I doubt anyone here could predict all the games right.


Well so far only 2 of them are still correct on all their picks so far.

No. Closest one they have faced was probably Oklahoma or Texas. Their offensive line hasn't seen a defensive line remotely close to as good as ours or a secondary as good as ours.


They have a running QB and a good quick passing game, which somewhat neutralizes a good defensive line. They will still have to run, and if Ole Miss can get good penetration on running plays and limit TCU to short gains and losses when TCU does run you guys have a shot.

When you guys are on offense, I've watched Bo enough to trust that he will make mistakes against a defense that is very opportunistic and creates turnovers.

Once again, as has been the case the last 3 seasons, he is the x factor. If he plays like he did against Alabama, we will win by 2+ touchdowns. If Bad Bo shows up, we're in trouble.

If I wasn't an ole miss fan there's no way I would pick us to win.

Me either. I'm just poking the hornets nest.

ETA: Although, I really do think if Bo plays like he did against Alabama, we will beat them by a few touchdowns

Every keeps talking TCU up, but have they played a defense like Ole Miss?

Every day in practice some say.

BTW I agree with his picks. The only one I'm on the fence about is Bama.

Ole Miss doesn't lose Bowl Games. I know its hard to comprehend for an Arky fan who does nothing but shite the bed during bowls.

SEC is going to get rocked this year in bowls. frick the SEC and their Bama worship.

It was always parity which gave this conference its strength. Propping up one team is what the other conferences do. Look where it got them.

Chickens coming home to roost this year.

I guess we will know soon enough. I am very optimistic for the SEC West (I think even Ole Miss has a shot), the East? Who knows man?

That would be bad arse if all the SEC West teams won their bowl games since its the first time every team in the west was bowl eligible in the same year.

This is the typical post from a once relevant powerhouse who has declined to middle of the pack or worse, and whose butthurt over this fact frames the way they see things.

I guess we will find out won't we?

If you read my post you will see my sentiment is the opposite of your characterization. I think the fact that traditional cellar dwellers such as the Miss schools being competitive is actually a good thing.

You SOB's better not sleep on TCU, or they'll hang 55 on you. I won't be surprised AT ALL if they beat you.

So you'll be pulling for all the SEC teams to lose their bowl games (exc. LSU), and most of the folks on this board will be pulling for the SEC to prove it's the best conference in college football by beating OOC teams, huh?...sad.
You've let another team just totally control the way you look at college football. You're a sick little man.

Dennis Dodd is an idiot. Predicts SEC to go 4-8. I know these guys are just doucebag nerds, but is Minnesota that good? All but one picked them to beat Missouri.
