Who has the best chance to win the SECW?

A&M plays Bama followed by Ole Miss so we will know where these teams stand after that. One of those teams will be in a bad spot after that. LSU benefits from not playing SECW teams while things get sorted out so it's quite possible they will control their own destiny. I think Bama/LSU or A&M/LSU is likely to determine the champion if LSU can beat SC and Florida. Also, which team will Arkansas pop and will Auburn or Miss State pop someone big?

If I had to take a shot at the most likely surprises I would say:

Arkansas pops Ole Miss
Auburn pops A&M
Miss State pops Bama

Although it's hard to fathom any of these situations, I think the styles and date of the schedule lend these situations to be big upsets to could shake the landscape of the West.

I don't think LSU would consider any of the November games a true upset so I would say the most likely upset that nobody believes in would be South Carolina...although that's also difficult to imagine.

For the record, I called on SEC rant Ole Miss' loss to Florida after they beat Bama. I based that prediction on play style and what I gathered from Kelly's decision making. I would not predict any of the above statements with as much confidence, but I think they are all examples of games that could be surprisingly tough.

If I had to put money on it, I would probably say Bama as of now is most likely to win the west. We will know much more in just a few weeks.
