It’s not your father’s SEC East this year.

Over at Orange and Blue Hue, Keltic Gator has a post up about the SEC East in 2007 that is a fabulous read.

This year, things just aren’t what they used to be in this division.  Check out this startling point:

… Out of the 12 SEC teams in the league only one Eastern team ranks in the top 4 defenses in the league based on the 9 categories kept by the SEC office (Scor. Def, Rush Def, Pass Def, Pass Def Effic, Total Def, Red Zone Def, 1st Downs All, 3rd Downs Allowed, and 4th Downs Allowed).  That team is the Vanderbilt Commodores.

That deserves a Keith Jacksonesque “whoa, Nellie”.  Read the whole thing.
