What exactly is different about UGA and Tenn (or Missouri for that matter) that makes everybody pick them 1 and 2?
I think Mizzou fans actually feel not as confident this year either. The losses of Ray, Golden, and Brantley (just for this season) are brutal on defense. On offense they lost their 3 biggest playmakers I believe (Hansborough, Sasser, Murphy) and getting smoked by UGA last year in head to head, along with getting trounced by Bama in the SECCG gives people a bad taste. I don't doubt Pinkel can have them in the race and even win the East, but any team who loses that much quality (outside of maybe Bama) in the league is going to project to be worse the next season.

Hansborough is back as is 4 of 5 starting OL, who on here last year besides Mizzou fans had heard of Sasser???

Legit and true statement
Here is the issues though Mizzou's schedule sets up way and I mean way better then either UGA or UT. Both teams have more talent but experience and coaching are on the side of Mizzou. I say it is a toss up between the three with UT slightly behind. Sorry Vol fans but you have to Show Me you can do it first. Also with the Mizzou decade of hell from the 80's/90's people just refuse to believe in Mizzou. The only way to rid the taint of that era is to win the big one. Mizzou has gotten close but has yet to break through.

I thought or team was shite last year. It was a rebuilding year. Our offense will be better this year if Mauk improves in his second season as a starter. We thought the d line would drop off last year but we just keep reloading, and our lbs and dbs will be crazy good.
Not predicting another east championship, but a better team.
