Ole Miss Expectations vs. Results - Word?

I anticipated a 10-2 year with losses at LSU and at A&M. There are a lot of what-ifs but it's about what I expected so I'm cool with it. The Arkansas game was just a shitstorm of bad breaks that you come to expect as an Ole Miss fan. Next year has always been the year we invade buttholes.

The overwhelming majority of our posters predicted us to go 9-3 this season, bitch.

Obviously, we're disappointed we beat ourselves in Baton Rouge and experienced the single most heartbreaking play in SEC history. However, we beat two top ten teams, restored order within the Magnolia State, and have a chance at ten wins.

Remember, we went 2-10 in 2011. Hugh is building a great program here and everyone knows it.

No argument, just heard (not on this board) social circles in Nashville this was the year for NCS run.

Agreed on Freeze, he is the real deal. Should have a bright future with him.

Thanks

We deserved to lose to LSU (we were outplayed, Bo went full retard and LSU made the big plays at the crucial moments)

We should've won the Auburn game, but luck wasn't in our favor. Luck is need to make a legit championship run (Auburn last year, FSU this year, etc)

We didn't show up to the Arkansas game and were dominated from the opening kick-off.

Taking those losses into account as well as the big wins this year (both at home with bama and state as well as big performances on the road at A&M) and beating above average OOC opponents in Boise State, Memphis and ULL, I am very pleased with the year we had and the direction we are going in as a program. Freeze needs to improve his playcalling, but there's no doubt the guy can recruit his arse off and get his teams to play up for big games.

I was expecting 10-2 with losses to Auburn and Arkansas. LSU was a rage loss for me. Arky I knew was the classic "We Are Ole Miss" loss of the season. I had a feeling we'd beat Bama and State though.

No there wasn't

Most predicted anywhere from 8-4 to 10-2. Sitting at 9-3 I'd call it a successful season with plenty of room to improve. We're still a long way from peaking but continue to improve year by year syncing HF areived

Compared to beginning of season expectations, this is a great year. Compared to expectations when we were ranked No. 3 and 7-0, it's a little disappointing. But compared to expectations after Arkansas disaster--thrilled. Overall, happy with beating the only two teams ranked No. 1 in the CFP rankings (State and Bama), being in the SEC and playoff hunt until the next to last game of the year and feeling like we can compete with anyone.
