I’m picking Lane to beat up on Dan. Dan looked sloppy in last season’s opener against Miami and Lane has some weapons too.

 

[OptimusPrimerib]

Muschamp is going to be really upset.

 

[PulaskiVolFan]

Kentucky beats Auburn simply because I believe their experienced OL is going to push Auburn's young DL around. Ky's OL, experience and style of play is going to be tough to be ready for in the 1st game. I don't think Nix is all that great either.

I picked UK over Auburn. The Mildcats have seemed to show a lot of heart the last few years and Auburn seems to be an under-achiever. Good combination for an upset. I'm under the impression that UK has a lot of returning starters, but that is a gut feeling and may be completely wrong.

After a crazy off-season, I wouldn't put much money on a single one of these games though. It could be wild.

 

[Concept]

Ole Miss over Florida. It's the only one with a shot.

Kentucky - Auburn is possible on paper, but I don't see it, personally. I think Kentucky is slightly overrated. No balance.
Tennessee - South Carolina is too close to call an "upset," although I think we'll win, and I will be "upset" if we lose.

I went with Ole Miss over UF

 

[Crazy Ivan]

No upsets in Week 1.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

KY over barn is the most realistic. The other underdogs don’t have enough talent compared to the favored team. Stoops is pretty good coach and has made KY a formidable opponent.

Only thing that will be upset is my stomach at 7:30 Saturday night! Butterflies just like every other season for the opener!

Last time Tennessee won on the road as a favorite was 2016 at Georgia. Great game

 

[Catbone]

The only game that will be close in the 4th qr will be Tennessee vs Scar and UK vs Auburn. And that's a fact.

 

[golfballs]

Last time we won South Carolina as a favorite was 2006

Last time Tennessee won on the road as a favorite was 2016 at Georgia. Great game

Since then we’re 2-12 in SEC road games

Vandy over T&M simply because it’s 2020.
