Actually those 5 SEC teams in the top 10 are all SEC West teams. That's 5 of 7 in the West and I don't think the other two are all that bad either. If one of those 5 teams could make it out unscathed they should postpone the championship series and just anoint that team champion.

I looked at that and it has our schedule rank at 141. Now, how do you have 4 current top 10 teams on your schedule and end up with a 141 rank? Even Sagarin has us playing 3 top 10 teams, Mississippi at #15, Florida at #21 and Mississippi State at #28. I don't see Oregon, Fla St or Okie playing those kind of ranked teams.
I think the schedule rank is who the teams have played to date..

I remember someone saying we had the toughest division in all of sports yesterday. They say that every year don't they?

I do not believe that any team will go undefeated in the SEC -- East or West. There are a lot of good teams, but no great team that I have seen. This reminds me of how we were in 2009 -- I think someone pointed that out a few weeks ago. We are having to develop new understandings of what it takes to be successful and win. My prediction is that we will lose 1-2 games...but WHEN we beat AU we will win the West, beat USCeast in the SECCG and make it to the playoffs. Call me delusional...but that's how I see it.

I happen to think we will run the table, with very close games. It wouldn't surprise me if we lost one.

There are only 128 FBS teams how could we #141?
