We've answered it several times. How many more times can we say "yes, we will contend for the SECE? That's all CNB asked.
Not just contend, we'll likely be the favorites to win the East. Yeah, we have a new QB, but that is about the only thing of major consequence we replace, we return more than anyone else in the East except perhaps Mizzou.

UF returns a ton as well including 13 from season ending injuries. We ready.

Yeah, you guys don't lose much more. Unfortunately you return Driskel and that is sort of subtraction by addition if he isn't better than last year.
A lot depends on Roper and who steps up in the secondary and the center of that DL. Also, who exactly is gone on the OL? I only counted the three Sr. Who is the Center, it looks like you guys are graduating both the starting OC and his backup.

Moore will move to C it seems. I'll have to look at the rest later.

Florida is anyone's guess at this point. They seem to have fallen off the map and UGA is always a contender but will usually poopy in their pants and blow it somehow. I am starting to see a scary similarity between UGA and LSU.

I'm not sure about that.
I know that USC is returning on Offense 8 of 11 starters, 19 of 22 on the 2 Deep; and on Defense 6 of 11 starters, 17 of 22 on the 2 Deep.
Are y'all's numbers similar to those?

On offense we lose Murray, starting TE, a WR, and 3 of the most inconsistent OL in the SEC.
On defense, we lose a DE.
There are other guys that barely ever played, like Stripling and some walkons/special teamers like Blake Sailors but I'm trying to keep the numbers to players that actually contributed on O or D.

That's not bad, so 6 starter on Offense and 1 starter on defense.
Any guys from '13's 2 Deep (2nd string) graduating or just not coming back?

The WR we lose wasn't a starter. He was a reserve until the injuries.
I guess a few backups could transfer. Not sure yet

It makes me laugh so hard that perennial power houses of Tennessee and Georgia hang their season on beating lil ole South Carolina with their terrible history.

Yeah, not bad at all. Like Crow said, the WR was a guy that contributed this year, but wasn't a starter (Wooten). At TE, I think we'll be ok, still have Rome and Davis and are adding 5* Blazevich who is REALLY good.
The OL should be able to be replaced, tbh. The OGs were weird, they'd look ready to start in the NFL one game and like they'd have trouble making a varsity HS team the next. The LT...you remember in our game how Clowney was blowing up our LT early on in the game, but we had a little success actually stopping JC there later on? The guy getting blown up was Gates and the few bouts of good play we had against him were mostly Beard, the guy that'll be replacing him. Not saying he'll be some beast based on that game, but I do think it shows there shouldn't be much drop off.
Garrison Smith is a very good player at DE, but Drew is coming back and he was the playmaker this year. We'll be fine there, just have to hope that another year of experience will help the rest of the defense improve from this year's performance.
Biggest thing is that we've still got this guy:

Only Vandy will challenge Mizzou and SCAR.
Posted on 1/8/14 at 12:33 pm to Nicolae
Gurley, Marshall (if he's ready), Michel, Chubb
There's also the Great White Thunder and JJ Green
So many RBs, doh

Will Bobby Johnson come back to be the skipper after Franklin goes to the Happiest of Valleys?

As dennis miller said about buy one get on free at kmart, "two of shite, is still shite, if they really want to frick you they would give you three".
Your defense is shite.

Defense was good enough to slap the foolish cocks.

A healthy uga was really good. Beat y'all and LSU. After our injuries we slipped. Why is it so hard to see that?
You're correct about that ... no doubt, even though you lost to the taterheads with a "healthy" team.
But IMHO where most have questions is after seeing y'all without Murray. Y'all looked lost at times.
