I will go first. It’s hot as hell right now but I see signs of the seasons changing already if you are in tune.

Georgia
Oklahoma
Ole Miss
Texas

I would say your list appears to be reasonable

3 out those 4 are probable... but only 2 are realistic.

Georgia and then everybody else in no particular order: OM, LSU, longhorns, OU, Texas A&M.

By the end of September there will be a big separation of who is heading in the direction of playoffs.

Ole Miss is absolutely not making the playoff.

Texas
Georgia
LSU

Not sure if 3-4 SEC teams make it. The 4th is A&M though.

Last season I chose Aggy as the surprise team and they made it. This season I'm going with:
Georgia
Bama
LSU
Aggy
and probably Texas. I think Texas beats OSU.

I see a regression to the mean for the Aggies this season.

Anyone posting LSU should look up athleticism decline post-Lisfranc. Given Leavitt relied upon his mobility, he's likely to be a shell of his former self

It certainly affected Matt Corral. He was in contention to start for the Panthers when he injured his.

That said, I think Lane could put a random tRant member at QB and get some production out of them.

Elko is a good coach. The o line for Aggy last season was strong. Both of their lines will have a lot of new players. We'll see what happens with them.

I think if Texas beats OSU you all will ride that momentum.

I'm hoping LSU is on that list but who knows what the season will bring.

I think 5 make it. ou and uga I have a lot of faith in to make it. I feel confident in Tex and bama but not sold like I am on ou/uga. But ATM Tenn auburn ole miss and lsu is where the frickery comes in. Those teams will be fighting for spots and possibly taking others out the pic but one of those is going to get hot and make a run. Lot of parity throughout cfb this year.
