For LSU:

North Texas 0-0
Washington 1-0
Idaho 1-1 (loss to Bowling Green)
Auburn 2-1 (loss to MSU or maybe Clemson, but not both)
Towson ?? (who cares?)
Florida 3-1 (maybe 4-0, loss to A&M, if any)
South Carolina 5-1 (maybe 6-0, loss to UGa, if any)
Texas A&M 5-1 (loss to Arkansas or UF, but not both)
Alabama 8-0
Mississippi State 7-2 (loss to Alabama and either Auburn or A&M, but not both)
Ole Miss 3-7 (4-6 if they beat Vandy, wins over C. Ark, UTEP and Tulane)
Arkansas 9-2 (8-3 if they lose to A&M, loss to Alabama and South Carolina)

So, Ole Miss will likely be the only LSU opponent (besides maybe Towson) to come into their game against us with a losing record.

I wonder how many times we'll have to beat them before people stop predicting us to lose to them every single year

That was kinda ironic coming from an Arky fan, seeing how Arky fans like their chances against Alabama seemingly every year.

Well, then tell me. How many times does Alabama have to arse pound Arkansas before your fanbase stops whole-sale talking shite every offseason leading up to the September game? That's seemingly what you're saying about Arkansas and South Carolina.

Not really

The only years we thought we had a chance in were 2010 and 2011

2010 was a close game and 2011 was the best Bama team in a while

And no Arkansas fan thought we were going to win last year. Maybe in 2010, but definitely not 2011

Stop making up bullshite

While you have beaten them 5 of the last 6, you have to admit Spurrier has them doing very well and that your program is due for a letdown this season with John LOL Smith at the helm.

Your point is well taken, though.

Talking shite?

If an Arkansas fan is talking shite about Alabama then they're most likely trolling. I doubt an Arkansas fan would talk shite in a serious manner given the recent games

No Arkansas fan talked shite in 2008 or 2009... maybe in 2010, but the game was extremely close

In 2011 I'm pretty sure most of us didn't think we were going to beat you

I mean I'm not saying they're a bad team, because they're not. They're a great team, but it just seems like we've had their number recently, similar to Alabama having our number

And I doubt a letdown occurs this season. JLS won't be calling any plays and will instead leave it to the two Pauls. I trust both of them since they're good coaches

Now certainly losing Petrino is going to hurt after this year (although it 2013 was going to hurt even if he had stayed) and we'll just have to see who Long hires

So Ole Miss is the only SEC team on our schedule that you think will have more than 2 losses when we play them?

I'm not too good with math but that doesn't seem possible.

SEC West FTW.

If you're talking about people just outright saying Ark is going to beat Alabama, I agree.
But just liking your teams chances is not the same thing.

That is a very reasonable statement.

Very high expectations for UGA and Carolina this year. We'll see if either or both deliver. I wouldn't bet against them right now though.

Pick their losses:

Jackson State
Auburn
Troy
South Alabama
Kentucky
Tennessee
Mid Tennessee
Alabama
A&M

LSU
Arkansas
Ole Miss

I would say 7-2 is very likely:
Jackson State - W
Auburn - Push
Troy - W
South Alabama - W
Kentucky - W
Tennessee - Push
Mid Tennessee - W
Alabama - L
A&M - Push

One loss and 3 games can go either way. If MSU wins 2 of 3 between A&M, Tenn, and Auburn, they reach 7-2.

Oh so you've only thought you'd win the last two seasons? My bad. Yall must gain more confidence the more years you get beat down in a row.
