Football '10 forecast: Linebackers and Defensive backs

The Ole Miss front four understandably gets all the hype, but the guys lining up behind them at linebacker aren’t bad themselves.

By my estimations, the ‘backers are the second best unit on the team – behind the defensive line and slightly ahead of the running backs.

SEC Rankings: Running Backs

1. Alabama: Alabama could break out the ‘ole wishbone offense and win another national championship with last year’s Heisman Trophy winner, Mark Ingram, and Trent Richardson running the rock.

Track star ready to take team to new heights

Despite recent successes achieved by a few current and former members, the Ole Miss track and field team rarely finds its way into everyday conversation in Oxford. That is a culture that rising sophomore Ricky Robertson hopes to change.

Football '10 forecast: Tight ends and wide recievers

The past two seasons have seen the Ole Miss Rebels send two of their all-time greats at wide receiver to the NFL: the speedy Mike Wallace to the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2009 and Shay Hodge - the oftreliable safety valve of Jevan Snead and the Rebels’ first 1,000-yard receiver – to the Washington Redskins in 2010.

SEC Rankings: Special teams

1. Auburn: The Auburn Tigers have it going on in the special teams department with senior Wes Byrum booting field goals through the uprights. Byrum nailed 15-16 field goals last season for the Tigers. Kick returner Demond Washington – a one time Ole Miss commit – had the highest kick return average (31.1 yards) of any player in the Southeastern Conference with a reasonable number of reps.

Teams play more conservatively in their first games because securing a point is far more important than conceding three.

SEC rankings: Defensive line

 

1. FLORIDA: The Gators led the Southeastern Conference in sacks last season with 29, but defensive ends Carlos Dunlap and Jermaine Cunningham are gone after their selection in the second round of the NFL Draft. Florida will rely on veteran Justin Trattou to make a successful move from tackle to end for the nation’s top defensive line class to live up to its hype.

Despite the loss of two-year starter Jevan Snead, the Rebels may just end up with improved passing numbers from last year. While Snead did throw for 2,632 yards last season, he only completed 54.4 percent of his passes and offset 20 touchdowns with 20 interceptions.

Football conference proposal

If you have had any exposure to sports news lately, you’ve certainly heard about the changes going on in college football. Hopefully, this is just the start of a total realignment that is to come.

So far, Colorado has moved to the Pac-10 and Nebraska has joined the Big 12. Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State will likely join Colorado in forming a 16-team super-conference out West.

Texas A&M a good fit for SEC

It once appeared that the Southeastern Conference wanted nothing to do with the conference realignments and expansions that have already bolstered the Pac-10 and Big Ten and have threatened the livelihood of the Big 12.

SEC football rankings: Linebackers

 

 

1. South Carolina: Even with stud weak-side linebacker Eric Norwood gone, the Gamecock’s exotic 4-2-5 defense will be formidable. Shaq Wilson, last year’s starter at middle linebacker, moves to Norwood’s vacated position.
