Vol For Eternity
Football is creeping closer and as the new season approaches I figured I would go through each conference and make my predictions for each team. I did by research and I tried my best to pick some upsets to make it more realistic. Also I figured I'd make some predictions for each team. You don't have to agree with me but this is how I see the SEC turning out in 2016.

1. LSU Tigers: 11-1(7-1)
Losses: Arkansas
1. Alabama Crimson Tide: 11-1(7-1)
Losses: LSU

SEC Championship:
LSU over Tennessee
Bold predictions for each team:
Alabama-
•Alabama will struggle at QB all season but will still win 11 games due to the immense talent at other positions
•The defense will be just as good as last season despite losing some key players
Arkansas-
•RB play will be just as good as last years with Rawleigh Williams and Devwah Whaley
•The Hogs defense will be Top 5 in the SEC
Auburn-
•QB play will be significantly improved
•The D-Line will be one of the SEC's best
Florida-
•QB play will struggle the few weeks of the season but will pick up as the season goes along
Georgia-
•Jacob Eason will be good but won't be as good in his Freshman year as many think
•The secondary will emerge as the SEC's best
Kentucky-
•The WR corps will be one of the best units on the team but their talent won't be shown much due to QB play
LSU-
•Leonard Fournette will win the Heisman Trophy as LSU claims the SEC and a berth in the Playoffs
•Brandon Harris will be much improved
•The secondary will be one of the best in the country
Mississippi State-
•By seasons end, Nick Fitzgerald will be one of the SEC's best QB's
Missouri-
•The offensive line will give up the most sacks in the SEC
•The defense will be one of the SEC's best
Ole Miss-
•Chad Kelly will have a very good season but not as good as 2015 due to so much talent leaving
•The RB's will struggle
South Carolina-
•QB play will be improved enormously, McIlwain will assert himself as the starter
•The offense will be better than expected but the defense will struggle
Tennessee-
•The WR corps will be improved, along with Dobbs accuracy
•Barring injuries the D-Line will be one of nations best
Texas A&M-
•Trevor Knight won't be as good as many think
Vanderbilt-
•Vandy will start the season 6-2
•They will upset one of the big 3 in the East(Florida, Georgia, Tennessee)
