Thanks but we're doomed to finish last with the best coach LSU had

While LSU will win 12 with a coach that couldn't win 3 games in 5 years as a head coach




Just saying

i honestly think any team other than ole miss or auburn could win the west so there really isn't a such thing as a dark horse. you can make a legit case for the other 5 teams


in the east i really like kentucky. their QB is legit. they have real talent now too

Hard to call Tennessee a dark horse when literally everyone is picking either them or Georgia to win the East.

Mizzou is much more of a dark horse than Tennessee, which is ridiculous considering they've won the division the past two years

I think a lot of people are selling A&M short. If I had to pick a dark horse, it would be them. But honestly, I think all the SEC West teams could make a good argument why they have a shot this year.

For the East, I guess Mizzou --- although since they have won it twice in a row, they really should not be considered a darkhorse.

I would pick UGA first, Mizzou 2nd. Some people are getting carried away about Dobbs. UT won 4 of their last 5 with him starting. Won by 3 over USC, by 7 over Vandy and lost to Mizzou by 8. Not bad, but not exactly world beater.

#1- by picking the aggies they will now construe that to mean they actually won it. no matter what actually happens ( I will call that reality) they will spin it to be victory (I will call that fantasy or how about delusion).

#2- I agree UT is not going to win the East. my dark horse candidate would be Georgia.

I agree with both . Seems like Auburn and BAMA are the favorites in the west. I would pick Ole Miss as a dark yourself too from the rest of the pack.

In the east UGA and TENNESSEE seem to be the favorites. UF would be the best dark horse because almost everyone expects them to have a ok season .Missouri would be another dark horse but it seems crazy to say that win they won the division the last 2 years.

Wait....you don't expect to stop making the t-shirts, do you? Oh, and we just finished the new signage for Kyle Field, so that's not coming down!
