this really has been an odd offseason and pre-camp year.

1. We won more games than our rival and went to a better bowl- and they are being congratulated for the best 6-6 season EVAHHHH
2. While we did struggle to end the season- this is a new year. Auburn was trending down last year- so was UPig. Why is there optimism for those programs to get better but not us?
3. SEC Media picks us 7th in the West

Have you ever seen a team picked to finish last the conference that had these types of players:

Tyler Russell- Maxwell Award, Johnny Unitas, and Walter Camp Award Watch list
LaDarius Perkins- Doak Walker Watch List
Dillion Day- Rimington Watch List
Gabe Jackson- Outland Award watch list
Deontae Skinner- Bednarik and Butkus Award list
Benardrick McKinney- Bednarik and Butkus list
Nickoe Whitley- Nagurski watch list

We've never had this many guys on watch lists in the preseason- and the media is predicting us to finish last...something isnt adding up
