I know all of you have been anxiously awaiting the latest installment of the blog, but no worries people, we are here to finish a look at the SEC. Just to clarify why I waited so long, the blog will most certainly not be an everyday thing. I have been out of town most of this past week. I plan on trying my hardest to write one blog Mondays to recap the weekend and one blog on Thursdays to talk about mid-week activities. We now continue our look at the SEC and it's top 3 team.
3. South Carolina- Now I know this is probably the biggest shocker of the countdown but there were a couple of reasons I thought this was the case. 1. I hate The University of Arkansas and 2. for the amount of injuries the team endured, and the inner turmoil that was Stephen Garcia, Steve Spurrier did a masterful job to keep this team together and only lose 2 games, and only 1 under new comer Connor Shaw. The gamecocks were just too inconsistant to get over the hump again this year and make it back to Atlanta. Althought they scored an average of 25 points in leaue play, they turned the ball over 21 times in those 8 games. Now as just a personal footnote to this team, in all my years of watching SEC football, this defensive front might have been the most fun to ever watch. They are absolute animals. Having it's first 11 win season in school history, this season was a major success for the people of South Carolina. The cocks should be a mainstay in the SEC East for years to come.
Now before we break down the top 2 teams, I will go ahead and admit I am taking the pansy way out of this and both teams are number 1. It's just not fair to punish the tigers for one weak performance after 13 perfect ones, but in the same breath I can't punish Bama for their idiot kicker being a dumbass. With that said, let's revue their seasons.
1b. LSU- After reading my post thus far, you should begin to pick up on the fact that coaching means a lot to me and how it translates to their respective teams performances. And what Les Miles did after the off field issues that were suffered right before the season started was nothing short of a miracle. When Jordan Jefferson decided to take selfishness to a new level and beat the shit out of some poor soul in Baton Rouge it seemed as if the season might be lost. But what no one realized, maybe not even Les himself, was that the tigers had 11 future NFL players on the defensive side of the ball. They didn't do anything special on offense, but they won. Not enough can be said about Jarrett Lee and how he got the tigers past the first half of the season undefeated. And although I think he would have made NO difference in the championhip game, he was owed that chance. As dissappointing as the loss was at the end of the season, the Tigers will for sure be my preseaon #1 in 2012.
1a. Alabama- IT'S 14 NATIONAL CHAMIONSHIPS Y'ALL. ALL OTHER PROGRAMS SUCK. RTR. I LOVE YOU PAAAWWWLLLL. (20 minutes after he raised the crystal ball, Nick Saban was pissed thinking about 2012. He then proceeded to slap a 7 year old girl, and shake a baby until it started crying.) Anything positive that I was going to say about this program, which was a lot, was taken away by the class act who sexually assaulted an LSU fan on bourbon. (You know which video I'm talking about)
