don't actually know anything
SC picked last (they're 2nd)
AR picked 3rd (they're 3rd from last)
TAMU picked 2nd (they're not good)
Bama picked to be middling - they're #1
MU picked to be middling - worst team on Earth
Basically, the were right about TN being pretty good, a few teams being mediocre, and not much else.
