Welcome to another edition of Around the SEC, where everything is made up and the points don’t matter. That’s right, the points are like when the fans of Big Ten schools complain the SEC isn’t good or “they ain’t played nobody PAWWWLLLL”. Let them talk their talk. Yes, they are on a great streak of winning nattys, and their best teams are elite. But we all know who the better, deeper conference is at the end of the day.

Tropical Storm Isaias

As you may have heard, the Georgia/Alabama game may be a wash out due to the incoming Tropical Storm Isaias from the gulf.The latest models are now suggesting the rain may stop by kickoff according to meteorologist James Spann. Something to keep an eye on. A wet, windy game likely favors Georgia given the strength of the defense, run game, and screen game.

Kamario Taylor Update

After leaving the Bulldogs’ loss to Alabama with an injury, Mississippi State QB Kamario Taylor is listed as day-to-day with a leg injury. Mississippi State has a bye this week, so keep an eye on his status leading up to next weekend’s game against LSU.

Change in Knoxville

Tennessee will start QB George MacIntyre for their game this weekend against Arkansas. MacIntyre will be making his first career start, having come in to replace struggling incumbent QB Faizon Brandon to lead the Volunteers’ comeback against Auburn.

New Unis in Oxford

Ole Miss will begin a seven-year deal with Adidas beginning on July 1, 2027, leaving Nike. Let’s hope eligibility guardrails get enforced or else we could see a player wearing that jersey for the duration of that contract.
