No one.

NIL and Portal.

I find it hard to love college football anymore.

Can't think of the name of one player on our team. Why bother? Just learn numbers. Names go somewhere else every year.

It’s Texas and they have the best quarterback in the sec and potentially the #1 pick so I don’t know what you are saying sir.

I thought it was a given that Texas was pretty season paper champs every year?

Go to go with the generational talent, Heisman winner, and number one draft choice team.

Indiana is not in the SEC - or at least this week they aren't. Hard to know what next week brings.

It's hard to tell. I'd say

Texas
Georgia
LSU
Alabama
A$M

Ole Miss and OU have better rosters than people think as well.

Probably Georgia. Why? Generally, it's a tossup between them and Texas most preseasons for who's got the best talent, and Georgia's been winning those games head-to-head.

I find it hard to argue Georgia as being better than Texas on paper if you sit down and go position by position to be frank.

When you watch them the last couple of seasons it's clear they don't have the talent advantage they did in 21 and 22. They lost several guys on that team who were very productive and or leaders (Miller, Feeling, and Allen were all very good players) and it's not as obvious as it used to be that someone will step up and fill those voids without a beat being missed.

The difference the past few years with Georgia has been that they have better coaching than teams like Texas IMO. I know Georgia fans are hit or miss on their opinions of their coordinators, but Kirby has that team prepared and they make killer adjustments at half.

Kirby might be better at beating teams with equal or more talent than Saban was.

Momentum has nothing to do with roster depth and talent
Unless a big win or loss causes players to move.

I do think UGA has a big hole at QB, but the rest of their roster is stocked.

LSU, I'm legit worried about O Line, and not impressed with WR. Which is a weird feeling to have as a Tiger fan, that had always been taken for granted until recently. Our QBs look deep, RB looks good, secondary looks good. Hope Kiffin's system addresses the offensive weaknesses.
