11-1.
I can realistically see the Egg Bowl, both teams being 11-1, and the Iron bowl, both teams being 11-1
Ole Miss already beat Bama
State already beat Auburn
I see Auburn beating Ole Miss
I don't see bama beating State, but it is possible.
But I will say 10-2, losing to UGA.
Going against Bama, who will also be 10-2

I must have missed the part in the season where Georgia is supposed to be good... Solid team at best, gave up 31 to Tennesee at home and almost lost.. Lost to a terrible South Carolina team, while this week was a solid win it's not like Arkansas is a great team by any means. There is not 1 good win so far on Georgia's schedule..

Eh it's possible but those teams look bad.
I think we get it rolling and finish 10-2. That would likely make us an extremely good 10-2 team. 9-3 is certainly possible, but I think we've got a lot more going for us than UGA, Alabama and Ole Miss in the intangibles department. We've certainly played bigger games and have better leadership than Ole Miss and Georgia, IMO. I think that'll push us to take 2/3, but obviously I won't be shocked if we drop 2 of those.
I'll have a better feel after we play the next one regarding the team's trajectory. Barring some real collapse in team moral or dropping one to what appear to be pretty unmotivated SCAR or A&M teams, I can't see this team losing 3 more games. I definitely don't think we'll lose all three of the big ones, and I'd really be interested in the theory for anyone who thinks we will.

I see Gurley coming back right before the Auburn game, crowd being crazy at UGA, and Mason will have his first big game.
I just don't see auburn winning to huge road games between Ole Miss and UGA.

that UT game was over a month ago. we have improved exponentially since then and anyone can see that. We haven't lost since the 2nd game. We've improved ever since.

Among the road games, Ole Miss arguably has the least home field advantage. I think you guys will be jacked up, but still, it's not UGA or Bama. I think Auburn will be able to score on Ole Miss. Not score a ton, but score enough to win. Your defense is elite, but I'm optimistic we're about to find a good offensive groove, and we have multiple ways to do that. I think Ole Miss may or may not be able to score against Auburn. Probably will, but I'll take Marshall over Bo in a clutch spot. I'll take Gus over Freeze. That doesn't mean I'm overly confident we'll win it, but those are my reasons.

I just feel like they're a better football team.
This isn't a flame, I'm not talking shite, that's just what I personally think. I could be dead wrong, I don't know. Just what I'm going with at the moment.

Completely agree. This team has the talent and potential to beat anyone if they'd re gelling. It's goin to be tough for them to consitentaly play their A+ game the rest of this schedule.
I'd also like to add IMO had we not lost Lawson and got hit hard with injuries to the O-line we are easily undefeated.

The KSU road victory is the best SEC road victory so far this season. Alabama over WVU is probable second. Bama's has not beaten a good SEC club.

Auburn actually has a pretty good pass D.
Ole miss running backs suck.
The Auburn game is going to require Bo to do a lot of running, even more than usual. I just don't see Bo running all over Auburns D, or having a great passing game.
It will be low scoring, with Auburn getting the W.

in other words, because you are a Auburn fan and Auburn just doesn't lose to ole miss or state college/Starkville....fair enough, thanks for giving me your reasons. and good luck with that.
