Gridiron Gurus 2011-2012
The Guru's Locks of the Week (NCAA Edition)
SEC WEST
(1) LSU--Just at the right place at the right time, enough experienced talent in the inexperienced but talented SEC West, and they have the right schedule.
(2) Auburn--Repeat to ATL is attainable, but this year AU travels to the SEC Champ roadblock, Baton Rouge. Coaching and defense gets it done this year for the Real Tigers.
(3) Alabama--Lost 3 best players on offense, but while they have enough talent in the tank to make a run at ATL, they just don't have the right players at the right positions to make this dream a reality.
(4) Arkansas--Key talent at key positions, but the defense is not strong enough to compete for a SEC West title.
(5) Mississippi State--Typical season in the SEC West with the Mississippi teams at the bottom.
(6) Ole Miss--Ditto.
SEC EAST
(1) UGA--Aaron Murray is just too damn good in a wide open East. UGA rights the ship in 2011.
(2) Tennessee--Dooley has his team heading for glory in the near future, just not enough eggs to put in the SEC Champ basket quite yet.
(3) South Carolina--Two extremely dynamic players on offense in Lattimore and Alshan, but Garcia will fox it up and the defense remains a weak area.
(4) Florida--Will Muschamp wishes he was back in the beautiful Texas Hill Country.
(5) Kentucky--Just don't have it to compete.
(6) Vanderbilt--Great baseball team.
SEC AWARDS
SEC Off. POY--Aaron Murray (UGA) (Best QB in nation)
SEC Def. POY--Barkevious Mingo (LSU)
SEC Freshman of the Year--Trevon Reed (AU)
SEC COY--Derek Dooley (Tenn)
SEC CG -- LSU 24, UGA 21
BCS Champ--No SEC team will finish undefeated. Old Big 12 rivals Texas and Nebraska, who benefits from a weak Big 10, meet in the BCS Championship, with Texas coming out on top 31-27.
