Their fans drank the kool-aid. Go check out the boards. I'm not sure how to feel about their chest thumping because in theory, they should be in contention for a playoff spot this season however you never know how a hyped SEC team is really going to turn out.
Last year people were saying Clemson is gon' Clemson at some point and that never occurred. If anything, they curb stomped everyone they could just because they knew they needed to shake that label. I'm hoping Tennessee hasn't taken the overrated message too seriously and continue to drink their own kool-aid as I'd be disappointed to see a performance like Southern had with WVU last season.
Note: That isn't a dig at Southern. I watched that entire game and the only real issue I saw, other than not being able to pass the ball, is that the scheme match-up was definitely in WVU's favor with the 3-3-5.
On the prediction front:
* Troy regains their footing as a top 5 team
* Southern loses ground in the first few weeks as they adjust, however rebound in time for a win over Arkansas State
* State wins the conference again after ditching the 2 QB system by the time conference play ramps up
