In the West, the three top rated RB groups and top three OLs are the same teams. Surprise!

Georgia tops out both in the East. UTe at #2 in RBs. Do they have a returning RB other than Hurd?

Enjoyed the story, Jess.

On talent alone our WR situation will likely be higher by years end, if Kiffin can pull off the same miracle as last year with Sims at QB we'll see a rise there as well. Basically this tells me Bama, LSU and Georgia are the most talented teams and the differentiator will be coaching - I like our odds there.

Yep, we are depending on some unknowns living up to their potential. But it is interesting to see the divisional breakdowns. I really believe Tennessee is going to make some noise this season in the East. I'm glad we get them at Bryant-Denny this year.

Great article! Thanks for the hard work. I find it interesting where these rankings put Auburn. Most people are picking them 1 or 2 in the West, but according to this breakdown, which I respect a lot, they have middling talent this year. I guess if anyone can whip that defense into shape it'll be Muschamp, but he's got his work cut out for him.
