Without doubt, Lsu/Bama. After that, I'm not real sure tbh. I think I'm gonna throw Missou/Ga out there as a top 5 one though. First SEC game for Mizzou and potential to take the lead as front runner in the East if they can knock Ga down in that early game. After those two, maybe Bama/Arky and Lsu/Arky. SC/Ga could be the 5th one for me. What is the biggest games yall see this year as far as SEC games?

Hard to say but personally I'm looking forward to all 5 of Arky's losses so I'll go with those as my top 5 in no particular order.

LSU BAMA....

That's the game this year

LSU at Arky will be big also

UGA vs, UF will be a good one

South Carolina has some big games too

For me:
1. LSU/AU...good September gauge of west teams
2. Hogs/UA...see above
3. SCar/UGA...likely ATL east invite
4. UA/Mizzou...curious to see how Franklin does against an upper echelon front 7
5. LSU/Hogs...FYMF bowl replaced by 'Eccentric HC's with peculiarities' bowl
============
Edited for accuracy
Of course LSU/UA, even though many don't care.

I thought Bama fans didn't care about this game.

UT/UF should be an early season matchup worth watching. Maybe not top 5 but will show us a lot about both teams.

1. LSU/Bama

2. State/Bama (just because State will be 7-0 entering the game)

3. State/LSU (because State will be 8-1 entering the game)

4. State/UPig (because both teams will be 8-2 entering the game)

5. State/Mississippi- (because State finishes off the Bears 2nd straight 0-8 in the SEC)

With Petrino gone, I dont really see them as being of much interest this year. He WAS their offense.

I will say Bama - LSU, UF - UGA, SC - UF, UGA - SC, and UK - Tenn.

if you are scratching your head, I'll explain.

The West isnt in doubt, it will be won by either LSU or Alabama and it will be decided in the first game on my list. Period.

The east however is gonna come down to 3 teams more than likely, UGA, UF, and SC. so those 3 head to heads are important. The last one will basically decide whether or not Tenn can make it back with Dooley at the helm or not. If Tenn cannot win the revenge game, Dooley is history. Pure and simple, not way around it, may not even make it to Monday afternoon film session.

1.) Bama/LSU - Division and title implications
2.) Arky/TAMU - This will show just where revile and the boys fit in.
3.) Bama/Arky - The Hogs have a lot to prove.
4.) Auburn/Georgia - This could make Aubie's season and ruin Richts or vice versa
5.) South Carolina/Georgia - Could determine the East

I agree the East is more wide open. But as far as national importance, I still think the West has bigger games. I put Mizzou/Ga in, because they could put a huge monkey wrench into the East rankings with an early win. I think that will be a pretty good game. Also why I put Ga/SC. That may decide the East.

LSU/UA - 2 best teams
MSU/AU - Close game that could decide either team's season
MSU/aTm - See above
UM/VU - Can VU make it 6 of the last 8? I hope so.
USC/UGA - Decides the east

Dooley's fate will be decided long before he takes on a 3-8 team at home to end the season.

If they are instead 8-3 (not saying they will be, just for arguments sake) and they lose to KY again, does he remain the head coach?

ETA: I am talking Tenn being 8-3. Not KY

9-3 or 8-4 if one of the wins is against UF, USCe, UGA, or Bama.
