re: How many games does Ole Miss win in 2013?

Gotta go get brew for the game! Be back in bit

Will LSU be better all around than last year?

OFFENSE

Defenitly. NO QUESTION!!!

Top 2 rushers return. Plus opening game starter at RB from '12 will be back from injury.

Best FB in college football and his backup.

Top 4 WRs

Oline returns four starters plus a fifth that has started and played against SEC competition.

Returning starter at QB.

For those rebs that thought the LSU "O" was bottom of the SEC and ole miss "O" was top of the line. rebs scored less than 20 points total on the season than LSU, about 1.5 pts more per game.

DEFENSE

Has the potential to be better.

DBs will be more experienced. Tigers started a true freshman at CB (freshman all american). Nickle back (freshman all sec) and dime back were both freshmen. Third safety was a true soph. Those four will have another year in the system and should show marked improvement.

The LB corp will be the BEST the tigers have field in a while. The '12 LB recruiting class was the BEST EVER for LSU. They are now a year into the system.

Two of the '12 recruits split the starts at one of the OLB spots last season. Tigers also return a starter with 100+ tackles from '12.

Starting D-line will be fine. SEC quality talent there. Question will be finding a couple of DTs and DEs to finish off the tigers usual ten man rotation.

So YES I think tigers will be BETTER all around than '12.

The only thing LSU needed was it for it's DEFENSE to wake up and play some football. That's EXACTLY what happened in the fourth quarter.

rebel "O" had one first down on last five possessions of the game. Long pass play got them to around the LSU 15. Tigers then proceeded to force THREE CONSECUTIVE negative plays for rebel "O". ole miss then MISSED a 54 yd FG.

LSU then took possession and CRAMED the ball down the rebels throat and drove to winning TD.

LSU was down to 62 scholarship players avialable when we played ole miss. It's not like the tigers drssed all 85 scholarship players.

8 or 9

I could easily see them going 10-2 (11-2 with bowl win). They are due a win against LSU, and I truly believe this is the season that Freeze beats them and gets true national recognition for his coaching. I believe our losses will come from Alabama (obviously) and one of the Texas schools we play. I feel very confident about this group of football players. They are working their arses off and are playing under a coach who gets every bit out of his players. All things are looking up in Oxford.

well it's way too early for this but....

Aug. 31 at Vanderbilt- toss
Sept. 7 Southeast Missouri- win
Sept. 14 at Texas- toss
Sept. 21 OPEN
Sept. 28 at Alabama- loss
Oct. 5 at Auburn- win
Oct. 12 TEXAS A&M- loss
Oct. 19 LSU- loss
Oct. 26 IDAHO- win
Nov. 2 OPEN
Nov. 9 ARKANSAS- win
Nov. 16 TROY- win
Nov. 23 MISSOURI- win
Nov. 30 at Mississippi State- win

7 wins 2 tosses 3 losses

so let's say 8-4.

Ole Miss board. This thread only concerns them.

FIFY

And Ole Miss dressed only 59 against LSU last year. I think both teams will be improved next year. Do I think we are guaranteed a win? No, but I think OM has a legitimate chance for a win.
