ATLANTA The SEC kicks off its preseason football meetings this week. Heres one guys guess at what the most frequently asked questions will be. We threw in the answers for free.
1. Where in the world is Brent Schaeffer?
The Ole Miss faithful got some bad news this week when they learned the Tennessee transfer is in Californias College of the Sequoias still trying to become eligible. Even if he does, he may miss the beginning of fall practice in Oxford. Ole Miss really has no Plan B at quarterback.
2. Will the Auburn academic probe affect this season?
Probably not. But it needs to get resolved in a timely fashion or it will become an issue on the recruiting trail.
3. Is Phillip Fulmer really on the hot seat?
Nope. But it would help if the Vols beat nationally ranked California in the opener. Tennessee wont go 5-6 again, but if it does, the answer to this question a year from now will be yes.
4. Who starts at quarterback for LSU?
JaMarcus Russell is coming off surgery to his throwing wrist and a separated left shoulder. Matt Flynn is coming off a career game in the Peach Bowl. Ryan Perrilloux, the nations top QB recruit in 2005, is coming off a year on the bench. Les Miles needs to make a decision.
5. Wholl get the start at quarterback for Georgia?
Mark Richt says hes got it narrowed to four. We, and the Bulldog Nation, believe that number is actually two. Georgia can win a bunch of games with Joe Tereshinski III, but the Bulldogs will need something from freshman Matthew Stafford if they want to repeat as SEC champs.
6. Will Tyrone Prothro be back for Alabama?
No ones ruled out a return by the talented wide receiver, who suffered a horrific leg injury against Florida. If Alabama hopes to match last years offensive effort, it will need Prothro.
7. Is Arkansas going to quit running the ball and throw it every down?
Not a chance. Under new coordinator Gus Malzahn, the Hogs will spread the defense. But with running backs like Darren McFadden and Felix Jones, Arkansas isnt about to become Texas Tech.
8. After beating Tennessee and Florida and almost knocking off Georgia last year, can South Carolina contend for the SEC East title?
Steve Spurrier just wants to win more than he loses, and for this team, 7-5 sounds just about right. The Gamecocks appear to be a year away maybe two from contender status.
9. How much will Urban Meyer use freshman quarterback Tim Tebow at Florida?
This is Chris Leaks team. The senior is poised to have a big year in his second season running Meyers offense. Tebow will have his moments as he gets ready for 2007.
10. Vanderbilt went 5-6 with Jay Cutler at quarterback. So what happens without him?
The Commodores would be thrilled with another 5-6 season, but when the first two games are with Michigan and Alabama, five wins seem unlikely.
