South Carolina


Showed no major weaknesses. Lost a little steam in the second half, but a weather delay and having the game under control make that excusable.

quote:

Alabama


Offense was sluggish, but VT has a pretty good defense, even if their offense isn't very good. Bama needs to get better offensively, but no major red flags here.

quote:

LSU


Questions coming in were losses of personnel on defense and the progress of Mett. Both questions got pretty good answers. Some sloppiness kept the game closer than it should have been. The defense needs to get a little better, and it will.

quote:

Texas A&M


They did fine with a suspect defense last year. The offense still did well. How they'll perform against a real defense, we'll know a week from Saturday.

quote:

Ole Miss


Offense looks good, defense bad. Same as last year, but young talent has a lot of upside. They could improve defensively, but won't be a contender this year.

quote:

Georgia


Went into a hostile environment against a very good offensive team and gave up a lot of points in a close loss. It sucks for them and it puts a lot of pressure on them to beat South Carolina this week, but the sky is not falling in Athens.

quote:

Florida


They looked a little sluggish on offense, but great on defense. This is like any of their last few teams. They still look like a very good team.

If we're going on week one alone, I think LSU can be justified at any ranking between 1 and 3.

Have an upvote though.

BOOOOOOOO they beat UNC by less 17. Bama beat VTech by 25. I don't think UNC is better at all than VTech.

Aslo how is USC better than LSU?

4. Texas A&M

Was the defensive front really that horrific or was it just the missing starters? Is Manziel becoming a distraction and too big for his own shoes or is it just media bashing? Time will tell, but for now a team that had the loftiest of preseason aspirations should certainly be concerned.


When you're running a 3-man front and your starting nose is suspended, it shows. Throughout much of the game, the young players were out of position and in the wrong gap. Alonzo Williams is a decent 3-tech, but he is COMPLETELY out of position at nose. Kirby Ennis was the anchor of the interior last year and it will show on Saturday when he's back. I think much of this will be fixed by Sam Houston and the complete rotation should be fully established by Alabama.

Claiborne, by far the best freshman on the field Saturday, has to grow up quickly, as Donnie Baggs is a decent outside linebacker but is not a quality signal caller in the middle. Since the light hasn't come on for Sanders yet and Askew is a complete waste, we'll have to rely on raw talent at the SAM position.

As far as Manziel, he's just the same as he was last year, only now the pantywaists at ESPN are whining about it.

Today, Dennis Dodd had an article basically calling for him to get critically injured during a game. Many sportswriters are angry at A&M because we refused to "accept our place as little brother" and dared to jump to the SEC without their permission.

USC, Bama, LSU in the top three is fine at this point. Florida and UGA should be ranked ahead of Ole Miss. I can't tell much yet about the teams below Ole Miss but ahead of KY - but yeah KY looks terrible

I’ll make sure to skip next week’s Genro power rankings, because this list is horrible. Ole MIss in front of UGA and Florida?

1. South Carolina

USC appears to be the SEC's most complete team after dominating an average ACC team in every phase, especially in the trenches. With an elite defense, a formidable offensive line, a legendary coach, and skill position stars... South Carolina has formally arrived as an elite SEC team and BCS title contender.

2. Alabama

A potential major weakness was exposed from that young offensive line against an average-at-best ACC team, but they are still the 2-time defending champs and they still have Saban. If anyone can work out the kinks, it's Bama.



I thought y'all said it wasn't going to matter? Still going to be the best offensive line in the country? I thought that Saban always fields the best offensive line in the country?

Coming into the season ranked 13th, projected to finish 4th in the SEC, I'm very satisfied with where we are after week 1. To be in the top 3 of your power ranking is accurate, and possibly interchangeable. I would probably put Georgia above Ole Miss.
