10 Bold Predictions-- SEC

10) For a second straight season a player from outside of the SEC will win the Heisman Trophy.

• Georgia QB Aaron Murray will get the invite to New York City, but he will not bring home the hardware for the SEC.

9) Missouri QB James Franklin will not run for 1,000 and throw for 2,500

• He's not in the wide open Big 12 anymore. Missouri will have success moving the ball at times, but not enough success for Franklin to repeat this amazing feat.

8) Mississippi will put a scare into one of the big dogs in the conference.

• I don't see the Rebels winning a conference game, but they will compete in one of their four tough road games against Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia and LSU. 

7) Auburn's sophomore QB Keihl Frazier will show glimpses of Cam-esque ability.

• Frazier is at least a year from a putting together a great season, but a couple of great, game-winning drives will give the Auburn faithful a lot of hope. 

6) The Mad Hatter's luck will run dry and crazy coaching move will blow up in his face.

• Les Miles is known for making... unconventional coaching decisions that somehow work. One of those unconventional decisions will blow up in his face and knock his team out of the National Title hunt.

5) Tennessee will begin their road back to national prominence.

• They have four marquee games Florida, @Georgia, Alabama and @ South Carolina, by winning two of those games they will grab the attention of the college football world.

4) South Carolina will underachieve again.

• Spurrier has a great defense, a solid QB and a new offensive plan, but he won't win 10 regular season games.

3) A team from the East will win the conference.

• Florida, Georgia and South Carolina have closed the gap on the West and this is the year they will unseat the West.

2) Georgia QB Aaron Murray will lead over A.J. McCarron and Alabama.

• Murray will outperform McCarron in the SEC Title game and cement his position as a Heisman Finalist and his team's position as the cream of the crop in the SEC.

1) The SEC will not be represented in the BCS National Championship Game.

• The competitiveness of conference play will result in every SEC team losing a game, while the PAC 12 and Big 12 will produce undefeated champions. Despite ESPN best efforts they can not get the 1-loss SEC champ voted in over undefeated BCS conference champs, in turn ESPN will pretend the National Title Game was cancelled.
