7-6 with bowl win. We beat everyone we're supposed to; lose to everyone we're supposed to.

Just positing for posterity.

True, but I never come to this forum for anything enlightening. I only appear for tGrind in the preseason and after a win. Then a clever troll is expected.

I see one for sure loss to Bama, obviously. We're going to beat Arkansas and LSU, but I'm just a little nervous about LSU. All signs say we should win but you know, history and shite.

Toss up games of UGA, Auburn, A&M (only because A&M's away) which I think we lose two of.

9-3

I see 7-5.

Wins: Charleston Southern, BYU, Umass, UK, Ole Miss
Probable Wins: La Tech, aTm, UGA
Probable Losses: LSU, Arky
Losses: Auburn, Alabama

Normally, I'd switch LSU and UGA, but LSU always finds a way to beat us


I think the defense will be improved (because it's hard to be worse than Sirmon's D unless we bring ron cooper back). I'm not sold on the offense yet. Our showing in the bowl game was really lackluster and I don't trust the offensive line.

On the bright side, we no longer have to worry about Holloway up the middle -- he worked hard, but was just not the right guy for that at all.

It's strange that everyone seems to consider Fitz the cornerstone and be concerned about other areas of the offense.

To be honest, Fitz is my biggest question. If he develops like Dak did and really worked his arse off over the offseason, then we will be a really good team this year and next. But we can't just make that assumption, because honestly it didn't look like he put in that work between '15 and '16. I hope he has made leaps and bounds and has full command of the team. But if he hasn't improved, we will get last year with a harder schedule and a less shitty defense.

Ultimately the work he did or didn't put in over the last 8 months is the difference in 6 wins and 8+.

There is no one in this league that is a 100% loss for us except Alabama. Period.

That's what I'm kind of expecting. Fitz be the same but our defense shoudl be a little better.

Things may change, but Arkansas didn't exactly look like an automatic L last night.

If our defense is OK, we may do pretty well this year. I figure we will average 30ish PPG like last year. If the D can drop from 32 PPG to 24 or 25, we could win 8 or 9.

Can we reset our predictions now that we've actually seen the team play?
