There’s still a Petrino calling the plays, Bobby’s brother Paul.  So there’s a ... chance 2012 will go just the same without Petrino as it would have with him.

...
... The Petrino “difference,” however, will be on display in three games: Alabama (h), South Carolina (a) and LSU (h).  With Alabama lined up third on the schedule, it won’t take long for us to see .........

The SEC West is still brutal. While Arkansas comes out unscathed (13-0) to win the title, Alabama, LSU, Auburn and Texas A&M all finish with at least 4 losses.

I'm not buying Arkansas ahead of LSU.  With Petrino, sure, they would be in contention for winning the West.  But without him, I think they fizzle out by mid season.
