I admit that Alabama is the best team. If only we kept Nick...

That said, teams wishing to be Nationally relavent, they need to win their conference championship first.

we were the best last year, this year who knows Oregon, stanford , The Ohio state university, and possibly georgia could be the best
 
Bama is the King until someone knocks them off. I want to see the SEC's Championship run end as much as the next guy, but I don't see it anytime soon.
 
Oh, look, an OSU coach being a douche. What are the odds.

Urban Meyer's will to win burns with such competitive fire that he won't allow anyone to stand in his way on the recruiting trail. Including, evidently, his former school and a former assistant coach.
Outkick the Coverage has learned from sources in New York that Meyer and Ohio State turned in Florida assistant coach Brian White for an alleged improper "bump" violation related to the recruitment of Curtis Samuel, a running back/defensive back from Erasmus Hall High School in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Investigations into Ohio State's complaint this spring uncovered no wrongdoing, the sources said, but Samuel subsequently revealed Florida no longer is in his top five schools — while OSU is.
Meyer's willingness to turn in a former coach — one he hired — as well as the program he led for six seasons is unheard of in college athletics. Indeed, no one Outkick the Coverage talked with could recall a former coach turning in his former program and a former assistant coach.
A bump violation — a secondary NCAA offense — prohibits contact between coaches and players during non-contact periods of the recruiting calendar. An email to Ohio State seeking comment was not immediately returned Tuesday night.

I love football rankings which base their entire premise off of what happened last year. If that was the case, MSU wouldn't have been near .500 last year, but undefeated.
 
I don't see it that way. The big hit is Le'Veon Bell. I get that. The OL is healthy, Maxwell had a lot of dropped passes, and the receivers have a year under their belt. Having Dan Rouchar gone as the OC is addition by subtraction. We have four quality QB's. How the recievers go, is how the offense will go.

Yes, they lost Gholston and Adams on defense. But the defense is to the point where they just reload. The linebackers are the best in the B1G.

I don't know about that. You have a couple of decents guys still left. But the quality needs to be higher for you guys to keep your current level. That hasn't happened the past few years. You can only coach up some many 2*s before others gather more talent and pass you by. After this year, your defense will take a hit.

They have the best linebackers in the B1G. They have close to the best secondary in the B1G. The defensive line is pretty good. Depending on who you read or listen to, the feeling is that the defense will be as good if not better than last year.

The offense was horrible. You need to score more than 20 points a game. 5 of their 6 losses were by a total of 13 points. Those games were all in the B1G. I just don't see it happening again. The schedule shapes up nicely in 2013 and 2014. 2015 has a brutal schedule with every decent team we play will be on the road. I can't tell you how disappointed I'll be if MSU doesn't win at least 10 games this year and next. And it wouldn't surprise me if we were 6-6 in 2015.

I know MSU has a great defense this year, there is no questioning that. What I am saying is related to your "reload" comment. I don't see the current level staying the way it is past this season (the current seniors make your defense what it is). That is my own view on the matter and could be wrong.
 
The schedules are out for most of 2016 and 2017.I think Furman will get dropped as there are 13 games listed in 2016.
