Who will win the SEC East in 2014? | Saturday Down South
Some positive talk about us, but I have to say if the defense comes together well, we could potentially be a "dark horse" candidate. Time will tell.
As an edit, a very interesting thing I notice is how many teams have mentionable secondary issues, and we are mentioned as having a killer WR core. If the O line holds up, many of our games could come down to who can simply outscore the other.
Too many question marks
Tennessee Volunteers
Vanderbilt Commodores
Too many questions exist for Tennessee and Vanderbilt to compete for the East. Tennessee has to replace both lines of scrimmage and has questions at quarterback. The running game will be fine, anchored by Jalen Hurd and Marlin Lane, and the Vols could boast the top receiving corps in the conference, headlined by All-SEC candidate Marquez North. The secondary and linebacking corps should be fine, but the defensive line and offensive line are major concerns. Vanderbilt loses experience, but overall, there shouldnt be too big of a drop off from 2013 to 2014. The Commodores have the easiest schedule in the SEC, and that should pay dividends when Derek Mason is pushing for his first bowl game appearance as a head coach. The offensive line and running backs are strengths; questions remain in the defensive secondary, at receiver and at quarterback.
