The post-season rankings will probably look much different.

UGA offense is #2 yet has major questions at Qb, only thing they have is nick Chubb. And that UGA defense is so good, we saw that last year where they locked down our run game.

None of this stuff means anything. That's why you play the games.

I really don't care what these pre-season prognosticators say. But personally, I would rather be ranked low than to be overly loved at this point. Let's just go out and kick some butt. We can revisit all of this at year's end.

All the analysts are conspiring against us or negative Nellie's who listen to that lawgator a$$hole too much.

I actually thought 6th is optimistic.

I think we could be top 5 nationally talent wise. Idk about the new coordinator.

I would probably have us about 4th. I don't think Georgia or Auburn will have a better defense than us.

There can be no defense for prognosticators.

Auburns defense is the equal to our offense. If people think an overrated DC can turn around auburns defense year 1, they might as well say Mcelwain can turn around our offense year 1.

Generally these preseason prognostications aren't worth the cyber space they're imprinted on, but just for fun I played with the numbers assigning equal value to the offensive and defensive rankings, ignored special teams, coaching, home-field advantage, etc and and assumed your composite offense and defensive rank would predict your final SEC record. It comes out like this form best to worst.

UGA 1st place in the SEC and should finish 8-0 or 7-1
Bama 2nd with a record of 7-1 or 6-2
OM 3rd at 6-2
AU 4th, 6-2 or 5-3
UT and LSU tie for 5th-6th finishing 5-3
A&M 7th with a record of 4-4
Ark, MSU and Mz in a 3 way tie for 8th-10th with records of 4-4 vs 3-5
UF 11th, record 3-5
USC 12th 2-6
UK 13th 2-6 vs 1-7
Vandy 14th 1-7 vs 0-8

So UGA definitely and OM and UT probably too high, and hopefully UF too low (could be wishful thinking) but otherwise looks reasonable. If we beat them (which we always do) then flip us with UT making us 5-3 and them 3-5.

I say they've been hitting that deep down south moonshine. After we lay the smack down on a few teams they'll see that this gator does more than growl.
