My money is on a Florida resurgence or South Carolina if Spurrier stays and they continue to pump money into the facilities.
- MSU - not a chance. Not enough money and facilities just aren't up to par
- Auburn - not until they get rid of Chizik (which I hope is never). And then it will take several years and Saban to retire to swing things back their way.
- Georgia - will always be good, but not great with Richt. He's just too nice to get kids to consistently improve and compete.
- Tennessee - They have their own recruiting challenges and Dooley is not the guy to get them there.
- TAMU - could be a possibility. Being in the SEC has done wonders for Arkansas and USCe. SEC cred + Texas talent could be a dangerous combination.
- Mizzou - Their highschool stadium and facilities will relegate them to bounce back and forth between mid and lower tier SEC for the rest of their exisitence.
- Ole Miss/Vandy/Kentucky - N/A
- Arkansas - I think they sealed their fate for at least the next 10 years with this Petrino/JLS implosion.

In two years, all of our football facilities will be up to par with the SEC. We won't be tops, but I don't see how you can point to any of our facilities and say, "well that's just not up to SEC standards.
As for my answer, A&M has no excuse if they aren't elite in the coming years.
