The A&M loss in 22 was probably the most frustrating one in the entire Kelly era so far. They had absolutely no business losing like they did to them.
It took everything they had for the Tigers to win the West. By the A&M game they had reached their limit and a rested Archane returned from the injury list just in time to run all over them. Had they played a few weeks earlier the Tigers likely would have beaten them handily.

hardest game to win
I don't sink so. It'll likely be one of our road foes; Alabama, @Florida and @A&M will prove hard to beat. And don't overlook S. Carolina in the cockpit-- a tough out this year, I predict

I agree, let's see how they do with the preseason West crown.
It will be too heavy for them. I expect us to win a close one at home and it comes down to beating Bama and OU.
I don't see Ole Miss going 8-0 nor 7-1.
6-2 in SEC is my bet.

No, I don't think it will be Ole Miss.
I'm very worried about the USC game, it's not a home game. Technically neutral site, but it's more favorable for USC. The Trojans might have more fans in the seats in Vegas, than they do in Cali.
Both teams are replacing potent offenses, and trying to fix abysmal defenses. I cringe when giving Lincoln Riley any credit, but he DOES have a proven record of plugging the next guy in and continuing to roll, so I give them the edge on that side. We're HOPING Nuss and the new WRs will be great, but even with Daniels we started slow.
Defense, it's a tossup. LSU tends to have great players on D, can't say we do currently. Maybe we do, and the new coaches will unlock them. Otherwise, USC may actually have better talent on that side.
Otherwise rest of schedule, I think Alabama will still be very tough. The talent is there, they can actually afford some attrition and still be great.
Ole Miss strikes me as sort of an A&M situation with the great recruiting class- if they stumble or don't mesh early, that could collapse badly.
Oklahoma and UCLA will be fun games, I think they're going to be fights.

This team appears to be better than the typical bottom dweller Ole Miss had become for the past half century. They have not a wining tradition and this modest success is new to them. It might be there year or they could just as easily fold. They will be a worthy opponent.
