Returning production ranks for the current SEC schools...

7. Texas A&M- 80% overall, 82% offense, 77% defense
This would be my dark horse pick to win the conference.
9. Mizzou- 78% overall, 77% offense, 80% defense
I would think Mizzou fans expect improvement this year, especially with the new contract for Eli. But the seat could get hot quick if he doesn't get it going. He seems to flirt with disaster and pull it together just in time to avoid it. Are the stakes raised now so that avoiding it is harder?
28. Auburn- 71% overall, 72% offense, 71% defense
Not sure that any conclusions can be drawn with this complete staff turnover and philosophy change and what has been brought in from the portal.
30. Ole Miss- 71% overall, 80% offense, 62% defense
Could mean Ole Miss' offense returns to what it was a couple of years ago.
32. LSU- 71% overall, 81% offense, 60% defense
I probably have been too low on Kelly's chances just based on how coaches who do well in their first year often regress in their second year. Things are setting up nicely. I will say that LSU could be markedly better than 2022 and still not repeat in the West.
58. Vandy- 65% overall, 73% offense, 56% defense
Can they build on the upsets from last season?
69. Tennessee- 63% overall, 57% offense, 69% defense
Maybe a good thing to have almost 70 percent production back on D given their problems there last year. Still a little worrisome on offense without your QB and two best WRs when that was your calling card.
73. Kentucky- 63% overall, 71% offense, 55% defense Not sure how much change there is in the offense that the old (and now new again) OC runs compared to his predecessor. How familiar are these returners gonna be with it? How well do the upperclassmen remember it from before? The current OC worked well with a transfer QB in 2021, so that's a positive.
80. Georgia- 61% overall, 52% offense, 70% defense
The defense should be closer to 2021 level than last years by the numbers. But Carter was even more important than his numbers would suggest.
91. Miss. St.- 57% overall, 71% offense, 43% defense
Does the 71% really matter with the massive change on offense that is to come?
102. S. Carolina- 55% overall, 63% offense, 48% defense
I get that Beamer has things rolling and finished strong, but man that's a lot of production lost on a roster that's not deep.
106. Arkansas- 54% overall, 58% offense, 51% defense
May be hard for Pittboss to keep that trust going. Having KJ back is a big plus though.
107. Florida- 54% overall, 55% offense, 53% defense
At this point, maybe it's better this way. You still can say it's a long process for Billy and keep the coach in good graces with the fans and maybe new faces can be better than the old ones, so no excuses would be needed.
125. Alabama- 40% overall, 43% offense, 38% defense
Obviously, these numbers are not the same concern at all schools. They will be changing coordinators as well. Is it the optimal situation? No. Does this mean they will take a step back? Maybe, but it won't be a huge one if that's the way it turns out. It's still far more likely that they are still thinking playoff in November than not.
For our soon to be brethren of the "It just means more" conference.
Texas ranked 19th, returning 74% of their production
Oklahoma ranked 77th, returning 62%.
This would be my dark horse pick to win the conference.

Sir, this is baseball season.

It’s hard to go against Saban picking the West.

It's the offseason. These stats were put out by the WWL in sports in the offseason. Yes even while baseball was going on.
Believe it or not, on that channel right now, when they have their talking head programs and not actual sports play, they are talking more college football than baseball. And guess what? The rest of the sports networks, pods, sports radio jockeys are as well. It is reality, sir

QB and WR are not a concern. There is plenty of production and potential in the very offensive friendly environment. The returning D production is going to be interesting.
The WR 2 deep is set with Bru at X and Nimrod backing him up(6’3 215 RSFR), Ramel Keyton at the 2 and Keleb Webb backing him up (6’3 205 RSFR), and Squirrel White at the Slot with Donte Thornton (6’5 205 track guy transferred from Oregon JR)
Defensively they lost the heart of the D in Jeremy Banks. As a football player he was all you could ask for, as a person he got in his own way a lot. But he will likely make the Tampa Bay Bucs roster. RSJR Aaron Beasley steps into that leadership role. He has 20 starts in 2 years and can be the guy. BYU transfer Keenan Pili comes in to bolster the LB corp. the secondary is still a huge question mark for me. I’m still wanting to see a couple of new faces or atleast faces in different places before game 3.

Fair and well said.
Our D should be salty and give the O their opportunities. This team will go as far as the O, period. Will Drink's new OC Moore finally produce the points and wins???
I'm predicting 6-6. I want to see 8 wins+. I hope 6 wins gets Six-witz fired with 7 the damn borderline. I say fire Drink even with 7 wins. But I don't write a big enough check to be heard.

This is probably a good thing. Only time will tell though.

While I agree, no doubt you would spin it the exact opposite way if it were uga.

If UGA had decent O friendly coaches, a history of producing WR and QBs, had the Vols WR and QB rooms sure. But reality is that’s not the case. UGA hasn’t had a productive WR in years, and hasn’t had a good QB in a decade.

Baseball is a little 2 sport. Also, this forum is for SEC Football. More Sports board is what you're looking for.

When's the last time UT had a Heisman finalist at QB?

Your idea that uga has not had a good offense in a decade is insane. Back to back would have been impossible with that smokeyone level offense.

Based off today’s performance, I would say it is only baseball season for Florida.

You remain in the past with your antiquated and arbitrary standards. You love to see your vols pad stats against weak teams, and think that makes them better

Right? All Georgia did was average 40+ points per game and 500+ yards per game last year.
Is that not good anymore?

Heupel has a history of producing NFL QBs and WRs?
