#10, for those who don't want context and only want a number. Interesting that we are the highest ACC team, and we play #s 11, 12, 13, and 14. Here's our write-up, along with the team directly below us:
10. Georgia Tech
Paul Johnson’s Yellow Jackets have become a bit of a trendy pick this offseason. Finishing the season with a win at Georgia, a close call against Florida State and a victory over Mississippi State in the Orange Bowl gives Georgia Tech momentum not seen in years. The formula for success will remain the same; grind yards out on the ground, mix in a surprise pass here and there and have the defense force some turnovers. Don’t expect much to be different this season.
11. Georgia
You’d be hard-pressed not to label the Bulldogs as the most complete team in the SEC East and the class of the division — even as Missouri has one the last two titles in that part of the conference. Can, though, UGA — finally — take that step up to the next level and not only actually win a conference title but be a contender on the national stage? One thing’s for certain: if they don’t, the fan base no longer has Mike Bobo to blame for whatever woes befall the program.

How can you call UGA complete without a QB? I think Tenn has some horses too.
TN is #2 on my list of teams I really need to see fall flat on their faces. Was a tossup for #2 between them and Arkansas.
Agree on the QB situation in Athens. The fact that Lambert has a shot at starting should instill something other than confidence in that fanbase.

Seriously, I cannot understand the Auburn love at all.

I think this has is a little too high on the stalk. We lost too many skill players on O for us to be as efficient as we were last year, imho. We're a top 20 team, I honk, but 15 - 20 would be where I'd bet us smart.
Now, watch: we'll win 12 games and play for the MNC. All I have to do is make a bet or two on my rating and we're a lead pipe cinch.

I agree with you. The only thing I think they all realize that many of us forget is that those guys don't have to worry about class. Several years ago, it was verified that at least one running back graduated AllBarn without being able to read.....
