As i understand...Vandy and Florida are the only current "tier one" schools in the SEC.

....and the mighty AGS will soon make three!!

you should be grateful for the added academic boost to the storied 'ol league.

As I understand, the SEC, as a whole, is already better than the Big XII academically. So, welcome aboard!

I wasn't trying to be a smart azz. Just visited here after A&M was going into the SEC and some people were saying how long would it be before they could compete for Titles. They're better than any team in the East THIS year. It changes from year to year. It's not usually this lopsided.

I think he has a point about the east.

None of those schools are very good this year.

Our pass defense sucks but none of the east schools are particularly great at it and we can run on just about anyone.

I do think if you were playing in the SEC this year, 7-5, 8-4 would be likel, depending on your competition from the east

Our pass defense is horrible...it will be a totally different type of game in the SEC vs the Big 12.

"tier one" schools?

the SEC ?

your academic-tires are virtually deflated.

you dismal academic hacks should covet and welcome our "tier one" academic stature. it just may allow you to piggyback on our reputation and cred in the halls of academia.

I think he's using "tiers" to describe football only, not academics. In which case, I think you pretty much nailed it.

Take it to the academic board. We're talking football here.

..then do not employ the phrase "tier one" sad-sack. take it home bozo!

tier one actually has meaning ....and it does not refer to any "football" silliness, in the least.

sspanzer, relax a little. I hear talking heads talk about quality of programs in terms of tiers all the time. Plus, the term "tier" may not even be used with respect to Florida and Vandy academics--those are AAU designations.

Guys, the word "tier" can only refer to ONE thing. ONE. Gosh.

I think we'd be the fourth best team in the sec this year and third if we had Arkansas at home and didn't choke.

Next year will be tough though because Florida and Auburn will be better and we will lose four of our five best players on offense if Christine Michael leaves early. I think our new QB will be good but no one on our roster can make up for Michael if he leaves early.

We will graduate 0 players from our OL, and have a great back coming in. I'm a lot more worried about losing several of our best players off an already poor defense.

if we lose players off an unimpressive defense..can that be all that bad? or can it be worse?

The D-coordinator needs to find productive players and put them on the field...regardless of their academic class.

there is always the 'ol rejoinder....wait till next year!

I'm aware of us losing a lot of players on defense, but since they aren't exactly dominating they are much more replaceable. You could assemble any set of defensive backs on our roster and I guarantee you they wouldn't rank worse than 120 in pass defense.

If we lose Michael and Gray, no freshman, unless it is Adrian Peterson's clone is going to come in and play at the level they are at right now.

it'll definitely suck to lose experienced guys like tfred, TJE, and hunter, but we've got a lot of youth on the depth chart that we can be excited about

offensive losses are gonna suck though, save for the o-line

I think that's probably about right. Unless Aubie slipped up on you. Speaking from experience,they are quite capable of doing that.

We have two great backs coming in. Don't think Marion Grice won't prove himself early.

Does Auburn have a strong passing game? If not, they dont beat A&M this year. I only ask because I havent seen them play a whole game yet this year.
