Well, I got my Crimson Tide season tickets in yesterday and took a tour of the stadium this morning to see where exactly my seats are. My seats are right beside the tunnel - if I don't get a bunch of high fives from the team, I'll be on TV, for sure... It's almost here, folks!

So... any predictions?

I'm thinking Florida and Oklahoma again...  :-/

Well at least my beloved Huskers are back in pre season rankings!

I'm with you Brad. OK is gonna be tough this year. I gotta someone find a way to make it to Lincoln and get tickets for that game. It's been too long.

They could very well be right about the Huskers, but I'm confused at what exactly happened to make anyone think they will be better than Mizzou this year.  Again, Mizzou lost a lot of players so I kind of get it, but it seems like the big name schools always work there way back to the top of the rankings at the beginning of each year.  Oh well, I kind of like not having any expectations this year for a change.

OCTOBER 9th, THURSDAY NIGHT, ESPN. Bring it Koehler!

Ole Miss at #10!   This thread is going to be a lot more dull without Tracy this year.   :-/

I'm thinking Ole Miss is getting a little bit too much hype for their own good... I'm predicting they'll lose their first SEC game (@ SC).

I had actually planned to go to the game, until I looked at the calendar and realized I leave for Chicago like the next day so I am not attending. Really f'n bummed about it. It's probably better that way, at least my liver and checkbook will be thankful. I already know I will be absofuckinglutly destroyed that night if I went. Plus I do not like the idea of potentially spending a night in a Columbia jail. It would happen. ESPN, HD, Couch, and some brew will be the plan that night.

My #5 BAMA vs. #7 VTECH tickets are pretty much in the nose bleeds, but I'm still pretty pumped up to see this matchup. Chic-fil-a does an awesome, absolutely awesome job as a sponsor. And the Georgia Dome is great, too.

Going to be a TOUGH year for the DAWGS I think. Too many key players to replace...Georgia vs Florida could be a very painful this year... :-[

[Angry Ewok]

Yeah, but you know how Richt is... He'll have more success this year than he did last year, despite the position changes. I know the players win the games, but I've always felt Richt coaches ten-fold better when he hasn't gotten much media attention. And there's been zilch of that since the pre-season chatter last year.

Preseason rankings....about as useful as a dead hooker.

Great conversation piece.

Is there any chance we could have a separate Bama thread this year so I dont need to see Nick Saban's face every day?

great minds think alike  ;D

Yeah, but you know they will still be fun to watch!  :)

[Angry Ewok]

Nothing's gonna beat Tennessee @ Florida. My goodness.

[Angry Ewok]

Looks like Vtech is having fun...

...but wow is GTech underwhelming, or what? That shirtless photo does not say much about their strength and conditioning. Or maybe I just need glasses, or something.

Tennessee.  ;D ;D ;D
