Reality to me is:
Barry Odom's play calling ability keeps us in every game this season and he ultimately is recognized as the best DC in the SEC.
We lose a game to an opponent we shouldn't and blame it on overlooking that opponent.
Maty Mauk starts the season by completing +70% of his passes, drops to 60-65% in October and eventually finishes the season between 58-63%
We go 10-2 but a loss in November keeps us out of Championship game.
We defeat Clemson in the Belk Bowl

Mizzou stats were similar to Indiana stats in that game, but our defensive and o-lines were dominated. Mizzou lines were dominated by Arky in the first half until we went to the no huddle in the second half. We grinded out most of our yards which added to the total and time of possession. That was a hard earned victory for us and that fumble at the end caused and recovered by Golden was hard to tell if the runner was down after he fumbled. I thought it was a good call.

Weird because I don't remember feeling threatened once in the Arky game. Probably my black and gold glasses.
Dream season can't be anything less than a national championship.
Reality...anywhere from 8 to 11 wins.

We'll just have to disagree then. You don't dominate the LOS but lose the yardage and TOP battles significantly.

10-2 is a Outback/Citrus/Peach Bowl matchup.Everything else sounds about right though.

Realistic 10-2. Floor 8-4.
Dream 12-0 and win the SECCG. But don't stop there.
Mizzou's road games will determine conference success. We have to hold serve at home which I think is very possible. UK, UGA, Vandy and arky on-the-road. A Kentucky road game worries me...it just does. Vandy will be Vandy. UGA will be super tough and they should win "on paper". Pinkel is tough in November, if we are healthy then. Both Mizzou and arky should be playing for something meaningful.
