2015 SEC Football Preview and Predictions

[O.iatlhawksfan]

I don't think so. Last year's success was more of a result of the fact the SEC was in transition. A record number of guys left early for the 2014 draft that it sorta left a void. That allowed mediocre teams like Mississipi State to play above their talent level. Dak lost all those guys to the draft in 2015. They'll be breaking in alot of new starters this year. I think he struggles and regresses from last year's production.

Plus Jeremy Johnson and Josh Dobbs (who barely played last season) are simply more talented. Dak will be lucky to finish the season as the 3rd team All-SEC.

Prescott wasn't a fluke yu can tell in his sophomore year when he took the starting job and won Miss St the egg bowl he was going to be a good one. Last season was only a surprise to people who wasn't paying attention which I can understand bc not a lot of people are checking for Miss st. But Dak's still getting better as a passer and they're getting de'runna Wilson back so I expect a big year from him but I agree Miss at will regress bc of them losing so much on defense and their leading receiver and rusher.

Real 2013-esque looking team for LSU this season

How did that turn out

This years defense is way better than that year

 

[Rigby.]

This years defense is way better than that year

Yeah and the offense is worse

Balances out

 

[O.iatlhawksfan]

Yeah and the offense is worse

Balances out

At that analogy

our defense was atrocious that year. Our offense isn't horrible at all.

 

[Tommy Sheppard]

bama brehs do y'all think Robert foster will have a breakout year?


I had a chance to see him play and dude was a monster in high school, it took him a few years to move up the depth chart but I been seeing good things about his progress.

Yall scored 7 points



Against Auburn

 

[Rigby.]

It was before the Auburn defense collapsed of course, but 7 points is awful

 

[TrapHouse Rock]

You still think that Tennessee is going to win 10 games! You're seriously the WOAT!

Get out of here that was Brandon Harris 1st start being thrown into the fire In a hostile environment.

@SubZeroDegrees @BigSteve goin to Neyland is gon be tough as fukk. We got no answer at QB and I think UT is ready to take the next step, I don't think they win 10 games tho

Only reason you made this thread was to jerk off Tennessee.

Tennessee sucks. They've sucked for over a decade. They're going to continue to suck.

This thread sucks.

SEC media just picked Tennessee to finish 2nd in the East today. alot of the commentators on College Footballl Live and SEC Network (like Joey Galloway, Marcus Spears, and Booger McFarland) picked them to win the East. ESPN's Football Power Index gives Tennessee the 3rd best chance to win the SEC this upcoming season.

so its not just me.

I voted for Tennessee out of pity.

back to back top 5 recruiting classes. potential heisman trophy winner at QB. Tennessee has the 2nd most SEC titles all-time (behind Alabama). as well as being the alma mater of arguably the greatest offensive and defensive players in NFL history. Peyton Manning and Reggie White.

our record speaks for itself. we don't need ur pity.

You still think that Tennessee is going to win 10 games! You're seriously the WOAT!

they have a favorable schedule. only 4 true road games. @Florida, @Alabama, @Kentucky, and @ Missouri. Florida is rebuilding. Kentucky is Kentucky. And I believe Mizzou takes a step back. all their toss-up games are at home (Oklahoma, Arkansas, Georgia). I think they win 2 of the 3 games.

10-2 is very possible. Tennessee won 7 games last year even with a 1 point loss to Florida at home and a 3 point loss to Georgia on the road. And this was before they inserted Josh Dobbs into the starting lineup. Many fans believe that if Dobbs was the starter from day 1, Tennesee woulda won 9 games last year. Thus making my prediction for 10 wins not that outlandish.
