Same three in the east will be in the Running. Though I think UGA and UF will be the main 2 and UT will be 3rd at the beginning of the year (because Ainge is gone the media will invariable say you have no shot).
Florida will have thier typical media lovefest and Georgia has the chance to begin the year with a lofty ranking (if we get past Hawaii). Everyone one should know that these are and will be the top 3 in the east and the games between us will decide who goes to Atlanta.
In the west it gets really crazy. LSU will have talent but will have hot headed Perilloux (sp?) leading them. Auburn loses Cox which could be good or bad, Arkansas loses McFadden, MSU actually won some games. It's to hard to call at this time but my guess is it is LSU or AU in the west.
My guess UGA over Au in the Dome.
But hey. I am biased.
