Just a good read I found thought I would share.

LINK

And a quick quote for those of you too lazy to click the link.

EDIT: Some more quotes for those to azy to click.

quote:

On South Carolina running back Marcus Lattimore, returning from a serious knee injury: "Running backs always say they are a 100 percent but you don't know until they get back into contact. I pray that he is 100 percent because he is an NFL back. Will he run as hard and as fearless as he did before? Will outside influences get into Lattimore's head?"

• On Auburn, switching from the spread offense to a power running game under new OC Scott Loeffler: "Auburn continues the trend of teams realizing that if they are going to recruit the elite athlete, they must show they can get them ready for the pros. You can't depend on having a Cam Newton every year. To play that way, you have to be willing to punt a few times and trust your defense. You have to make sure your quarterback doesn't beat you. It's a totally different mindset."

• On Florida and Tennessee: "They are my wild cards. I love those two teams. This Tennessee-Florida game [on Sept. 15] might be the best one in the seven years I've done this because it is going to be a high-stakes game for both teams. There are some tremendously gifted players on offense for Tennessee. If [QB] Tyler Bray is who I think he is, he'll have a great year. Tennessee is loaded at wide receiver and has some veterans on the offensive line. This is a highly motivated football team.

"Florida also needs this game badly. This is the second year under [Will] Muschamp, who is also changing the playing personality of that team. Their defense is really loaded and now the kids at Florida have a better understanding of what Muschamp wants to do."




quote:


1. A lot of people are underestimating the impact that the loss of Tyrann Mathieu will have on LSU.

2. The biggest difference between the Alabama of last year and this year is not the seven new defensive starters. It's the schedule.

3. People are really downgrading the importance of Bobby Petrino at Arkansas.

4. The new guys are going to be surprised by the intensity of this league.

5. Georgia's Aaron Murray is a bigger key to his team's success than any other quarterback in the SEC.

JMO but...

Of course the D would be better with Tyrann but what is must underestimated is the possibility of LSU with a real QB and it's effect on the O.

It'll probably be both but fair enough.

quote:

I don't think A&M will. Mizzou is another story though.

Bigger than Wilson to Hogs? I couldn't disagree more.

I remember the thread but never clicked on it. So I missed something good?

Thread is not whacked. LINK

I have these cliffs saved :
Here's what you do.

1. Go to my post on page 1 where I copied the OP's bleacher report profile
2. Read his insane response. I have no fricking clue who or what he is talking about
3. Skip to page 3, where I found his youtube channel and posted links
4. Read EVERYTHING from then on. You will see it all unfold. You will not regret it.

Dead on right there.

I have UF losing @ A&M the week before, so if UF loses this, they're pretty much already out of the SEC East race (unless UGA and USCe just flat out underachieve).
