Lol 7-4 rest of way lol


I'm thinking 5-6. One thing that was obvious - we lose by 20 without Thomas - and he was 6-19 from the floor last night.

The path to 8 wins is winning out at home (gets you to 7) and beating USC on the road (8).

It has been very difficult to win on the road in this league. Home teams went 11-4 this week between saturday and the midweek games.

That however requires them going 4-0 over the next 4, and I just don't see a McMahon team playing that consistent for 2 weeks

I would not count on them beating Texas on the road. They have blasted Vandy and Georgia there the last two home games

8-10 will but there is no way in hell we sniff 8-10. 1-17, 2-16, 3-15 waaaaayyyy more likely than 8-10.

Best case scenario
Home games
State W
Split arky/uga W/L
Bama L (we never beat them)
Oklahoma W
A&M W

4-2 at home


Away games
@USC winnable with Thomas. W
@Tenner L
@ Texas @ Ole Miss @Auburn (Realistically 1 out of 3 but I could see 2/3).

Best case 7-4 but probably 6-5. Does 7-11 get us in?

That Tennessee game could be one we could steal on the road.

All that said we probably win 5 more games max.

He’s won 4 SEC road games…in 3.5 years. To expect him to win more than 1 (if that) the rest of the way would be a BIG trend-breaker.

For whatever reason McMahon always matches up well with Calipari. That doesn’t mean today is a precursor for success. It will be interesting to see what happens vs MSU. Jans has owned McMahon. 5-0 with an average margin of victory close to 20 points
Perfectly said. The casual fan will just look at the current records and think they aren't very good this year and LSU can get a win. That would be ignoring 3.5 seasons of data. State is a great example. We have more talent than State and the game is at the PMAC, however, Jans owns McMahon.

We are realistically looking at a 4-14 or 5-13 conference record. I do however think there might be a surprise big win in there as even the top teams in the conference seem to be having off nights this season. When DJ, Sutton and Mackinnon are on, we have a shot, but it is rare under this coach that all cylinders are firing.
