Ole Miss in the West and Georgia in the east again I guess. They have the talent to win 11 or 12 games, but will likely only win 9 or 10.

Auburn... not because they lack talent or coaching, but because they tend to do so when their ceiling is at its highest.

Tennesse. Though I'm hoping it's Arkansas.

And a&m is getting no hype. Not sure what you're on about mate.

I think you have to be hyped. Everyone has already decided we will be 7th.

Like a&m fans, I've seen several conference predictions for Arkansas in the 5th to 7th range in the West, so that's not much hype.

Oddly, on the national preseason polls we've been anywhere from 10th to 26th, averaging in the 18th to 22nd range approximately. That would be our hype baseline until more polls come out.

Lsu, auburn, and ole miss in the top ten in several polls, so much more hyped than the Razorbacks.

Yep, nothing to see here except ANOTHER thread by an LSU fan about A&M and Arky

Winner, winner, chicken dinner. If Arkansas doesn't win the West this year people will dog pile on them for being "over hyped". Meanwhile if A&M doesn't field a top ten college defense then everyone will be going on about how over rated Chavis is.

For the Aggies even a bit of improvement in their defense will do wonders. While I am sure they would love to have a Wrecking Crew type defense a group that falls in the middle of the college ranks would do just fine.

For Arkansas I'd say our ceiling this year is probably somewhere in the middle of the pack of the West. Obviously I hope we win the West and go undefeated but you'll notice I'm not flying out to Vegas to bet my life savings on it.

If you want to look at hyped schools that could fall on their face take a look at some of the top ten teams. History in the SEC indicates that one or two of those highly ranked teams is going to flameout and wind up with very a mediocre record.

Most hype is Auburn. We know how that turns out. I say 4 loses for them.

These threads would be better if we had the hype your using. I have seen places and posters have Arkansas from 6-6 to 10-2 . I haven't seen A&M get much hype . I would say the most over hyped teams would be Auburn and Arkansas.

I thought most people were predicting A&M to finish 7th in the west.
