Or the guys who used to be 250 lb. HS linemen are now 280 lb. HS linemen because of vastly increased weight training earlier in their careers.

This is possible and DPE is special. But freshman Glenn Irons is redshirting and probably isn't as shifty as DPE but is at least as fast. And that's basically what we've gone to in WR recruiting - big receivers like Enunwa and short speedsters that can score from anywhere. I bet we can find another one in the next four years.

True. But what does any of that have to do with which teams are the best this year?

This. Add it Alabama over a decent-looking West Vriginia team. The rest is full of terrible teams - not to mention no road games. this would be a good argument if other conferences had good wins in or our of conference. some teams do from other conferences, but there are few. i did not look at them all, but probably no more than two or three per conference, if that. i mean, wiscy is not even considered a good out of conference win for an SEC team, evidenced by it being ignored in the above posts. You are very right. That is why absolutely every fan or "expert" who proclaims the SEC as the greatest conference in the world right now doesn't have a friggen clue. NOBODY knows how good any conference is. That is also why multiple teams in a 4 team play off from any one conference is just total BS. i have softened my stance a little. and thank you. i agree that no one knows. it is all up to the "eyeball" test. but, at the same time, we are pretending that the sec has not proved themselves year after year. is the gap huge? no. but they win when it counts more times than not. and for the biggest game of them all, they are at least there year in and year out (blame that on bias if you want, but every team at the start of the year has a chance to get there, excluding 2004 auburn). so, when you have limited and imperfect information, you go on trends. but i am just not worried because this will either work itself out, or at least a lot of teams (including neb.) will have a chance to prove themselves. and that is all you can ask for. espn and sec are loathsome, but they are not the boogeymen we want them to be. and finally, that is the playoff picture right now. and ole miss is at best a head scratchier (i wonder if that was not the committee trying to tell us something about how they think? wins matter more the respectable losses? i mean, neb. did pretty good with just one respectable loss, and not any good wins), but that will certainly work itself out. quite nicely i imagine as well. just my imo. I knew there was one other team I was forgetting (Wisconsin). But they looked really bad early in the year, we minus Gordon for the second half of that game and had a QB that couldn't throw. So, no, I don't think that was really a good win. I actually feel the same way you do. They are the best conference but not by as much as many like to think. But their grip seems to be slipping to some degree. They were 5-3 against other Power 5 conference teams in bowl games last year which is good but they were 3-0 in games where the SEC team had a better record going in, 1-1 in games where the teams had the same record and 1-2 in games where the SEC team had a worse record entering the game - the one win being over a 10-4 Duke team that had aTm down by 21 at one point. So they benefited from some favorable match-ups although you can argue that they eared them by winning regular season games. Add in the fact that their two "best" teams both lost their BCS games last year and I think it's fair to question if the gap is that much if any anymore. And they play scant few Power 5 teams out of conference so we don't have a lot to go by this year. They are 4-2 against other Power 5 teams this year with wins against KState and Wisconsin who both played terribly, a Texas Tech team that is coming apart at the seams and Clemson. They lost to an Indiana team that is winless in B1G play and Oklahoma. There are a few more OOC games yet to come and then bowl matchups where we'll find out more.

Bussey said trips are bonding time with his dad. They like to travel and watch different games. Says people shouldn't worry so much. In addition to his visit this weekend, he's going to take an official visit here after the season.

This. Add it Alabama over a decent-looking West Vriginia team. The rest is full of terrible teams - not to mention no road games.

Probably more not remembering them that it didn't happen but there is a lot more room for error on pistol/shotgun snaps than under center.

Bo also said it was his call on being conservative last year. We ended up too conservative and it hurt us. So it was his fault we were terrible last year and (largely) his credit that we are pretty good this year.

Notre Dame, Virginia and North Carolina are his favorites.

USC offered and they are his new leader followed by West Virginia.

Kentucky leads followed by UCF. Moving on.

I'm not really looking for a playoff birth. That's a long ways off. I'm more interested in how we finish the regular season, getting to the CCG and winning the B1G. Whatever happens past that is largely out of our control and I'll worry about that if (when ) we get there.
