Great read. And in all honesty, if that is how the season pans out I will be pleased. However, I would want to win the bowl game...which I think UT would if playing Fla. State.

Also, I think UT will have some players emerge who are not on some of those lists.

Where is this from? The reason I ask is because I agree with most of it. Although, I don't think Texas would beat Florida in the BCS National Championship Game.

Interesting that McNeil is overrated but still makes the top 100, second team all SEC, and is ranked higher than Big Dan.

M Walls should definitely be on the newcomers list... Maybe even Hughes since he looks like a starter now.

exactly how many MG of aderall have you ingested? impressive read nonetheless. i don't agree with Ole Miss winning the SEC West though. I think they finish 3rd in the West behind Bama and LSU.

Can flordia state play in a bowl game next season...


Also, I think this could be a pretty spot on prediction.

After watching some of Georgia's Spring Game, I honestly don't see any way that we could lose to them given the fact that we no longer have the liability of Fulmer, Chavis and company. There is NO CHANCE that Georgia hangs 28 points on our defense as this article suggests. Their offense looks even less productive than ours did last year, and it's REALLY difficult for any offense to be more inept than ours was last season.

I think we have a much better chance of losing to Ole Miss than to Georgia.

I think you (or wherever this listing came from, which by the way is very impressive and I agree with most of it) have our defense giving up way too many points... I don't think that the defense will be hung out to dry by the offense like they were last year... This offense won't be great, but it'll stay on the field longer than last years did...
