On the bright side for Kentucky the defense was able to hold onto that lead against a C-USA team.. so improvement?
If USM had any QB play at all, last week might have been really ugly for UK. I didn't see at all what I was expecting to see from the Cats.

I get AU, LSU and bama fans saying this, but MSU fans?

This MSU fan is duck riding the good teams in the West.

Agree with everything that you said for the first time in my 6 years otb.
I've gotta say that I agree with this more than anything else though.

MSU played better than any east team did last week.

lol...La Tech about to beat State this weekend
Posted on 9/6/17 at 2:53 pm to CockyTime
They lost to South Alabama last season didn't They? I wouldn't be shocked depending on what La Tech's offense looks like

I don't see how you could have USCe second and Missouri last when Missouri is the favorite this weekend.
This is how I see them finishing the season after what I seen in week one.
1.UGA
2.UF
3.Tenn.
4. Vandy
5. USC/UK/Missouri

Idk how good N Colorado is but we will see if yalls offense is decent. If y'all don't score more than 24 on a bad opponent then y'all should be really worried. If y'all score more than 24 we will just have to wait to get a better picture.

How in the hell do you see Florida being second in the east? I've never seen anything that sad offensively.
It was offensive.
1. uGa
Bunch of teams including SC, Ky, Tennessee, and Vandy fight for second
Moveable object vs immobile offense in the mizzou/uf game for last place.

Injuries are a part of it no doubt but something is systematically wrong with Shoop at Tennessee. The guy just didn't forget how to coordinate a defense after seeing him in person for 3 years at Vandy and turning in a top unit nationally at penn state. The struggles there are really hard to comprehend against all different styles of offense in their last 5 games.
UK - spread you out to run it over 600 yards allowed
Mizzou - throw it all over the yard 700 yards allowed
Vandy - pro style over 600 yards allowed
Nebraska - 318 yards allowed but were without QB and top WR
Ga Tech - triple option over 600 yards allowed, 535 rushing
The Florida game will be telling with how poor UF looked offensively against Michigan.

... and it's liable to be very fluid in the East this season. Things could change dramatically week to week.
I mean the division is not bad by national standards, but it's not good by SEC standards.
It is getting better right now though ... young players mainly. Coaches at Vandy and Kentucky are as good as they've had in awhile. Can't tell much about the guy at Mizzou just yet but if he is defensive minded you have to believe he'll get that ship righted eventually. I like mUSChamp - he's a perfect fit for SC but I'm biased. Butch is below Tennessee standards IMHO. Great recruiter but too much of a cheerleader and a shitty in-game motivator and manager. And McElwain ... he's just doesn't seem like a good fit at Florida. I'm not sure what it is about him but he has this air about him that seems out of place in Gainesville IMHO. I'm really not sure he is going to be able to handle the heat coming his way over the course of the next two seasons.
Nailed it.
I'm in wait and see mode on my dawgs. Defense looked all world but it wasn't a great offense they were facing... ND OL, WRs, and mobile QB should be a much better litmus test. Fromm handled himself well in an unexpected situation. Let's see how the next several weeks go. By the time week five rolls around we should have a much better idea on the east. For now, it's a lot of speculation on potentially deceptive samples.

Anyways ... the East is not a shite show by national standards but it is definitely not up to SEC standards.
I actually do look for a lot of improvement from the entire division as this season moves along though.
I do think the direction most of the teams in the East are headed towards is positive. Kentucky and Vanderbilt seem to be building something. USC is getting its second wind after Spurrier hung you guys out to dry. Georgia is recruiting well and if they get an OC could be a real nightmare.
I'm a bit shaky on Missouri. I really expected a lot more from their defense this year. As for Florida...
Two time defending division champion and I'm getting the dreaded stench of death about them. The defense is still good, but the offense is the drizzling poo.
They have the talent to play with anyone but it just looks like a team that is on the verge of a complete collapse.
