Why too early predictions, but we are getting no respect in them.

Actually I think we are about where we should be in them as far as a neutral party looking at it. I think most non Gator fans would think Tenn is ready to have a better season this season than us with all those young players who got experience and that QB that took over playing as good as he did near the end of the season. We know we will beat them again however.

Until slUT actually proves it can beat us, any poll listing them above us is total BS. Me thinks this poll, produced by a company in Tennessee, is a bit slanted.

too early without the recruiting classes in, and the spring drills started. Most people on the outside think Tennesse is on the upswing. Missouri should have some early issues with the new d-line. Georgia is always "loaded" but always allowed the coaching to bring them down.

It will be interesting to see what happens. I don't even know what Georgia's QB situation is and don't know much about what Missouri has coming back. Tenn does seem to be set at the QB position which is always a big plus. The East will be wide open most likely for everyone except KY and Vandy.

Last year was the same way, and with the staff we had we $hit the bed. Now we have turn over as much as the other schools. It will definitely be interesting.

The East is wide open, as it has been since 2010.

I think we're about right on that list. TN has their QB and RB, and overall *has* been on the upswing. As much as I'll chant along with 10-in-a-row, this could be the one that ends the streak. And, I can't put UGA atop the East - as noted, the coaching finds a way to screw it up (yay Richt extension!). Don't know how long Mizz will be at the top by default, seems their luck has to run out soon.

On the West, I raise an eyebrow to the placement of the Magnolia teams. MSU at the bottom? Ole Miss ahead of ARK? And like Mizz, there is some black magic in LSU and without any reason I have a feeling Les is going to do well again.

It is very early, I'd like to see how signing day shakes out, we may not have enough offensive linemen to field a team. That being said Missouri loses alot on both lines of scrimmage. They lose their defensive coordinator and defensive line coach. Georgia loses quite a bit aswell. Not only are they breaking a new a oc they're breaking in a new qb and receivers. South Carolina also loses their qb and damn near everyone in the trenches on both sides of the ball. The east is wide open.

Tennessee hasn't beat us in a decade. These rankings are ludicrous

UGA will be breaking in a new QB. They can't just give it to Chubb every play, well, maybe they think that they can. However, given what we did to him this past season for the last three quarters of that game, you'd have to think that the rest of the league will have figured out how to stop or slow him down.

I thought that the most curious predictions were in the West. Miss St gonna fall all the way down to last place? And Ole Miss still ahead of the Piggies? There could be a logjam on that side of the league more than half-way into the season.

Too damned early, at least wait until after signing day. Regardless, we own UcheaT...not buying into their hype machine.

I love this game. We played it last year. UGA, Tinerc, Mizzu, Bammer, LSU and everyone else is breaking in a new QB and we have the experienced First Round Draft Pick* Future Heisman Jeffy Duhhriskel returning so we are going to win it all!!!!!! Yeah, I LOVE this game.

*Trust me, coz Andrieu and Duuley told me it's true.

I said and believe that Arky under the steady guidance of Bielema will be 2nd at worst this year and will be a force to be reckoned with as long as he stays ay Arky. AU will be 4th behind LSU and Miss schools will both be sucking horribly while fighting for last place in the west.
