It's very possible that not only UGA but UF or Mizzery can win the East.

James Franklin took the anchor with him to Penn. St.
Which is why Vandy couldn't "anchor down."

A&M has some play makers and is full of confidence from playing a very bad USCe team.

Don't discount the A&M O Line. They are arguably the best of the SEC. In turn, maybe SC defense is more potent.

Myles Garret. Simply put, he's going to be a big, big problem for teams. SC O Line was arguably one of the best of the SEC.

You cannot forget about the A&M RB corps. They will be forgotten in public thought, but that's a 3 headed monster.

SC needs a QB. Thompson isn't the answer.

Byrd is ridiculously fast. Holy hell he's faster than greased lightning.

Davis is hurt more than anyone had suspected. I thought he was going to show no effects of his injury but I was clearly wrong.

A&M with an AVERAGE defense may be shockingly good.


I'm stunned, really. What a way to start a season.

The Head Ball Coach has jumped the shark. Some real WTF decisions on his part in this game.

Most surprising to me was how puny SC's defensive line looked. Lining up against the A&M o-line, they looked like high schoolers.

I learned my preconceived notions are completely unfounded.

I thought UGA would score late on Clemson to go up 10.

Now, Im expecting Clemson to punish us between the Hedges. :\

If I'm an offensive recruit, I'm looking at A&M. Their offensive line was fantastic, their skill positions are great, and Sumlin is a master at developing QBs.

Henderson and Garrett should provide a strong foundation on he D-line for the next 3+ years.

USC needs to get out of the 3-4. That was the worst defense I have ever seen a Spurrier coached team play. No pressure on the quarterback, covered people like UGA did last year, and missed at least 20 tackles last night.

Dylan Thompson throws a pretty deep ball, but struggles on the shorter passes. Doesn't have a lot of zip on the ball and wasn't stepping into some of his shorter throws.

Boise St. = Trash

Ole Miss has a really good defense and a really bad offense. That was one of the sloppiest and most undisciplined games I've seen in a while. I know it's the first game of the season, but 10 false starts with no crowd noise isn't good for the Ole Miss team. The OL is terrible, will allow DLs to put pressure on Wallace, and he will make bad decisions.

The Ole Miss WRs are very solid. Treadwill can eat small corners up all day long.

Vandy is back to being Vandy. If you have to play 3 quarterbacks in your game things are not going to go well for you.

Looked to me like ATM controlled both sides of the line of scrimmage. Do that and you win most of the time. SC's offense never got in a rythm and ATM fricked with the carolina QB's head most of the game.

The SECW just got wilder if the Aggies are legit and Carolina isnt shite.
