So...we're the vampire? How is that flattering to the program?

FWIW, I agree with your other bullet points.

Alabama being elite again is one of a handful of outcomes that would genuinely piss me off.  Esp with the way they bitched to get in last year.

That fanbase deserves to face multi year adversity if there is a CFB God at all.

We are the Evil Empire. Use whatever analogy makes us the bad guy.

I know there is a catch-all thread and other threads dedicated to specific teams, but I thought it would be convenient to have a thread that primarily discusses on the field stuff specific to this season and the standings in the SEC so we don't have to wade through the other bullshit.  If someone thinks this is a bad idea, I'll delete.

Some quick predictions:

  • LSU is wildly overrated.
  • Bama is going to be better than most think and will end up in the CCG
  • Georgia is going look more pedestrian than they have in years but still make the playoff
  • OU has the biggest delta on their success of their season -- it's either going to be surprisingly good or a trainwreck
  • Mike Elko will still be morbidly obese and A&M will still be 8-4
  • Hugh Freeze is going to make an ass out of himself
  • Tennessee's offense is going to be dogshit
  • South Carolina is going to regress back to the mean, despite Sellers still being a beast
  • And oh yeah, we're going to run this shit and the Texas animosity will be greater than ever. Like I said, never invite a vampire into your home. 

We're not a vampire. They're just fucking cheating, insecure pussies that are pissed we're gonna take away their fucking woobie.

I think SC will do pretty good this year, but they are my dark horse pick. 

Otherwise, I actually agree with every other point you make. I think Bama outperforms Georgia this year, probably more a decent amount. 

I COULD see aggie only winning 7.

Sauron ended up failing to win the whole enchilada. Put up a good fight though.

And they're gonna be 1 of the top 3 Tigers in the conference again this year, and probably next year, too.

Alabama is never going to be what they were with Saban. They were in shambles in game 4 on defense last year and normally a new coach loses the team in the 2nd year. This fucker did it in 16 quarters.

To summarize week 1:

Bama looks like ass.
LSU looks to have found a defense.
Tennessee looks to have won the QB trade with UCLA
Scar looks to be at the very least, competent.
Auburn is either pretty decent or Baylor sucks ass. Or potentially both.
Everybody else played an exhibition game.

Other than OU/Michigan, the slate looks pretty blah for week 2. Ole Miss has a revenge game against Kentucky in the only conference game on the schedule. ASU vs. MSU could be interesting as could Mizzou vs. Kansas. Maybe Vandy and Virginia Tech? The rest? Woof.

Florida, wtf was that?  Otherwise the bottom of the conference really showed out yesterday. Vandy, Mississippi State, Mizzou. 

I hate to say it but Oklahoma looked a million times better than I thought they would. Their qb may end up paralyzed but he was giving me Dillon Gabriel in the cotton bowl ptsd vibes. That guy is a gamer. I hope Michigan really is that terrible.

I'm trying to keep this thread going where we get some actual SEC football discussion. There are some really interesting games this week as we get into conference play:

Georgia at Tennessee - Georgia is a 3.5 point favorite on the road. They have a tendency to look like crap against garbage opponents and then show up when they need to, but does anyone really believe in Gunner Stockton, much less believe in him and Mike Bobo on the road? Georgia is really young this year. Still talented as hell, but young. 

Arkansas at Ole Miss - The hogs have demolished two bad teams and their QB can be a problem, but they are 7 point dogs at Ole Miss at night. Austin Simmons got injured last week against Kentucky but he's listed as probable. This seems like a game that Ole Miss has no business losing, but inexplicably finds a way to do so just to reaffirm their fans lot in life.

Florida at LSU - LSU is a 7.5 favorite at night in Death Valley against a Florida team with its back against the wall. LSU somehow lost to them last year in the swamp. I think Nussmeyer is one of the most overrated players in the country, but LSU looks a ton better on defense. I gotta think LSU puts some more nails in Sunbelt Billy's coffin on Saturday.

Vandy at South Carolina - I never thought I would be fired up to watch Vanderbilt play South Carolina, but here we are. This game has two of the most interesting and dynamic QBs in the conference. This is a sneaky huge game and should be a great environment at night in Columbia. 

A&M at Notre Dame - ND has had two weeks prepare and the rest of their schedule is mostly dogshit. So for playoff purposes they need a W badly against a team with a "name", as much as A&M qualifies as a name. A&M is notoriously horrible on the road. The Irish are 6.5 point favorites. I don't think ND is anything special, but I would be stunned if A&M beat them in South Bend at night.

Wisconsin at Bama - I guess Bama got right last week, but they are laying 21 at home against Wisconsin in an early start. That seems like a ton of points for a team that got pasted by Florida State week 1. I still think Luke Fickell is a decent enough coach and they are running a new offense with Jeff Grimes (remember when Mack Brown desperately tried to make him the highest paid OL coach in the country and he told Mack, "hell no") as OC and have a bunch of transfers... so maybe they're improved? If this game is even competitive in the late third/early fourth quarter I can't even imagine the pucker factor for Kalen Deboer. 

OU at Temple - The Sooners should kill them, but that's a horrible sandwich game for them (between Michigan and Auburn) on the road with an early start on the east coast against a team with a really good coach. I'm not ballsy enough to pick Temple, but this one has a lot of potential for some early hilarity. That line went from OU - 26.5 to OU -21.5. That's huge movement without a significant injury. Just saying...

The rest of the conference plays a bunch of tomato cans, but overall this is a pretty good slate. I was never that fired up to move to the SEC, but there are more interesting games this Saturday in this conference than there were in an entire season in the Big 12.

I think OU wins and likely covers, but I like Keeler putting Mateer on notice that they are going to make him "pay a price" anytime he runs.  Given what a bunch a mouthy loose cannons the Sooners have, this could have several entertaining extracurricular encounters.

Wisconsin is like bad bad. Bama should handle that one fairly comfortably. 

I expect OU to put on a show at Temple and curb stomp them so that they can divert all the powerball budget to NIL when the gooners get super excited that this is their year. 

I think Tennessee is fools gold again. If you remember last year, the beat all of their weak opponents by 50+, but got shut down against quality defenses. I think the same thing happens this year. 

I have a sneaky suspicion that SCar is going to beat Vandy. I don't really know why, but that is what I am going with.
