I don't think so.

Negative: 7-5
Positive: 11-1
Realistic: 9-3

I only say 9-3 realistic in a holistic view and knowing that every week in the SEC can lead to losing a game you should win on paper. That said, when looking at each individual game I can't find 3 that we should lose. I think the Auburn game will be a close loss just because it is so early in the season and right after what will be a very physical game against Moo State. Other than that, the Bama game will always be epic and close so we could lose that one (although I certainly hope we break that streak). It is then extremely difficult to pinpoint any other game we would lose. Trouble is that history shows we have found ways to lose games we should win (97 Ole Miss game the week after beating #1 UF comes to mind).
