While watching Tennessee, 10-2 regular season is very attainable.

If Guice stays healthy, our oline stays pretty healthy,and our lbs stay healthy, I fully expect this team to have a 10-2 regular season. now I'm not saying it's a failure if we don't go 10-2 but I'm saying I have faith that 10-2 and even 11-1 is very attainable.
sec road games are never a sure thing but we are more talented than every sec team we play on the road except bama. auburn has won in TS 3 times in 75 years and hopefully we continue that home dominance against them. I think our coaching staff and players will get it done this year and reverse the trend of losing games we should win.

It's week 1. Teams that look like crap will get better and teams that look good will fall off. Happens every year.

Bama is Bama, Florida wasn't impressive, UT my god DG could go for 200 11-1 if we don't have injuries, 12-0 if Bama does

it's hard to say.
an inferior team steaks up on bama every year so I wasnt gonna rule out the possibility of it happening to us.

Right ...that's my point.

We really should go 11-1 based on rosters.

Ga Tech has a player named Quaide Weimerskirch.

Tennessee is screwed.

of course which I why I said the record looks attainable. we have the 1st team talent to best any team. the 2nd team talent is where bama gets us. the gap between their 1s and 2s is no where near as big as ours and their 1s are more talented than our 1s too but the gap isnt as big as their 2s and our 2s.

well you can't really predict like that or bama would have been undefeated for the last 6 years.
I was reserving the right for someone to sneak up on us like someone does to every other team.

I was going off your belief that we reverse the trend of losing to inferior teams.

are you under the impression that bama isn't better than every single program in cfb? every single program in cfb falls short when compared to bama. Saban just recruits on another level than all the other programs in cfb.

we love to say how much nfl talent we have put in the NFL and rightly so but since 2010 we have had less than 7 players drafted 5 times. in that same span bama has had less than 7 players drafted just one time.

there are other team in the sec that recruit just as well as lsu. I was talking about losing to teams that are at a noticeable talent disadvantage( 2016 Florida missing starters, 2015 arkansas). I probably should've worded my initial post better

I cannot see losing two games.
11-1 at worse and I said this before the byu game . I have no idea why so many are shocked by that game.

yeah I had no doubt we would beat byu. I did think they would be able to pass a little better seeing as our best Las rusher was out and that we had to replace such great starters in white and Adams but the freshmen didn't jist come to take part they came to take over. I was impressed with Greedy on that not. you don't usually see sophomores get their head around and find the ball but he did. Thompson also was everywhere. happy for him since he has been around so long

No complaints here . I thought we'd score a bit more , but I was happy with controlling the clock. I am a huge TOP fan.
Overall about what I expected in the opener even with the new personnel.

Long way to go but yeah I am cautiously optimistic this team can go 10-2 or better. Before week one Inwas thinking 9-3 but they looked better than expected and other sec opponents are looking worse outside of bama and auburn.

Tennessee can't stop the run so we should be able to handle Tennessee pretty well
