SEC Preseason Predictions: East​

From CFN

The SEC doesn’t have Texas and Oklahoma quite yet, but as is, it’s still the nastiest football conference in college football with the SEC West an almost unfairly fantastic division.

Can Georgia replace enough parts and get back into the championship mix? With a schedule that misses Alabama and Texas A&M, maybe.

Can Alabama sidestep all of the landmines on a schedule that would be a total nightmare for just about anyone else?

How about all the 50/50 games with an improved Mississippi State, a stronger Tennessee, and resurgent Florida and LSU teams all likely to bring even more. South Carolina, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Auburn should all be dangerous enough to beat just about anyone on any given day, and …

Welcome to life in the SEC. There will be twist, turns, and a few crazy upsets.

After a wee bit of a down year overall – forgetting who played in the College Football Playoff National Championship – this level of play should be much higher across the board, making the 2022 SEC predictions for every game that much harder.

Spurrier had us consistently in the Top 4 during the good years (with Shane's recruits) when Richt, Fulmer, and Meyer were in the mix, so I will say this is a good sign if we live up to expectations.

It's all in the execution, of course, but I expect Clayton's defense to be improved barring any serious injuries.

Not sure about Satt's offense, but I am hoping we see more of Shane's recruits on both sides of the ball stepping up early and playing to bring us victories.
