Let's look at the 2012 and 2013 preseason rankings and determine who "flopped" the hardest.
2012
2. Alabama - Finished #1
3. LSU - Finished #14
6. Georgia - Finished #5
9. South Carolina - Finished #8
10. Arkansas -
23. Florida - Finished #9
UR. Texas A&M - Finished #5
UR. Vanderbilt - Finished #23
Biggest Flop = Arkansas
2013
1. Alabama - Finished #7
5. Georgia - UNRANKED
6. South Carolina - Finished #4
7. Texas A&M - Finished #18
10. Florida - UNRANKED
12. LSU - Finished #14
UR. Auburn - Finished #2
UR. Missouri - Finished #5
UR. Vanderbilt - Finished #24
Biggest Flop = Florida (Georgia still made a bowl)
If you do an objective look at the rankings (including A&M and Missouri), at least one team in the Top 10 has fallen apart each of the last six seasons.
2013 - Florida (10) and Georgia (5)
2012 - Arkansas (10)
2011 - Texas A&M (8)
2010 - Florida (4)
2009 - Ole Miss (8)
2008 - LSU (7)
In each case, it's a team that has hidden depth issues or coaching strife.
The only teams that applies to are:
Alabama - QB, OL
Auburn - DL
South Carolina - QB, DL, DB
If form holds, it will be a team in the top ten, not the top 25.

So you went with that, but ignored that A&M lost it's 4 biggest weapons on offense. That seems like some pretty big shoes to fill to me. Especially for a team that went 9-4

The last 6 years of data predict it will be a team in the top 10.
