http://blogs.ajc.com/mark-bradley-blog/2010/12/13/if-uga-cant-win-the-sec-east-next-season-thats-it-for-richt/This was pretty well written and while I agree that Murray is the class of the east by ability and that South Carolina is beatable, Georgia has as many concerns IMO as unknown quantity Florida, especially if DT/NG John Jenkins doesn't qualify or RB Caleb King becomes inelligible.
Stephen Garcia with Marcus Lattimore and Alshon Jeffries are known commodities. Murray with either King and/or true freshman Isaiah Crowell along with TE Orson Charles and an entire returning (yet maligned) OL might not be able to get it done unless it toughens up as a unit.
I like Carolina's chances much better to repeat in the East...especially with Garcia, whom despite all of the suspensions and some costly decisions on the field, is a crafty risk taker with a nice touch, some zip and a very gutty competitor. Advantage Carolina.
And not to forget Tennessee who started out 2-6 only to get bowl elligible with Tyler Bray at the helm, though they still are probably a year away as a threat yet ahead of schedule and improving.
