Don't look now, but the SEC does not look great this year.

Bama looks just like they did last year- when Bryce Young was hurt. He's not coming back to save their bacon this year. LSU sucks. A&M sucks (again). OM was lucky to beat Tulane today. Both of the teams that smoked UF and USC last week barely escaped today against lesser opponents. UGA won't play anyone until the week before Thanksgiving, so who knows how good they are? I'm sure they're really, really good, but are they as good as the past two seasons? TBD.

Let's hope that our game today was an aberration, because the SEC is there for the taking.

That's what I was thinking. Even Georgia stumbled at the beginning of their game even though they finished strong.

The SEC has not been impressive.

BDV is correct, and I concur with Vinnie.

Need to remember that the SEC has never really been super strong top to bottom.  It's just that we have been dominant at the top. 

My opinion is that NIL/portal are changing that.  Bammer can no longer buy the best players under the table when everyone else can openly do so.   Ditto Smart, who learned from Saban.

It's a change for the best, IMO.
