14. Florida Gators: The quarterback competition will be fascinating the next few weeks as Notre Dame transferMalik Zaire pushes presumed front-runnerFeleipe Franks. Quarterback is clearly the missing piece for a team with good depth at the skill spots. The defense turns over quite a bit, and an offseason injury to safety Marcell Harriscreates another void. Florida hasn't gained much respect despite consecutive SEC East titles. It can earn some by beating Michigan in the opener.

Who listens to ESPN?

Its probably about the area we should start at. I think Auburn could be a really good team and win at Clemson early in the season.

We are # 16 and Michigan is # 9 in the coaches poll.

We will work our way up and then lose some game we shouldn't lose due to inept play calling and outright stupidity.

what do coaches know

We could be a 10-2 team with some decent QB play, or we could be 6-6 if our offense is like it has been. I expect somewhere in the middle, which is another 8-4 season for Mediocre Mac.

What's funny is that the window really may be that wide open due to all the unknowns. 6-6 or 10-2... its anybody's guess. The recruiting has definitely picked up recently , but thats not gonna have much impact this season.

Lemme guess. Zaire and Franks both go down to injuries and we're stuck with LDR?

Nawww, Trask was the original starter that couldn't start due to a freak moped injury.
