College Football

Since we are so close to yet another college football season, I see that the predictions on the internet are rampant with more SEC propaganda than you can shake a stick at. Yes, for once I am in agreement that the SEC is going to be the best division in college football but does that necessarily mean that the champion will come from this division? Probably not and here is why;

The Georgia Bulldogs are thought to be the best team in the SEC this year but no one is taking notice to the brutal stretch of games that they play starting in late October by going to LSU, followed by the worlds largest outdoor cocktail party (if you don't know what that is you should be reading a soccer blog), and after traveling to Kentucky and Auburn. This is a good team but I don't even know that they 95 Cornhuskers could have completed this run of games without a blemish.

Florida goes as Tebow goes which is evident by the way that the offense struggled in the Georgia game last year when his shoulder was hurt. Also, this was one of the worst passing secondaries in all the nation a year ago largely due to youth but lets see how they rebound with the experience.

Tennessee comes back with another good squad but will have questions at Quarterback with the departure of Erik Ainge. Normally in big games you can pretty much be assured that the play calling will overshadow whatever talent they have as well.

LSU coming off a Championship is in disaray but I'm sure they will find a way to put a quality team on the field. The struggle will be to be able to contain the problems off the field and this goes for their staff as well.

Alabama and Auburn may be the two teams that suprise many in this conference and lets not forget that over the last 3 years Auburn is 5-2 against teams in the top 5.

These are only a few reasons to beleive that the champion may not come from the SEC since USC will be undefeated if they get past TOSU, Texas and Missouri will be one loss teams, and two losses may not be good enough (even with the strength of schedule) to make it to a championship.

There will be more to come shortly...
