SEC Power Poll Ballot

 
The data is still fluid and the conference pecking order has yet to emerge.  Here are my continued guesses:
  1. Florida - Everybody is waiting to see Urb and the Gators utterly crush Kiffy and I wouldn't mind that result.  The most interesting thing about Saturday's game to me is watching Monte scheme against the spread.  Does the old man have some brilliant insight?
  2. Alabama - Bama struggled at times, but the numbers were still respectable at the end.  
  3. Ole Miss - Not sure if Southeastern Louisiana will put up much more of a fight than the open week did.
  4. LSU - The Tigers seem to be trying to figure it all out.  I continue to think they have talent and good coaching, but they look like a team groping around in the dark. 
  5. Georgia - The Dawgs rebounded well, but they are shaky.  Richt needs to stabilize things because Petrino has been eyeing this weekend's game since December.
  6. Auburn - I have a feeling that Gus Malzahn is going to make Auburn look very good all year.  They've played decent competition, but not a high end defense.  I haven't bought them yet, but I'm inching up to the check out line.
  7. Arkansas - Saturday is the biggest game of the Petrino era. 
  8. South Carolina - Gave up too many big plays Saturday, but can be encouraged by Garcia's progress. 
  9. Kentucky
  10. Vanderbilt
  11. Tennessee - Now that's the Crompton I remember. 
  12. Mississippi State - Mullen got some points again. but the Aubs tore up the State defense.  I think they have a shot in Nashville this weekend.

The Petrino Era at Arkansas or the Petrino Era in general?

Cause I'd argue there are numerous others that popped up at his previous 113 stops.


The Petrino Express...coming through Boulder/East Lansing in 2010!!!

Further fuel for the Georgia-as-a-gateway theory?

Ideally, Petrino would be in Boulder for next year's matchup and then back in Louisville in the future to play us again.

I have it on good authority that Bobby will be the head coach at SMU in 2020 for an unannounced series with the Mustangs.

PWD,
Good point about Monte. He hasn't really faced a true spread offense in the NFL except maybe some run-and-shoot stuff back in the earl 90s.

CU appears to be stuck with Yoda. Their finances are not the best. Must be a "CU" thing.
