While the Alabama Crimson Tide were not able to break through and win a national title this past season, the team was once again right in the thick of the title hunt, winning the SEC and qualifying for the inaugural College Football Playoff, where they lost to the eventual national champions, Ohio State.
The Tennessee Volunteers are starting to come out the other end of what’s been a very long rebuild for a proud program. The Volunteers were once a breeding ground for NFL talent, and appears headed in the right direction in its efforts to get back to that elite level.
The Florida Gators gave Will Muschamp his last chance a year ago, and he didn’t do enough to save his job. Now Jim McElwain takes over in Gainesville with an eye on turning the Gators around in a hurry, but all signs point to a rebuilding year.
The Virginia Tech Hokies have won at least 10 games in eight consecutive seasons from 2004 through 2011, but has gone just 19-13 against FBS opponents over the last three seasons, and 7-6 in 2014. The Hokie defense remains among the best in the country, but finding some consistency on offense will be the key to a successful season.
The Mississippi State Bulldogs burst into the national spotlight as the darling team of 2014, picking up a rare double-digit win season. However, with that breakout now comes increased expectations for a program that hasn’t shown it can regularly put together that kind of success.
Describing the 2014 season Ole Miss just put together is tricky. The season was a success in some ways and a disappointment in others. Considering how difficult the SEC West wound up being, getting to nine wins is a heck of an accomplishment, but the Rebels certainly placed their sights higher after pulling down those goal posts after upsetting Alabama in Oxford.
Missouri has quietly won the SEC East in back-to-back seasons, though the program continues to be an afterthought in the division. The team has handled the move from the Big 12 to the SEC very well, but until they can break through and win something of significance, they’ll continue to be overlooked.

There are always a lot of unknowns heading into any NFL season, but if there is one constant – it is the fact that things WON’T be boring in Dallas!
The Houston Cougars are typical of most mid-major programs. Just when they think they are getting things really rolling they lose a senior quarterback, or a hot coach, and they are right back to square one.
In 2011 they went 13-1 thanks to the combo of QB Case Keenum and HC Kevin Sumlin (both now gone). They might have even gone to a BCS game were it not for a loss in the Conference USA title game to Southern Miss. Since then they have been competitive but 8-5 is not 13-1. It wasn’t even good enough for Tony Levine to keep his job. This is Houston right?
