    I think they'll beat both Mississippies and find a way to win either the Florida or Missouri game (both at home). Bowl eligible would be a successful season.

    Our offense should be breaking school records with Knile, Tyler and Cobi. I'll be in basic training then AIT from Oct. 23 to March 10. Sucks for me but I'll only catch half of the reg season.

    Auburn 8-4

    Would be better if QB wasn't a glaring concern. Questions loom with 2 new coordinators and the departure of Michael Dyer, but RB's grow on trees down on the plains, so I'm not too worried about that

    Next year will be AU's year, although the schedule sure does favor them this year with only 4 away games

    Chizik is killing it in recruiting, especially on the defensive side. Hopefully it will be a long damn time before I see AU giving up 400 a game like they did last year

    I got LSU in the west and UGA in the East -----> LSU to win both the SEC and the natty

    Bama has an incredible team, I just think it's too hard to repeat. Probably the only reason i'm not picking them. Oh, plus the fact that I hate them and hope they all die

    rather optimistic, don't you think?

    I see 5-7... No way you beat both Mississippi schools, both of which are on the road

    might be worse...I think SMU is a scary team to play. June Jones knows wtf he's doing. Plus you're playing in their house

    I'll go with 8-4 or 7-5. Yes, that offense is going to be silly

    You good with the new coaching staff?

    Most interesting thing to me--is how A&M and Mizzou transition into the SEC. That and who wins the West between Bama and LSU. Hopefully there will be that long awaited USC vs. SEC match-up that fate has not given us fans.

    I'd love to see that as well. I know the Trojan offense should be stellar, but how good is the D?

    Mizzou probably has a puncher's chance in the weaker SEC East, although Tennessee should be much improved, thereby improving the division as a whole (Vanderbilt is also continuing to get better, especially recruiting)

    A&M has a much tougher road in the west, although I definitely expect them to be compe ive, especially at home.

    They definitely both belong in the SEC. Neither will be an embarrassment, and both will improve as time goes on, imo

    USC's linebacker corps with Haynes Pullard and the Secondary with T.J McDonald and Nickell Robey will be good. It's the DL that will be the weakest point for this team because they are young and unproven and with the injury to Devon Kennard, this may be the one thing that costs them in a game--no pass rush/stopping the run.

    How is Arkansas' D? That offense will be explosive if Nile Davis is back to 2010 form.

    A thin/young/inexperienced DL is going to kill you against LSU/BAMA, who have two of the biggest, nastiest, and most talented O-lines in the country. They also have the backs to repeatedly pound you and against Bama you would still have to worry about the pass...LSU, not so much. Time of possession would be a huge factor in a potential matchup between SC and Bama/LSU. Also, the head coaching matchup is going to be wayyyyyyyyy in favor of whichever team ends up matched up with the Trojans. Whereas Pete Carroll inspired fear in SEC teams, Lane Kiffin will draw snickers instead

    It would be an intriguing offense vs defense matchup to say the least, and in the past, USC was the one team that could own the SEC. So who knows?





    Arkansas will mos def have a tremendous offense, but losing Petrino is huge and I think their defense, while solid in most areas, will just not be good enough for them to challenge for the west. (They would probably win the East going away if they were over there)

    My other concern with the Razorbacks is recruiting. Not sure that Smith will be able to bring in the kind of talent, at least offensively, that Petrino did.

    They're definitely better than Auburn, but significantly below the level of LSU or Bama, mainly due to the imbalance on defense.

    I'm sure Brutalis can tell you more

    Well, firstly the DL has to hold up against the likes of Oregon and whatnot before we can really get to see that in action. I would definitely give the nod to Saban in regards to having an advantage of coaching prowess. I have to wonder, though, about Les Miles and how he poorly handled the the QB situation in the BCS le game and whether he has the moxie or is it a question of other elements in regards to his planning.

    While I'm not totally sold on Kiffin, he could very well be better than anyone gives him credit for. I don't know. This will be the season that either makes me a believer or one that I will begin to doubt him a little in the ways of coaching.

    Does Lattimore return to form? He is a superb back and it'll be a shame if he doesn't return to somewhat form.

    Losing season, most likely.

    This is the "Bend Over and Take It" season. Next season, prolly the "Consensual, More or Less" season. 3rd year, the "Numbers Game: Maybe We'll Get Lucky" season.

    Yes, he's as good as it gets at that position in college football, but the oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooole' ball coach will pound him up the middle over and over and over because he's got at the QB position and no other way to win. I expect Latt to be worn down by the time he gets to the NFL, significantly shortening his career and lowering his ceiling because the visor handed it to him 30 times a game (plus 5 or so dump-offs). He shoulda went to Auburn (which he almost did) and shared carries with a bunch of other backs

    The s will have another very good defense, though

    That's a good take, imo. You guys may surprise someone at home, but the road is going to be very, very tough

    Such a shame...

    So is Georgia the favorite out of the SEC East? How are the Gators shaping up and seeing that clip of Vandy's coach handing out a scholarship to a walk-on was pretty much awesome.

    How is Auburn going to fare this year, Symple?

    We beat SMU 46-14 last season. Playing at their house isn't scary seeing that there will be more Aggies present than SMU fans tbqh.

    La Tech is the scary OOC game but I think A&M will be ready for them. Sumlin is well aware of what they bring to the table seeing that he played them last year at Houston.


    As far as conference games go I think A&M will beat Ole Miss and Mizzou and I think they will win one of the Florida, Arkansas and Mississippi State games. I really think A&M can beat Arkansas this year at home in a shootout. That type of game and offensive battle could definitely benefit Sumlin and Co.

    Ole Miss arguably has the toughest schedule in all of college football this season, definitely the toughest in the SEC.

    Depends who you ask, but it seems either the s or the Dawgs are being picked to win the East

    Florida is the 3rd best team in the East, imo, and has tremendous questions on offense. They were abysmal last year. Muschamp won't get fired after this season, even if he only wins 7 games or so, but if he doesn't deliver by his 3rd year the he'll be gone in a big hurry. It's not like Meyer left the cupboard bare


    I addressed Auburn up above, and the only thing I'll add to that is that the defense will be better this year and a favorable schedule should allow them to at least match their record from last year.

    2013-14 looks to be when Chizik's excellent recruiting will start to pay off, and the team will be back to 3 deep up and down the depth chart after Tuberville let the reigns go in his final few seasons.

    Not sure who's better between Georgia and USCe but Georgia definitely has the easier path to the SECCG out of the two.
