Based on the preseason Coaches' Poll, here's a brief synopsis of the SEC's five highest-ranked teams, including a personnel-based assessment of which of the 2006-11 champs each team most closely resembles.
• No. 1 LSU: The Tigers boast at least three likely high-round draft picks on the defensive line (end Sam Montgomery, end Barkevious Mingo and tackle Bennie Logan) and a talent-filled secondary, even after star Tyrann Mathieu's dismissal. With four returning starters on the offensive line, LSU should exceed last year's 202.6 yards per game on the ground. The hope in Baton Rouge is that new quarterback Zach Mettenberger can drastically upgrade his position and produce more big plays. Most similar to: 2007 LSU.
Story Highlights
Part I of our case study: Establishing the blueprint for the past six BCS champions
Part II: Breaking down the most likely 2012 contenders to emerge from the SEC
Part III: Examining five teams from other leagues that could end the win streak
2 Bama
6 UGA,
9 USCe
10 Ark
