"Sleep • er: (noun) something or someone that becomes unexpectedly successful or important after a period of being unnoticed, ignored, or considered unpromising or a failure"

Everybody has a few websites they frequent when they take a much-needed break from work or school or whatever. One of mine is collegefootballnews.com; mainly because it's updated every day with decent content (note to self: possibly business strategy at work?).
Pete Fiutak, a writer for that site, tends to be less afraid to follow the crowd than others when it comes to predictions. As I implied in a previous entry, this practice usually stems from the desire to yell "told ya so!" when certain obscure prognostications come true. But, generally, Pete justifies most of his picks well. At least I think he does. Which is why I'm not shocked at the following statement:
(Who will win the SEC?)
"Georgia: I'm going all in on the Bulldogs. I'm not sold that Bama can repeat with so many huge changes on the defensive side, while the Dawgs have the right schedule and the right season to get back to the title game. However, two conference losses will mean the SEC is left out of the national championship since Vince Young led Texas to the 2005 title over USC."
He goes on...who's his "surprise team" of 2010?
"Georgia: Everyone is talking Alabama and Florida, but the Dawgs will keep on winning (and doing it ugly) on their way to a huge season. Aaron Murray will be just fine."
Fiutak eventually states he thinks UGA will meet Pitt in the Sugar Bowl. So what do you think, Dawg fans? Do you prefer the limelight be shed on Alabama or Florida? Or do you like that Georgia is starting to create a buzz nationally with its potential for a "huge season?"

I like the light on Florida and bama, and I like that Georgia will garner its attention and praise from the RESULTS.
