Vast experience/talent where it counts, up front. OL has two great players in Theus and Pyke and four returning starters plus the Te's. Chubb was maybe the best RB in the SEC @ year's end. Nobody in the league has offensive potential to match. Defense has a nightmare for opposing offenses on the edges in Jenkins and Floyd. But the biggest dynamic is the staff is energized and the new coaches are not in the excuse making business. And this is the right year to catch Bama. @ home, early and their offense was gutted, losing 9 starters. Some how, some way Auburn just keeps catching breaks with the rules for illegal downfield blocking extended over. It was never the no huddle, it's the opportunity to cheat that the high school coaches like Malzahn, Freeze and so forth brought with them. A QB who can run some and then 30% of your plays are blocked like runs then turn to pass plays (big ones) @ or just beyond the LOS. You hit half of them and that is 28 gimmie points. Per game. It appears the run is over @ USC under Spurrier. No Clemson and Tech won theirs last year. UF is years away. Foley has screwed the Gator with a huge help from Machen. The Mizzou coach maybe be the best pure coach in the SEC, leaving recruiting out of it but they are a souped up Vandy talent wise.
Keys are UT and Auburn games. LSU is shaping up as the monster in the West. They have TALENT! 16 starters back. 11-1 regular season then winner take all matchup vs 11-1 LSU in Atlanta. That's gonna be hard. Fournette behind that big ole line.
