šŸˆ 5 off the radar predictions for the SEC this spring

As spring practices get underway, the temptation to make predictions overwhelms some SEC football fans.

To be fair, it happens to us media-types, too. It’s not hard to find a story about how great Tennessee will be, or about how Alabama will cope with its latest quarterback derby.

Instead of weighing in on those topics in long form, I’ll give you the short version. Alabama will be just fine and the Volunteers look very good on paper.

Here are a few other predictions about what we might see this spring around the SEC:

5 off the radar predictions for the SEC this spring
 
Former Wisconsin coordinator Dave Aranda is the new man in charge of the LSU defense, and it’s safe to say changes are coming.

For starters, don’t be surprised if the Tigers line up in a few more 3-4 looks this spring. It makes sense, based on Aranda’s background and the available talent returning in Baton Rouge. He’s not getting caught up in labels or formations, but in creating mismatches for his players.

Which happens to be thin at the most crucial part of that scheme, the linebacker corps. We will see some weird looks from them this fall, but I don't see a lot of sustained success in that base set.
