I had us at 10-2 and that is very possible.


I get it that we didn't learn very much the first 2 weeks. If you look at the team and schedule and you can see 10-2, then I just don't know what to tell any of you.

Can this team win 7 more games? Maybe. It's a stretch. 8 more? Look at the schedule again and tell me the 8 wins.

We will be favored in every game minus Texas. The Tennessee game could alter depending on how they perform vs Texas on Saturday where Texas is at -3.5. If Texas blows them out, we see an easy LSU -2.5 in Knoxville.

Suppose Tennessee crushes Texas and exposes them. Then, you can just flip the roles as we will be favored at home vs Longhorns and dogs at UT-Knoxville.

Tennessee plays A&M the same day LSU plays Texas. That could very well be a four-team, two weekend playoff bracket. Right now, the chips are stacked against Aggies above all. But LSU is certainly in danger land, too.

I would not be shocked to see horns lose in Knoxville this weekend. And that will shake things up.

Bottom line, LSU will be favored in all of its remaining games except for one.

Question for you though. They’re only 3-4 points favorites at Tennessee. If they win a close one I don’t think it’s crazy to think Texas/LSU might be a pick em

Could be. If we blow out Aggies and they play an overtime like game with UT or get blown out, I think we will be favored in our game with Horns. And then we become a slight dog in Knoxville. As Buddy Songy said, “Let’s see what’s underneath the bikini” when it comes to Vols. They have only a blowout win against a very mediocre GT team to show for it thus far.

You would agree that it is more likely we lose to both Texas and Bama than it is for us to beat both of them, wouldn't you?

I get that. He said it as though it were a fact, so I assumed he had specifics in mind.

Texas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama.........and possibly Moo State and Auburn.
They are just not a very good football team. Basically you have the same thing that you had last year, you're just 200 million poorer. If A&m lights them up this weekend at home, you can gauge it from there. It's a rough road from here on. We can see that throwing money at the problem , did not solve the problem.

We will win 1 of 2 vs Bama or Texas and lose at Tennessee. BTW… there will be no undefeated teams in the SEC IMHO.

No I don't agree. The Gumps are not as good as last year.

We are not losing two games in Nov and getting into the playoffs.

Look at A&M, Bama, Texas, Tenn....we have to go 3-1 in those.

Kentucky, Auburn, State - we have to go 3-0 in those.

Seems unlikely.

No, not with the new gay Notre Dame rule.

Only exception would be if there are 4-5 SEC teams that all finish 9-3 at the top.

That being said, I still think they are capable of winning every game left on the schedule. Will they, who knows?

At least with Kiffin we have a seat at the table. With BK this team would be 7-5

With the extra game this year it will be much harder for anyone to be u defeated. I really wish they didn’t give the schools like Tulane playoff spots. If they didn’t do that we could potentially make it in as a 4th place SEC team.
