I think Tennessee and LSU flounder this year. I agree with you on Daniels carrying LSU and I can't trust Brian Kelly, and Tennessee looks like a mess right now with everything going on.
Oklahoma could end up being great in the long run but they have to gain consistency. They beat Texas but followed that up by barely surviving UCF and losing to Kansas and Oklahoma State, and it's not going to get easier. Recruiting is good and coaching seems to be the right fit.
Agree on Ole Miss for sure, I think they're definitely in a great spot. Auburn, we'll see. the 2020s have been awful there and last year was a major low note.
Missouri is definitely on people's radar now, but I think they have a great coach and definitely have talent. 2024 will be a huge year for them, especially with the new CFP format.
On any given year, the SEC does tend to be top-heavy it seems. 6 teams have won a title since 1998, but Tennessee, Florida, and Auburn have been the model of mismanagement of talent and shit coaching for most of the last decade or so.
