Looking at the best Class of ’21 WRs in the SEC…

    Heisman Winner DaVonte Smith and Jaylen Waddle are gone. So is Florida standout Kadarious Toney. If we hadn’t already said goodbye to J’Marr Chase last year after he opted out of the 2020 season, he’s definitely not coming back now. Nor is Terrace Marshall, who was like God at the start of the season for LSU before he decided – in my words more than his – not worth getting injured for. Nor is Ole Miss’ Elijah Moore, Auburn speedster Anthony Schwartz and his fellow Tiger Seth Williams. But the class of 2021 has brought with it more and more talent. Sadly for the rest of the SEC, most of that talent is going to the SEC West:

A note to the incoming Alabama football athlete

  You wouldn’t know that a below-average sized, thinning-haired, 69-year old male who last played the game when your grandparents were alive, would be able to coax you – the giant among giant on the high school football stage – enough to go and play in a State that to most people would be one they wouldn’t want to visit, let alone live.   And yet year after year, the Pied Piper of Tuscaloosa brings the Gods of American High School into campus and gets them to sign on the dotted line. So here’s a letter to that class. You could replay this letter for many of the major programs, by the way. ***** If you come to Tuscaloosa, you’ll

Week 6 SEC Preview: LSU – Auburn and A&M-Arkansas highlight the show

This week it’s normal one of the craziest games on the SEC Calendar: LSU vs Auburn. We’ve had burning buildings, missed kicks at the end, last-second touchdowns and the end of Les Miles’ tenure. The Geaux Tigers have won 3 in row and 7 of the last ten, but of those last three games, they’ve been settled by a TOTAL of eight points. With no-one thinking about both sides seriously, it should be fun to at least watch, praying for a Big 12 game to once again break out in Jordan-Hare (if you’ve got the over!). Elsewhere, one of the SEC West’s most underrated rivalries takes place at Kyle Field instead of Arlington, which is unfortunate bearing in mind just how awesome

Alabama staying, Missouri rising: SEC Week 5 Rankings

It’s our weekly SEC Rankings. Honestly, they’ve gotten so hard right now because Auburn might be 1-4 if the SEC Officials had used their brains, but then again might be 4-1 if the SEC Officials had used their brains. Texas A&M might be 2-2 if Dan Mullen’s offense could defend Kellen Mond, and Alabama might be….oh wait…they look unbeatable at the moment. So here we go. Please note that past No.4, it’s basically a free-for-all until Vanderbilt….who are bottom. Alabama (5-0) The injury to Jaylen Waddle didn’t really slow down the Crimson Tide as they slaughtered Tennessee. Slade Bolden plugged in and put up 94 yards for just six catches. The rest of the Tide are awesome. Sure, there’s going
