2007 SEC Football Thread

[MyTurn2Raise]

hats off to Georgia who looked damn impressive this weekend

Only Texas held Oklahoma St to less points last year (10) and the Pokes brought back nearly everyone on offense.

Tennessee didn't look that bad...Cal looked really good

LSU's defense looked awesome, but their o-line needs some work if they want to win the title

Auburn looks exactly like last year

not much else can be told based on the lack of major match-ups

Auburn only -7, that surprises me. Alabama will not lose to Vandy. Its not happening fellas. Just remember that Mike "deer in headlights" Shula is not longer our football coach.

My preseason index has Auburn -2 v USF. USF is actually rated higher, the home field flips it.

Have Bama -6/-6.5 @ Vandy....should be a struggle, but Bama expected to win.

[barryc83]

MT2R, Im a sports gambling fish. So is a 5 point differential between your system and the actual line huge? Is that a >1 unit bet for you?

[MyTurn2Raise]

that's a huge difference....that is ridiculous...especially since it crosses the 3 and half the 7

it should never happen, but occassionally does early in the year in college football

Happened last week as well as I thought Auburn should've been -8.5 instead of -13.5
Mine was better last week. Hopefully, it will be better this week as well.

Overconfident? I think Alabama is going to win, but there is def a chance they could lose.

No Im not overconfident, it probably wont be a blowout, but we will win. Theres always a chance to lose. A lot of people (blogs, boards, etc) have hyped this as a Vandy upset. Is Vandy significantly better this year, because I think Bama is. People (not saying you) who didnt watch Bama games dont really understand how bad of a coach Shula was and how much of an improvement Saban and staff are. We finished 6-7 last year and still beat Vandy.

[MyTurn2Raise]

Vandy is better than last year, but I still don't see them finishing above 5th in the SEC East

TFG, AS, other UFers,

how did UF look? any analysis on our D?

[/ QUOTE ]

Tebow was amazing. Bubba looks faster than ever and fully recovered from the leg injury. Riley Cooper is a huge
deep ball threat. Biggest thing was Keshtawn Moore, he looked like a new man. If he can run like that, then
no team can stop us. David Nelson, Louis Murphy played well, obviously so did Percy & CI. We're absolutely loaded.
Potentially deeper than last year.

D looks young as they should be but we have so much talent back there. Spikes & Doe were ferocious, looked ready for
the SEC. Harvey had 2 sacks despite all double teams. Cunningham looked good at the other DE. Estop & McMillan
did not get any push at DT which is worrisome, the young guys played well(Antwine) when they got in there.
As for the secondary, Kyle Jackson for some reason still is
really slow to react and got pulled for Dorian Munroe. Major
Wright looked good and also played safety some. Urban was very happy with his play. We should be fine there.
They didn't have very much action since WKU didn't go down
the field. Haden(true frosh) looked very good at CB but got
burnt really bad one time. WP-L looked just OK. Corners are
a big concern. Got to get better.
Jeremy Finch is insanely fast and had a huge special teams
play, he may be able to play in some nickel packages.

Kicking game all around looks fine. No worries this year.

I heard that the CB play wasn't as great. KJackson is surprising, I was hoping he'd be okay given that he's a veteran and been on the team for a while.

Also, scared about our DL. I'll be there at the troy game next week to see them.
