You got smoked by every decent team you played...

BSU - 390 yards, 35 points allowed
USCe - 395 yards, points are confusing in that game hahaha
LSU - great first half - then gave up 207 yards rushing...
MSU - 391 yards and 33 points...

UGa was a good defense last year, but the easy schedule sort of warped those stats a bit.

Change UGA's schedule and put in Florida's schedule, and it'd probably look a bit different.

You and I must have different definitions of the word smoked? Close game with USCe where we gave away 21 points on turnovers. 3OT game with MSU in the bowl with some asinine playcalling on offense and Richt's huge vaginal contraction to settle for a field goal.

I think we had some learning experiences this past season and return a truckload of talent. I'd expect our defense to look better... and the schedule got easier so inserting the 2 ton box of rape that was UF's 2011 schedule wouldn't tell us shite about how we'll do this season either.

My thought is it ends up about
UGA (upside at 12-0... probably 10 or 11 wins though)
USCe (rough schedule... drop 2-3 games?)
Vandy (on the upswing... sneak up on someone. hopefully not us. Franklin starts looking around)
UF (return nice talent on D. Need QB, WRs, and legit RB along with an OL... at least one more season of struggling IMO)
Mizzou (join the SEC while the east is down overall... good fortune)
UT (Dooley gets bounced... team quits halfway through. Alternative, they throw for a billion yards and sneak up on everyone but unlikely)
UK (Phillips joins Dooley on the open market... UK fans rejoice.)
