What record in Football would you label as a "disappointment" for 2013?

Honestly with our schedule 9-3 would be considered "good" but my personal disappointment will be if we lose more than 1 game (yes I know i'm unrealistic)

4 losses is a disappointing season.

Last year was disappointing because the expectations were so high. The 2013 could overachieve.

9 - 3 would be disappointing.

My reasoning is that I truly do not believe that either A&M or UGA are going to be nearly as good as the press is predicting.

Likewise, TCU doesn't really scare me.

Also, Florida is in Tiger Stadium, and should be a win.

Finally, the biggest joke in the SEC, Ole Miss, will not pose the Tigers a problem.

So, if we lose one of the games above, and also lose to BAMA or we beat the little dwarf an lose two of the games above, we end up at 10 - 2.

I just don't see us losing more than two of those 6. If we lose to anybody else on the schedule, all bets are off.

I just don't see us losing any games if the band plays neck.

Now that's a sign of true wisdom!

9-4

10-3 with a Cotton Bowl win over Texas would make me pretty happy

I'm going to every game home and away so I'll be pretty disappointed by any loss. However 1 loss doesn't eliminate us so 2 losses is definitely a disappointment for me.

It depends on the play. As long as it appears we are playing to our potential any record is fine with me.

Well given that even the national media was a bit taken back by the Tigers schedule this year, I say a LSU 9-3 record is more impressive than any other SEC team going undefeated.

Just want to win the west and play for the SECCG. I don't care who is in the west or what the schedules are like. My disappointment will be if the Tigers are eliminated from Atlanta.

With a senior QB, veteran NFL OC at the helm, and talent galore at the skill positions, 9-3 would be disappointing to me despite the schedule and losses on D.

We have to go to a BCS game this year no excuses. We were robbed in 2011 when Bama got to play in the NCG (like the NCG really selects the best two teams). In 2010 Arky was selected over us to play Ohio St in the Sugar Bowl and got thoroughly embarrassed.

Cam's first year playing UGA on the road to go along with Bama so I'd predict 10-2 but 9-3 would be a disappointment. Also we HAVE to win our bowl game this year. No excuses, not even "they don't want to be here".

I seriously hate how I've seen Clemson as such a great team because they beat us. Not running Hill to at least 20 carries was just dumb on all levels. I thought we were going to have our first RB to rush for over 200 yards in a game in the last 10 years yet at even 10 ypc average we decide to put the game in wayward Mett's hands.

Second thing was not giving help to Alexander against that beast DE Clemson has (who I hear is the best player on their defense by far).

Third thing is what in the hell was wrong with our secondary the whole year? Sure we could ball hawk a little bit but we constantly let QBs go up and down the field on us.

All I can hope for is that the oline gets better at protecting the outside rush (because Mett is a statue) and that is likely given that Alexander only had one true bad game and our best lineman is now at his true position. Also that Mett can at least take some arm off his deep balls which both Dural and Leslie should make their bread and butter off.
