They are the media darling of the SEC this year. I think they will be better, but still a year or maybe even 2 away. That division is UGA's to lose, but they do lose it often. With UF and USC expected to be down this year, that really only leaves UT to challenge UGA for the crown.. albeit an aluminum crown.

I think Pink nailed it. Georgia always finds a way to screw up and lose the east and allow someone else to win it. (Mizzou)..........Having said that, if Georgia pulls a Georgia and screws the pooch, that leaves Mizzou and UT to battle it out to see who backs into the east division winner's seat. With a little luck and avoidance of the injury bug....I think UT has a decent shot.

They shouldn't be the favorites, but it won't surprise me if they win the East.

Kind of a polite way of saying "You all suck, but that team has a chance not to suck the most"

The Tide will defeat the Leghumpers in the first rematch for an SEC title. Really no suspense for Alabama until bowl season.

 

[Bammerboy321]

So much hype for Dobbs and their offense. Dobbs is a good player and has North on the outside and Hurd at RB to compliment him, but they replace a good bit up front on the offensive line. They have a favorable home schedule: Georgia, Arkansas, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and yes, even Vandy. Of course they have a bye week before they play Alabama, while Alabama plays @A&M the week prior. Still though, they play @ Florida (who I think may surprise some people this year), inside of BDS (BDS will be ramped up for this one this year), and @Mizzou.

 

[Harry Elephante]

They have just as good or better odds to win the East as anybody else.

Muschamp nuked Florida's program. Mizzou is due to return to what will be their perennial 4th place home. South Carolina is fading overall and has shown itself to be inconsistent. And Georgia has the toughest cross-divisional draws in Alabama and Auburn. With Dobbs under center, I'd actually be mildly surprised if Tennessee doesn't play in Atlanta.

I can't believe no one has asked him what he might be loosing.

Bama did it in 1999 with Florida, perhaps it's happened more than that one time.

EDIT - I looked it up. It's happened six times (1999, 2000, 2001, 2003, 2004, 2010). I had no idea.

Richt has lost control of the national media's expectations for his team.

MO will be in the mix. Easiest schedule in the SEC.

Thirteenth easiest in the nation according to this site:

13. Missouri

Yes, the SEC is powerful, but the Tigers still find their way on our list. Repeating as SEC East champions and winning 11 games isn’t a stretch with the way their schedule sets up. Of course, if they do that, they still have to face the SEC West winner in the SEC title game, no easy task.

Sept. 5 – Southeast Missouri
Sept. 12 – @arkansas State
Sept. 19 – Connecticut
Sept. 26 – @Kentucky
Oct. 3 – South Carolina
Oct. 10 – Florida
Oct. 17 – @Georgia
Oct. 24 – @Vanderbilt
Nov. 5 – Mississippi State
Nov. 14 – BYU (neutral)
Nov. 21 – Tennessee
Nov. 28 – @arkansas

Talk about easing your way into things. The first month of the season could set the Tigers up to be 4-0, provided they can win in Lexington. South Carolina and Florida aren’t pushovers, but the Tigers get them at home. Even the toughest non-conference opponent, BYU, is played at a neutral site in Missouri. If you’re going to go on the road in the SEC, you hope one of those trips is to Vanderbilt.

The national media has lost control of their expectations for Richt's team, too.

Loosing it? What is "it"?

A knot? A ratchet strap?

I feel stupid. I attended the '99 game. I don't know what I was thinking. Oh yeah, I wasn't.

Loose > Lose

Damn, I thought you were joking! I just asked the same thing of Siri on my phone, and that's exactly what she said.

Thought it was a joke too! Damn Siri!!

Nailed it.
