What I Think I've Learned This Week

Another week down. Another week of predictions shot. So why not try again.

OLE MISS
1) I don't think there is a worse tackling defense in the SEC, SunBelt, SWAC, or even the Pac-10.
2) How bad would this offense be without Seth Adams? He's looks like one of the best passers in the SEC right now.

UGA
1) There offense is suspect. Stafford's streaky and the running backs are a solid but not scary group.
2) They have a lot of speed on defense. Will be hard to score on. Play with a lot of discipline.

FLORIDA
1) Not as elite as last year.
2) Not on the same level as LSU. (Sadly)
3) They do have tons of speed all over the field.
4) Passing game has a lot of issues. Tebow is not very accurate on long throws and relies on the receiver to come to the ball. He missed several mid range completions against the Rebels. Keeps his completion percentage up by throwing a lot of short range and safe completions.
5) Will get upset by someone this year. My guess at this point is South Carolina.

LSU
1) I hate LSU so I hate saying this. They are the tops of college football right now. I do not see them loosing to anyone. South Carolina looks like the best team in the East so far and they decisively beat them. I don't think Southern Cal, Oklahoma, Florida, or West Virgina would have a chance. Pray for Tulane this weekend.

BAMA
1) They are an improving team and will get better each week. Would much rather face them earlier in the season, like UGA did, than later in the season, like say an Auburn.

KENTUCKY
1) Great offense. Will have a solid season but as soon as Andre Woodson has a bad game, and it will happen, they will have a terrible loss. If and when he has a poor game they can get beat by anyone.

MSU
1) Appears to have a very solid defense. Lots of depth and rotate players in and out. Guys who were not even on the second string pre-season depth chart played extensively and made plays early in the first quarter.
2) Had a very impressive goal line stand where they held on first and goal from the one. Shows they will be difficult to run the ball on.
3) Have intercepted their opponents in the the opponents first drive for a touchdown in three straight games. Not really an observation but a crazy stat.
