Ole Miss got one vote.Florida was picked to win the East and the overall SEC championship.Tuberville said he was somewhat surprised to be picked at the top with ucertainty at quarterback, where sophomore Kodi Burns and junior college transfer Chris Todd will compete for the starting job, but he acknowledged that LSU also has questions at quarterback.The Tigers, Tuberville said, can make a run at it if players deal with the expectations in the right way."The experienced guys will understand that's more talk than anything and has nothing to do with reality," Tuberville said. "We have a lot of room for improvement. We have two new coordinators who really don't have a clue about this league."You have to have a plan. We have a great plan going into two-a-days trying to get the most out of this team. If we can get the most out of this team, we'll give it a run."Here is the voting breakdown:WESTERN DIVISION1. Auburn (48) 992. LSU (21) 1203. Alabama 2284. Mississippi State 2995. Ole Miss 3386. Arkansas 386EASTERN DIVISION1. Florida (45) 982. Georgia (23) 1213. Tennessee (2) 2224. South Carolina 2665. Kentucky 3566. Vanderbilt 407
The preseason curse is geared more towards the team picked to with the SEC overall, which doesn't bode well for Florida.
Tebow likes Philipino fore skin.That is all.
but the kid is a baller.
"We have two new coordinators who really don't have a clue about this league."Strong words...but very true!!
On a side note, Tommy Tuberville in his press conference said that If they had to go today that Burns would be the starter. Thank God.
