Behind Florida and Alabama.

That is no misprint in having Auburn third. Recruiting ratings didn't drop off during Gene Chizik's tenure. Things like this are why I am so convinced that last year's 3-9 season was a result largely of players quitting on the coach. The talent is there. It just needs to be used properly, and there's a good chance that the new regime will get a pretty good bounce back season this fall.

A few caveats obviously apply. Going by recruiting stars is limited, as some guys' actual play doesn't correlate with their recruiting rankings (though in aggregate, the rankings are pretty good). Depth charts are fluid right now, as players compete and some get injured. True freshmen who didn't enroll early won't show up either.

Anyway, the averages are based on Rivals ratings, and backups are weighted 75% of what starters are.

It isn't an opinion piece, just math based on the opinions of others.

I guess anything less than 11-1 will be a disappointment then right?

I can definitely believe Auburn is a talented squad. However it is their QB play that is going to hold them back a lot this year. Give them a Murray, AJ, etc. type of QB and they'd be a contentder in the West.

Rivals?

Team Speed Kills used Rivals recruiting rankings and developed a simplistic formula for identifying the most talented 2 deep rosters in the SEC. The article discusses the overall breakdown and links to the specific offense and defense breakdown articles.
