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

What makes LSU have less question marks than Bama? LSU returns their oline, but loses most of their offensive skill power. Both teams are replacing quarterbacks, and neither quarterback replacement seems ideal right now. LSU has less question marks in their secondary than Bama, but more question marks on their D-line.

This thread is about that Bama shouldn't be getting so much love after last year and who they have to replace and you think these 3 are the most likely to win it?

LSU's is replacing their entire Offense (minus OL) and still lost 3 game with them.

UGA went 8-5 and lost the player that made the most plays for them.

UF hasn't proven they can do anything under WM and lost some key players on Defense.

If that is indeed the match up, congrats LSU on the SEC title.
