re: First Preseason Top 25 (8 SEC teams ranked)

I get the feeling that alot of people are putting Auburn in the top 25 just because they cant feel comfortable not ranking the defending national champion. Reality is not only will they have 4 to 5 losses but they will be ugly losses. Mullin/Miles/Saban/Spurrier (not to mention picking up FL on the schedule) will all hang as many as they can on AU now that the one trick pony has left town.

Auburn wasn't really a one trick pony

Granted Cam was probably the best player in college football - but their OL and Fairly were pretty exceptional too

I don't think Dyer will carry the team on his own but they will have some playmakers next year... and yes probably finish with 7 or 8 wins IMO
