Florida fans will be pissed, no doubt. But they are going to get everyone's best shot. So, if they go through their schedule unscathed, then they get my vote for one of the best teams of all time.

Florida and Ole Miss because of the ridiculous expectations from both schools.
I also think that if Tennessee and Auburn fail to have winning seasons, their fan bases will begin to turn on the coaches - particularly Auburn, because Chizik was not a popular hire to begin with.

Bama. If they have a "mediocre" season (say 8/9 wins) you'll start hearing "talk" about Saban, imo.

i think for florida because of the arrest and the potential championship they might have this year

I say LSU then Bama.
If LSU has a poor season, the Miles critics with have a legit gripe imo. Way too much talent to have back/back poor seasons.
Bama second because expectations will be extremely high (even though some may act like they are not). If Bama has an 8-5 type season and loses to AU, AU gains a lot of momentum back and Saban's record at Bama will be 1-2 against AU and not very impressive in general.
Not UF. 2 NC's in 3 years buys you an occasional bad season no matter how loaded you are. Sometimes injuries pile up and you get some unlucky breaks that can turn 2-3 of those close SEC games into losses from wins.

If LSU has another season like last years, Miles will be the one with the most to lose! Like millions of dollars.
Not to mention but the general preception that our program was already on the skids but just hidden because of the talent Saban stockpiled, will become more widespread.
