Auburn has 8 lose-able games on the schedule...how many does your team have?

Tier 1
Bama, LSU, USCe, and UGA are all reasonable picks to win the conference. A loss to any of them would not be the least bit surprising.
Tier 2
Ole Miss and MSU have the brightest outlooks heading into the season that they have had in several years and Au plays both on the road. Auburn losing to these teams on the road would be an upset, but not that big of one.
Tier 3
Losing to aTm and/or K. State would be slightly bigger upsets, but Kevin Sumlin is going to have a good offense and playing K. State in Manhattan on a Thursday night is very dangerous.
Auburn should be a more complete team this year and should be more consistent, but the schedule is much tougher than last year.
ETA: Consider the term lose-able in the "reasonably foreseeable" sense and not the "anything is possible" sense.

A&M, Florida, Georgia, Missouri, Auburn, and Clemson.
Possible upset from Tennessee, but I don't see it happening at home. Weirder shite has happened to South Carolina though.
ETA: How the frick I forgot Auburn is beyond me. Our toughest game.

The only game we will for sure lose is Bama...the rest are all tossups

Yep, the schedule is brutal this year. I hope our guys stay healthy. It will be interesting in watching how the gauntlet is run.

Maybe 6 for Bama. Right now only three that look that dangerous.
In order of most loseable:
Auburn
@LSU
Gap
@Ole Miss
Gap
Florida/MSU (can't decide)
Gap
Texas A&M
No other loseable games in my opinion.

No, my statement was directed more towards the general population

asked and answered...according to this board 0-12 is a real possibility

Every game is "lose-able" in college football.
