Who do you have winning the East?

Seems we always discuss the West, but the East is just as or maybe more wide open.
Florida has the talent, but I don't want to put too much stock into their new offense yet.
USC should be a really good team, but I just cant see them in Atlanta.
Mizzou will be solid on offense, but losing StopKony2012, and The Rainbow Warrior on that d line is going to hurt.
My pick is Georgia. Even if Mason doesn't live up to the hype some UGA fans are giving him, they can rely on a nasty defense and one of the deepest RB groups in the country to win games.

I wouldn't call UGA's defense nasty.

South Carolina! Some people might pick Georgia, but I expect their secondary to be absolute garbage.

It will be close between Mizzou South Carolina and UGA again. I'll go with South Carolina

Missouri or USC are the two favorites IMO.
Georgia and Florida with both be competing for it.
Tennessee is a wildcard.

The East is wide open, but I wouldn't say Georgia has a nasty defense a lot is needed to be proven in that category. I would say their rushing attack is nasty, and a solid rushing attack will keep you in games.

UGA wins the East before they play the AU game.

I hesitate throwing this out there, since we have so many question marks and could go 0-8 for all I know, but if Vandy can beat Ole Miss in Nashville in Week 2, I don't think a 6-2 conference record is out of the realm of possibility, and who knows how that would play out. We probably lose at home vs. South Carolina and at Georgia, but I think we have a decent chance vs. everyone else. (No Alabama, no LSU, no Auburn, no A&M.)

USC. Thompson will be fantastic. Best QB in the east this year

I was looking at roster of the east teams this weekend and I got to be honest. I have no clue how this year is gonna turn out.
Georgia and South Carolina look like the favorites but both are pretty weak on defense. S Carolina is gonna get pushed around on D-Line and Georgia secondary has no chance to cover anyone. I think Georgia is bad QB play away from being the team this year that disappoints the most and goes 5-7,6-6.
Kentucky and Vanderbilt just dont have enough talent and experience.
Tennessee has potential on offense but overall we are just way too inexperienced.
Missouri has a few nice pieces but their back 7 is pretty weak and passing game is a ?
IF and I mean IF Roper can work a miracle with that offense, I think Florida can win the east. But there are so many things about that team and program that are trending downward its hard to see them rebounding.
Just by default I'm gonna say S Carolina wins the east but they have 3 losses minimum and get absolutely owned by Bama or Auburn in Atlanta.

Going out on a limb and picking the Vols. If I'm wrong, no one will care enough to give me shite about it. If by chance I end up being right, I can gloat about it.

Mizzou. They have the best QB.

I say, GA. We don't hype Mason, but he is a fith year senior and he can get the job done. Our front seven should be great, but the DB's have to do something. I like our chances given the lack of competition in our division this year, but I expect us to "beat each other up".
