Here's my take:

Central Florida - W (UCF is in some serious turmoil with no end in sight.)


At Georgia - W (Too many losses in key positions. You can't replace true leadership and experience.)

Alabama - W (Alabama's woes extend another year due to depth issues. Winning in Tuscaloosa last year gave this team enormous confidence given Bama's record in Tuscaloosa.)


Troy - W (Troy is a decent team, but last year was a fluke. Doesn't have the overall talent as the big boys.)

At Auburn - L (I would love USC to beat Auburn, but I don't see it happening. Even with their losses, someone will step up their play between now and then.)

Kentucky - W (Blowout! UK loses a lot of playmakers and just doesn't have the speed to keep up.)

Vanderbilt - W (Same as Kentucky.)

At Tennessee - L (Possible win though. Historically, USC has always played UT tighter in Knoxville than at home.)

At Arkansas - W (More than likely a win. Matt Jones is gone and you don't see players like him, but once every 10 years. USC's record is not good in Fayetteville though.)

Florida - L (I could be wrong, but I think this is going to be a loss. There's a lot of time between now and then though.)

Clemson - W (During Spurrier's press conference, a reporter mentioned to Spurrier that Clemson fans were chanting "We Want Spurrier!". Well, they will get to see him. For someone that's not familiar with our 100+ year rivalry with Clemson, he has educated himself quite nicely. Paybacks are hell.)

Total: 9-3 (Bowl win included)
5-3 in the SEC

Well even though I do not really like him as a person, I think Spurrier is a great coach. I believe SC will win the SEC within the next 3 years. So by you thinking you guys will will 9 games this year that goes along with the way I've been thinking SC would do. I put alot of thought into SEC football, and with all the Coaching changes this past season man is it gonna be good this coming season. Win at Georgia,,,,,hmmmmm,,who knows??? But there is one thing I do know,,,,Steve Spurrier will build your program into a champion. One other thing I would like to say,,,ROLL TIDE ROLL!

I've hated Steve Spurrier my whole life as a coach, but I've always respected him as a person. :)

If you look at it, with UGA's talent last year we had them beat 16-0 at halftime. Then Coach Holtz would apply the brakes on the offense and try to ride the lead instead of padding it.

Yeah,we almost lost last year.
