I'm not sure we've played Oklahoma before. CRB should be comfortable in that setting and hopefully have a little something extra for his two decade long rival.
Texas finally got a hire right with that basketball coach. He's probably the 2nd best coach in the league. I'd put him ahead of Bruce because Bruce hasn't been through any sustained period without some kind of scandal coming from his program. Won't be surprised if we end up hearing something relating to Jabari Smith down the road. Both football and basketball have been in hot water in last 4-years so we know it's not just a one-time thing with Cam Newton down on the plains.
If I had to predict average finish over the next few seasons I think it will look something like the below. I think Vols will be more like #4, #3, #4, #5 but it will average us out to be 3rd overall as programs like Arky/Bama sneak in the top-3 a couple years.
1. Kentucky
2. Texas
3. Tennessee
4. Auburn
5. LSU
6. Arkansas
7. Alabama
8. Florida
9. Texas A&M
10 - 16. The rest
