Tenn will make a tremendous leap, but not to #2 in the east. I say #3 or #4

I tend to agree, but I am not convinced that any team in the East will be very good next year. As such, I am giving the benefit of the doubt to Jones and the Vols. I think he is going to lead them on a resurgence (and his recruiting class lends itself to that line of thinking).

LSU has a great shot at finishing ahead of bama... both replace QBs, and the game is in TS.
our schedule is much tougher next year... we may be the best team in the west road games at k-state, UGA, and bama will be very difficult. Road games at the MS schools won't be cakewalks either.

Looks about right, but I don't know if UT will be strong enough to get #2...maybe another year.

Florida won't be ravaged by injuries, so 6 is crazy.

Georgia @ South Carolina will decide the east next year, IMO.

The West looks about right, but honestly I could see MSU making a big jump. It's hard to pin down how it's going to play out with all the unknown variables for UA, LSU, and A&M.
I expect solid seasons from AU, OM, and MSU - considering they'll have the experience at QB.
In the East, I find it hard to fathom UT finishing 2nd. I think they'll be 4/5, but they're losing a lot on their o-line.
I don't think there has been a harder year to rank 2-6 pre-season.

Appreciate the love, but I don't see it yet even with the huge injection of talent.
IMO:
1. UGA
2a/b. SCAR/Mizz
3a/b. UT/UF
4.VU
5.UK
I only put VU that low because of how much they lose. Every play maker on offense (ACS, J Matthews, & Krause) & the entire secondary.
UK still needs a few more classes
UT/UF are the big unknowns

It's tough to do this before all of the leaving early/staying announcements have been made, but here it goes.
I see Auburn losing 3 SEC games next season. That won't be good enough to win the West.
Bama's schedule gets a little tougher but is still favorable. Bama will have a brand new QB.
LSU's schedule gets a little easier, but Auburn on the road early will be a challenge. LSU too will have inexperience at QB regardless of who wins the starting job.
It's going to be a close race. I think it comes down to the LSU-Bama game. I will give LSU the edge due to it being a home game.

I could see flip-flopping State and OM dependent on whose QB plays better. I think Wallace will have a better year...but Prescott is amazing.
I understand the criticism of the UT pick...it is well taken. It is my attempt at being edgy...
However, I do think they will be better than most believe they will be.
As to UF, that program is circling the drain IMO. I hate it too because I am a Muschamp fan. I just think (and hear) the prevailing attitude is pretty toxic in that program right now though.

Not sure why that sems so unlikely, but okay?
Florida is a mess right now, and UT has put together a nice rebuilding class.

UGA will have a really good team next year, IMO. The upside of having a ton of injuries and a young defense is that all those guys come back.

LSU has no interior defensive line, period. It was a homer pick on my part to put them as high as I did. There is a very reasonable argument that LSU could lose 6 games next year given all they are losing with no playmakers returning at receiver and no interior d-line with a new QB, that frankly was less than impressive physically in the bowl.
There is no way LSU contends for the SEC west next year unless AU sustains many injuries, Bama has a garbage fire for QB play and some people really, really step up a key positions for LSU.
