I'm really excited about the transfers in the secondary. It sounds like Jermod McCoy is poised to break out. If the secondary can play more consistently, this D can be special.

Florida at 20? Computer malfunction on that one.

The SEC is projected to have 11 out of the top 20? Wow! The SEC is running away with almost every sport these days.

Schedule is pretty weak outside of going to Tuscaloosa.

You are correct! Guess I should've checked their schedule before I posted. WOW...That schedule is as easy as a Bama cheerleader...

I wish we had them this season.

Bama cheerleaders?

Computer has Mizzou at 10. Not sure how excited I can get over that computer's predictions.

Ole Miss at 16 is way too low. They have UGA at home (possible upset) and OU at home, where they should be favored. They are at LSU. Other than that, they should be heavily favored in all other games. Dodging the Vols, TX, Bama, Mizzou and A&M with only one really tough road game makes their schedule look pretty good.

Bama will not finish in the top 10. Their schedule is brutal: @ Wisconsin, UGA, @vols, Mizzou, @lsu, @OU, AU. They lose at least 3 and maybe as many as 5.

Kansas? Are ya sure this isn't basketball?

 

[VOLSBEERS1992]

Just FYI, everyone referencing teams' schedules ITT I am pretty sure that is not a part of the numbers used by the ESPN FPI. It is simply who would be favored vs who on a neutral field based on all types of analytics. Your schedule is not a part of it.

 

[LAVol1]

Agree. They lost 11 starters and some #2 guys on the depth chart. But, with Brady Cook at QB, they'll be a threat to everyone they play.

Floriduh always gets favor... F- floriduh

You are probably right. But, PSU at #6 must reflect their really weak schedule. The only top 15 team they play is tOSU. Franklin is 3-17 against top 10 teams and one of those was over Utah. He's 12-26 against ranked teams. Not too good for a perennial pre-season top 10 team.

You know who else loves us? Otis Day and the Knights.

Yeah, they lost their really dynamic D Coordinator to LSU and a lot to the NFL on D that will hurt. Their offense will be pretty good but losing the #1 RB in the SEC will hurt their consistent Offense IMO. They have a good QB in Cook and probably top WR Luther Burden in the SEC. I look for them to take a step back but IMO they do have the easiest schedule in the SEC although all SEC slates are pretty tough outings.

ESPN loves Tennessee?????

Look at Missouri’s schedule and you will understand it a little better. Murray State, Buffalo, Boston College, Vandy, Texas A & M, UMass, Alabama, Auburn, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Miss State, Arkansas. Not much push back from that group except from Bama & Oklahoma.

Florida at 20? Computer malfunction on that one.

Some betting sites have moved Florida's over-under wins to 4.5 from 5.5 - betting markets are saying they win five games.

 

[rdk4121]

#20 is still 11th in the SEC though

 

[fefe]

Florida is at #20 because the computer is assuming they will beat #9
