4 games to go. 2 at home and 2 on the road.

We play on the road for the first two, we really need to steal one at Ole Miss.

LSU's probably too physical and has too much depth for us to win in their house. Ole Miss we match up better with as crazy as that sounds.

MSU I still think will beat us, we've never been able to solve the Prescott issue, no reason for that to change.

Mizzou is a must win for oh so many reasons. Especially if we lose the three before that game. Finishing 4-8 even with the injury losses is not going to help the program one bit moving forward. The only good thing will be it means the end of the Petrino recruits on the roster. A day I've been looking forward to for 3 years.

Bert's real abilities will shine over the next four games or we'll get a glimpse into what the next four years will be until we can unload him and go through this cycle all over again, likely hiring a coach that is polar opposite to the roster.

I think we can win 2 of 4, it won't be easy but the team can do it. 3 of 4 is possible if they play with a purpose and go lights out.

Also whoever the frick said our DL wasn't going to drop off, needs to STFU (looking at you Bertimus)

What makes you think their qb isn't going to throw all day long on us, though? I'm prepared to watch us get thrashed in that game. :(

I think the home field advantage is going to prove big for us against Miss State and we we in that one convincingly.


If we fricking lose to Mizzou I will probably get banned for my behavior on here.

the base D used yesterday was that way for a reason imho. Several younger players in there, testing different looks, etc.

Our D will do much better at OM...

Well I hope it's better than it was against Aggie and Tech.

This has been a frustration for several years now, not just with Prescott.

We will play pretty good defense on 1st and 2nd down, get them in 3rd and 7 or such, and inevitably Prescott (or other mobile QB) will scramble and pull a first down out of their arse. Frustrating as hell.

ole miss might be the hardest team to figure of any SEC team.

Puts 43 on bama in a win then gets beat by Memphis.

Can only manage 23 against a&m's porous defense. They're Jekyll & Hyde.

Haven't gotten out of the twenties in their last three games and didn't beat aubarn by much, but it was at aubarn.

We'll definitely have to play our best game of the season to beat them.

I think we win 2 of our last 4, but this team makes me think I have no idea which 2.

It wouldn't surprise me if we won the two "winnable" home games while predictably losing to OM and LSU on the road, and it also wouldn't shock me if we crap the bed at home but beat those two in shocking fashion on the road.

I find solace in the fact that Bert's teams have always played much better as the season progressed, and we've seen that bear out this year thus far. Plus, both LSU and State play Alabama the week before us, and we're catching Ole Miss in their 10th straight week before their bye.

However, our pass D better get their shite together, and fast, or Swag Kelly and the Dak Attack will eat our lunch. The middle of the field is still wide arse open.

Bama gave the the short field with like 5 turnover in that game.

The other teams made them earn their opportunities, shitty defense or not, Freeze, like Gus has a playbook that consists of 5 plays in 40 different formations.

I don't get why everyone thinks we'll lose to MSU? We nearly beat them in Starkville last year and have only once lost to them at home. Their most impressive win is probably @Auburn 17-9, while they lost @A&M 30-17. I don't see us losing.

It's nice to have that auto 5th win in Mizzou. Just need 1 of those other 3. We're in a pretty good spot tbh

Because we should have beat them the last 2 seasons, yet we've shite the game away in the fourth like the patented Bielema Arkansas teams all do.

Auburn should have been wrapped up but we let them back into it to force OT.

No-one should have confidence in this team beating a capable opponent. They can, but will they execute? Will Bielema not shoot himself in the foot?

I agree with you completely. With our team, you can never really tell who will beat, or lose to. However, I do believe that we can beat at least 2 of our remaining opponents, and get into a bowl game.

Ole Miss is going to wear us out in the middle of the field.
We play right into their hands.

If we can make them work for it in the red zone I like our chances of them self destructing enough for us to keep it close.

I can't argue with that, because we've blown games we should have won every year Bielema's been here. However, this one being at home, I think we got it.
