Contest in Confidence Points on which SEC coaches get fired next year

I believe this is the last season for Les Miles, Bob Stoops, and Gus Malzahn, and may be the last for Sumlin.
We could have a contest, like the ESPN Bowl confidence contest, on which SEC coaches get fired next year.
Here's my list with the highest number of confidence points for the coach most likely to get fired.
6. Bob Stoops
5. Gus Malzahn
4. Les Miles
3. Kevin Sumlin
2.Bielema
1. Butch Jones (If UT fails once again to make it to the SEC championship game, I just don't see him lasting another year.)

BB? Any hog fans think he gets tanked for a 6-6?

6. Bob Stoops - Nope...Oklahoma made the playoff last year and isn't in the SEC.
5. Gus Malzahn - His seat could be getting a little warm.
4. Les Miles - Nope...They don't want another fiasco like last season's vote of confidence...and LSU can't afford to buy him out, anyway.
3. Kevin Sumlin - Possibly...all it takes is a really bad season or another drunken escapade.
2.Bielema - He started turning things around last year...so not really likely.
1. Butch Jones (If UT fails once again to make it to the SEC championship game, I just don't see him lasting another year.) - Nope...UT just had their best season in nearly a decade.

For better or worse that guy is a gotdamn rock star in Arkansas. Not even worth mentioning in the same sentence as hot seat (or any implied form of a warm seat (only broken seats)) for the next 2 years.

I didn't know we already added OU to the SEC

Sumlin. I think he's history with less than 9 wins
Butch. Seems the VN is getting restless
Gus. Should've canned his arse last year.
Stoops. He was in the CFP last season. Safe
Fat Bert
Miles. Only way he's gone is if we lose 4 or more.

I mean, there are plenty of scenarios where we don't win the East, and Butch is retained.
What if UF goes 12-0, and UT goes 11-1?

Barring a massive collapse (I'm talking no bowl game here) or something else very drastic coming out in this whole Title 9 situation, Butch will be UT's coach for at least 2 more seasons. If UT were to flop to a 8-4 or 7-5 season, Butch would surely be on the hot seat. And admittedly, Butch has had a problem with tensing up in close games, usually either costing us or almost costing us the game. Hell, I'll admit that he's the reason our losing streak to Florida lives on*. But the administration isn't gonna be so quick to can a guy who's brought the program from the fricking dumpster into a position where it can be a SEC and national contender. Our win total has increased by 2 each year, and most of the players who were starters in the Dooley days wouldn't scratch the two-deep on our current roster. Furthermore, the administration takes into account things like team GPA, which has improved vastly under CBJ. I still have my reservations about the guy, but like it or not, he almost certainly isn't going anywhere for at least 2 years. And I think Bert is in somewhat of a similar position, Miles, Sumlin, Malzahn, Stoops, Mason, and Mullen are all far more likely to be sent packing after this year than either of them.

5. Gus Malzahn- most likely of the list provided
4. Les Miles - nah
3. Kevin Sumlin - should be most likely, but isn't
2.Bielema - has Hawg fans in some kind of trance- he's safe
1. Butch Jones- not for anything football related. Would have to be rape cover-up type stuff.
If Will Muschamp's head explodes is that the same thing as getting fired?

He wouldn't get fired for not winning the East. He'd get fired for a losing season or maybe a 6-6 season. But UT isn't gonna fired him this year for not winning the division as long as they have a decent season.

Are Arky fans really goaltending for bert already? I realize he finished out the season fairly strong but has everybody forgotten all the calls to fire him halfway through this last season? The dude has yet to win more than 7 regular season games after 3 years....
As to the others:
Sumlin, Miles, & Malzahn will all be sweating if their teams win less than 8 games, and rightfully so. With returning talent factored in that means A&M and auburn are most likely to be coach shopping after this season.
