If you can stomach it

Mark Bradley offers his thoughts on the SEC East in 2012. I am afraid that we’ll be able to beat UGA and then lose to LSU and Arkansas. Oh well, still going to Baton Rouge. 2 weddings next fall and neither is on October 13. Here I come!

Kind of a typical AJC piece I think

I don’t think there’s any doubt that UGA has the easier row to hoe, but there’s nothing we can do about it now (and for mercy’s sake no reason to jaw about it with them anymore, either!).

We should be proud of that first bullet point.

Leading the SEC by a wide margin in Academic Honor Roll — well done!

I thought that would warm GM's heart

to see academics focused so prominently.

Comedy.Gold.

It’s true. LOL I’m going to fanshot the link to a Dr. Saturday post. I am laughing so hard. I remember when the Clemson fans made fun of Taneyhill for being a loudmouth punk, and they loved to get on Stephen Garcia. Kelly is Moe-Ron.

That's a tough 4 game opening slate

out of the box there, RJ. The Pirates could be 1-3 as easily as 3-1.

Breaking in a new QB at Williams-Brice is a certain loss for us.

It’ll be an ugly as hell game if our defense continues their improvement and Lattimore ain’t right.

Damn enter key.

But the Gamecock D will shut us down as we figure who in the hell is our starting QB.

So. Miss is going to have a down year replacing alot of talent across the board and adjusting to what Johnson is doing.

No idea what the UNC game will bring but its at their place so I’ll chalk it to them.

2-2 at best really.

Backend though is a breeze with a some crappy teams like Memphis, UAB and Tulane that all have new coaches and are rather talent deprived.
UCF, Navy and Marshall are tossups right now but all could be won.
Houston is going to have a down year losing Keenum and Sumlin to A&M.
UTEP is well UTEP.

7 to 8 wins looks like a good thing to me right now.
