I was wrong about Florida, I thought they were going to be a lot better than they turned out. Didn't realize they were so fragile; I thought winning the East a couple times, they'd still have a solid core.
I was wrong about Orgeron at LSU- I thought this season was going to be fool's gold, a strong year based on a solid team left over from last year. I now expect the impending collapse to happen sooner.
I was right about Bama winning it all. In fairness, that's not a hard prediction to make. It seems like the stars have to align just for some team to challenge them.

Dead wrong about: I thought Jalen Hurts would improve significantly as a passer.
Right about: I didn't think Bama's 2017 defense, despite losing some great 2016 players, would drop off much.

I thought Alabama would lose at least two games in the regular season, not win the west, and go to a mediocre bowl to play Wisconsin or Michigan State.
I got one out of three.
ETA - I was right about Georgia taking over the east. But I was dead wrong about LSU's offensive improvement. I really thought Canada would be a good coordinator there.

I was correct that UGA fans would reveal themselves as the worst fan base in college football. I was also correct that they would inevitably choke at some point.
Besides that, not much else of significance.

Ditto---and up until the game with A&M,
I thought he just hadn't unleashed
his new and improved passing game yet. It was
around then, a sobering thought began to
creep in that it wasn't coming.

I though Mizzou would be good on offense to start the year, they were horrific.

I was right about uga winning the east and our OL being subpar.
I was wrong about JS' running ability. I was wrong about the season I expected UF to have and thought Clemson would lose 3 this year.

I was wrong about Bielema too. I really did think he could make it in the SEC. Oh well.
Also wrong about Auburn. They outperformed my expectations, even when I smiled smugly at being proven right after the LSU game.
That'll teach me not to be smug. Well, actually it won't because I have a lot of trouble learning from experience, but it should teach me not to be smug. Anyway, Auburn deserves a round of applause for its season, even it they humiliated the SEC at the end. Yeah, yeah, backhanded compliment. As I said, I don't learn from experience.

I said I expected Tua to pass Hurts as the starter before the season ended.
I was sorta right, just way later than i expected

So you tolerated it pretty well and I was right all along yet I was scolded, told I was stupid and banned for a week for saying he was a below average quarterback. All in the past now. Not sure who I will bash this year but I have my eye on Matt Womack.
