Which SEC team continues the dominance after Bama's decline?

It will be a mix of Florida, Georgia, and LSU probably.

Freezus

Like for realz

There's supposed to be parity now, but Bama and Saban laugh at that.

I'd say Florida.

Then Alabama will come back, we'll hire Kevin Sumlin or something. Alabama is where A&M coaches reach their full potential anyways.

LSU has a chance if Les gets fired

Agree with this, no one has a clue what will happen. But I do know AU will be back into the mix.

That is true. I wasn't basing my opinion on what will happen that far into the future. I just think any coach that takes over for Nick Saban will be set for their immediate future. Beyond five years is up to them.

I agree that Les isn't the greatest coach, but there would be a lot less people questioning him if Saban wasn't at Alabama. We aren't like Arkansas who can dub a coach great even after losing 5 in a row to Saban

I'm not sure where all of the Florida hype is coming from. Muschamp hasn't proven himself. Sure, he beat SC and LSU, great wins for the program, but almost lost to the ragin' cajuns, and lost to Louisville.

The only thing they've got going for them is great recruiting. But so does LSU, UGA, Bama, Auburn, and A&M.

I'm not saying Florida is going to suck, they are too talented to suck, they'll continue to be competitive, but I just can't see them being the team that picks up where Saban would leave off, in this hypothetical situation.

Maybe it's because of the average age of the rant, but so many of you don't remember that Richt came into UGA and immediately began domination of the conference, then fricked up by turning the offense over to Mike Bobo who took several years to get it right, then finally fired Martinez at DC (who had taken over for Van Gorder during UGA's brief dominance) and brought in Grantham who will be starting his 3rd year at DC in 2013, completely changing the defensive scheme.

Basically UGA is just now getting back to firing on all cylinders after two of Richt's mis-steps kept us in the 2nd tier for several years.

To reiterate, two Richt frickups-

1: Handing Offensive Coordinator position to a QB coach instead of hiring a proven coordinator... several years of on the job training for Mike Bobo.

2: Hiring Martinez at DC and not firing him quick enough.

UGA is back on the right path under Richt, recruiting is fantastic and the team is deeper than it's ever been.

Florida is still a big question mark.
