One of Bama's biggest problems last season was offense play calling. Ray Charles could have told you what kind of play was coming 75% of the time because of how predictable it was.

The failed 4th down conversion in the 5th quarter of the Iron Bowl was a perfect example.

I think even Ray Charels would have called a FG from the 11 yard line there.

Where as I do not think, Bama wins the title this year, the conference, the west or makes the playoff. I do think their reputation and their coach has earned the right to be considered a favorite this year.

Last year the luck broke bad for them late, where as they got the luck the previous years.

The wreck that was the sugar bowl , was a combination of things, all of it bad, even though I do think OU was hot that night, and it could be the catalyst for this year.

I really just do not think the playoff is going to be the greatest thing for the SEC, it may be monetarily , especially getting multiple teams in the 4 at large games each year. The SEC just has a tendency to have teams lose late, and whether or not they want to admit it or not, the committee is going to have a hard time leaving out conf champs, and I think it may take time for a conf to get 2 in the playoffs.

as a note I have LSU vs UGA/UF winner for the SECCG
