SEC 2014 Predictions: Gators & Rebels

3rd in the East: FLORIDA GATORS

Will Muschamp and the Florida Gators should have a much better season than last year. I mean it can’t get much worse. Hell, they could have a repeat of 2013. The Gators are a tough team to predict. I could see them finishing anywhere from 5th to 1st in the East, so I’ll go in the middle. Jeff Driskel is the veteran QB of the league this year. He has to stay healthy and play good football if the Gators want to win. Their D will keep them in games but it’s the O that will have to win the games. Florida has to have a stellar season for Muschamp to keep his job. And with their tough ass schedule I don’t see that happening. My real prediction is that UNC’s Larry Fedora will be their Head Coach in 2015. Love this video below too. 2 Florida players blocking each other in a loss against GA Southern. 

PREDICTION: 7-5 (4-4 in SEC)

 

3rd in the West: OLE MISS REBELS

Like I said in the last Prediction Post, 3rd & 4th Place came down to LSU and Ole Miss. LSU has finished ahead of Ole Miss 12 of the last 14 seasons. I don’t think it will happen this year. The Rebels have an experienced QB returning in Bo Wallace to go along with some of the best young talent in the conference with a year under their belt now. Ole Miss is a team that you can’t sleep on this year. They have the players and confidence to make a run in the West this year. Still don’t think they have quite enough to top Auburn and Alabama though. Either way this should be a successful year for the Rebs. HOTTY TODDY!!

PREDICTION: 9-3 (5-3 in SEC)
