None "scare" me. Oregon, Alabama, Auburn and Arkansas give me some angst looking ahead.

Losing to Oregon will not be the end of the world though, losing to an SEC team will be much worse.

I don't get the love for Oregon. They lose > half of their o-line and a lot of their defense front 7. They are gonna drop like a rock in the rankings next year.

Bama game will define the SECCG race. That's going to be a HUGE game next year. Possible 1 vs 2 matchup.

Oregon has Thomas and James back but they're O line going and two top recievers will be tough to have that offensive flow for the first game of the season.

As many times as Oregon rolled this past season they were still so much out of sync after a few weeks in the NC game.

I think our healthy defense will be alot more prepared then their offense will be.

Arky scares me right now, with our offensive struggles from the past season fresh on my mind. I think if we see drastic improvement in our offense, which we should, I see feeling much more comfortable come time for Arky. As of now though I could see them screwing us out of a perfect season.

Alabama. We beat Oregon & West Virginia handily.
Mississippi State could be a problem. LSU... National Champions.

I hope we'll do this to most teams this season.

Alabama and Oregon will be the closest and most stressful games, I think.

Thu, Sep 15 Mississippi St. at Starkville
Sat, Sep 24 West Virginia at Morgantown
Sat, Oct 01 Kentucky at Baton Rouge
Sat, Oct 08 Florida at Baton Rouge

Does anyone notice the "trap" game on that slate. Kentucky sandwiched between UWV and UF worries me. An it seems as though UK always plays LSU though.

I also don't like playing in Starkville on a Thursday night. The cowbells will drive you crazy.

Everyone always plays LSU tough. The testament of a good team is blowing open games that should be "tought".

First game of the year, you don't know what you are gonna get. Our fan base thought LSU would beat the shite out of UNC last year, and UDub the year before.

Pro style - big - sling shot arm quarterback (2 each), lightning fast receivers, offfensive coordinator who knows how to use both, best head coach in the country, proven SEC defense, best running backs in the SEC,..... afraid of who??????? We beat the snot out of everybody

Tennessee. Not really scared though, just think they'll have strong motivation to want to beat us.


They are "counting" on beating us.. unfortunately for them, they don't know how to count so we will win.

Seriously though...Oregon has a major disadvantage going into the game. We know the things they will run because they have the same Coordinators and have about the same Philosophy every year. They will have no clue what our offensive scheme will be.

Bama and Miss St. will be the 2 harder ones. Yes, we say this every year with Miss St. but now they have an outstanding coach with a defense that will have high expectations.

Four of our five SEC West opponents should be pretty solid. Not a whole lot of people are giving much love to Florida, but the Gators should be much improved on offense and still solid on defense. The good news is we get them at home.

West Virginia could be tough, only because they will be fired up to be playing a top 5 team at their place.

We've got a pretty stout schedule, but I think we still have a good season and will get it started with a huge win in Dallas.
