re: Which SEC teams will be Better, Worse, Same this year?

EAST

Florida - Same to better (I have doubts they can get their Offense patched up to anywhere near SEC level, but if they improve enough they'll be better)

Georgia - Same (they will probably have a better record than last year, but that is because of all of the injuries they sustained last year)

USC - Same

UT - Same to Better (Them getting better rest soley on them getting better QB play)

UK - Same to Better (They will probably get better, but their record may not be any different)

Mizzou - Same

Vandy - Worse (I think they'll slide a bit post-Franklin)

WEST

Alabama - Same (I would be tickled pink with another 11 win season while breaking in a new QB that hasn't been groomed to take over like McElroy and AJ were. I would almost go worse, but I think we can beat a lot of teams on our schedule with mediocre QB play, and I think our defense will be better)

Arkansas - Same to Better (better if the team is really buying into Bielema and he can fix their defense)

LSU - Same to Worse (depending on the QB play)

MSU - Same

OM - Same (I think they have hit their plateau under freeze)

TAMU - Same to worse (I don't see how some new pass rushing freshmen are going to help what was one of the worse defenses in the SEC, and I'll be surpised if a new QB can fill JFF's shoes)

AU - Same (losing Mason will hurt, but I think Marshall will take up the slack)
