re: How many games does Bert win next season?

Honestly, Nicholls State will be the only easy win for ya'll. Arky will beat UAB too, but it won't be a blowout.

I think ya'll will beat Texas Tech, but Kingsbury is a good coach, so don't mark it down just yet.

Northern Illinois is a good program, and has been for a long time now. They've beaten SEC teams before *coughBamacough* and I could easily see the Huskies winning that games.

But here is my guess for ya'lls season:

at Auburn - L
Nicholls State - W
at Texas Tech - W (toss up)
Northern Illinois - L (toss up)
Texas A&M - W (toss up)
Alabama - L
Georgia - L
UAB - W
at Mississippi State - L
LSU - L
Ole Miss - L (toss up)
at Missouri - L

4-8 (1-7)

Best case: 5-7
Worst case: 2-10

Nov. 22 Ole Miss* LOSS
Nov. 29 at Missouri* LOSS

3-4 wins, outside chance at 5...which would be a win against Ole Miss, Mizzou, Mississippi State, Texas A&M or possibly LSU.

Definite losses with Auburn, Alabama and Georgia.

God an upset here would rustle the Aubie universe for years to come. It might just end Gus career

Laughable statement.

This place will crash if Arkansas were to somehow win.

On the bright side, all of the 2014 Auburn posters would disappear with a quickness so at least some good for the board would come out of it.

I just don't understand how you keep saying that two of your OOC opponents went to a bowl, but dismiss the fact that one of these very same teams got drummed by one of our OOC opponenets that's supposedly so terrible?

Southern Miss and Boise were both scheduled when they were better than they are now. Also, y'all were supposed to play Boise when they were still good but pushed it back.

South Alabama is better than ULL.

UAB and Memphis, is there really any difference?

UT Martin and PRES? Not really different.

All I have been saying this whole thread is there is not a big difference, so the person that was saying ours was a joke was in the end joking on his own team as well.

Swap Texas Tech and Texas A&M, and change Mizzou to an L IMO. 5 wins

Ole Miss only sure win!

I think they get bowl eligible this year.

No, I don't think so this year. We'll be better, but the record might not reflect it so much. Probably not bowl eligible until the next season. 5-7 (and I'm being a little optimistic).

Aug. 30 at Auburn* L (but barely, maybe even an upset)
Sept. 6 Nicholls State W
Sept. 13 at Texas Tech W (we alway do well against former SWC teams)
Sept. 20 Northern Illinois L
Sept. 27 vs. Texas A&M* W
Oct. 11 Alabama* L
Oct. 18 Georgia* L
Oct. 25 UAB W
Nov. 1 at Mississippi State* L
Nov. 15 LSU* Toss up L (will be a good game as usual)
Nov. 22 Ole Miss* Toss Up W (hard to say, but in a toss up, I'm going with us)
Nov. 29 at Missouri* L

Yeah, I had N. Illinois down as a W earlier, when the schedule first came out, but I've changed it just because I think Auburn & Tech are going to be such tough games that I'm thinking we might lose one of the first two OOC games, and N. Illinois seems to be the more plausible loss.

I'll probably put them back as a W when football season gets closer. Hell, I might even have us winning 7 or 8 games when the season opens. I always seem to do that the closer it gets. All the hype & Razorback rah rah spirit gets to me every year & makes me BELIEVE, regardless of the odds.

Eta - beating GA in LR would be wonderful!! I'll probably have us down for a W against them about the first of August.
