Proof that Bleacher Report is a useless website [link]

Whether his information is any good or not, it's better than when I normally see a Bleacher Report article written by some SEC fan about another SEC school or SEC schools with a clear bias. For example, an article about Houston Nutt written by an Arkansas fan, or an article about <span style="text-decoration:line-through">MSU</span> LSU written by an Ole Miss fan.
This guy's rooting interests are WVU and UNC, so at least he's not leaning to or away from any schools for a bias reason. In all likelihood though, it also means he's probably not very informed.
I do think we'll have a decent running attack, if for no other reason than it's what we're going to rely on. By the same token, I see the same for MSU. If Relf is your QB, you're going to be 65% run just like you were last year, and it'll be the cornerstone of your offense.
Having LSU and UT down low makes sense. UT loses its entire offensive line and it's top RBs. LSU sucked last year running the ball, and they lost their top RBs I believe. You lost Dixon, but I believe you'll still run the ball and run it at worst respectably.

That's how turrable the east is this year. I know that has nothing to do with their offensive rankings, just wanted to opine.
in rushing offense this fall. And how long is it going to take people to realize that Spurrier isn't an offensive genius any more and hasn't been for a long long time. His offenses were innovative 20 years ago, but today he's not doing anything that a lot of other coaches aren't doing and he's not doing it as well as a lot of them either.

Yep. Here arethe SEC rushing offense rankingsfor last season. It's crazy to think that MSU is going to be last and SC anywhere near the top. That article seemed towander back and forth between touting single rushers and team rushing offenses.

That article's order for 2010:
1. Alabama
2. Georgia
3. Florida
4. UM
5. South Carolina
6. Auburn
7. Arkansas
8. Kentucky
9. Vanderbilt
10. LSU
11. Tennessee
12. MSU
But I agree on SC winning with defense and a solid running game.
the UGA fans are going to be all over Richt (even more than now) if/when he starts out 0-3 in the league.

<div>You should have looked at the Bleecher the other day. My friend is a WVU student and sent it to me bc Bleecher rated the "Hardest Hitters" in the NCAA and WVU's safetey (something) Sands was number 1. They had a guy from ARK (#31) as the number 8 hardest hitter. If you don't remember who number 31 is on ARK you will now. Let me refresh your memory.</div><div>
