I fully expect Alabama to finish the season either 10-2 or 11-1. Absolute worst case scenario is 9-3.

8-5. It's the expectation Malzahn has set over the past 3 years apparently

7-5

I think Nick Starkel could have been the QB last year, and we wouldn't have been much worse off than Knight. Has a very live arm and should make the most of Christian Kirk's last year, not to mention that we have real weapons at the TE position since the first time in a WHILE. Should enable a pretty balanced offense with Trayveon Williams getting more touched and even 'serviceable' OL play.

On defense we have a couple NFL-level talent guys at DT and RS-F Justin Madubuike should be on your radar, if he isn't already. Should see time at DE and DT in 2017. Linebacker has a 2nd yr Dodson, 1st yr 5 star Anthony Hines, and a Senior at Mike. I expect modest improvement, with some real reasons to be happy about 2018. Our secondary should be the 2nd most secure part of the defense, namely at the safety position. Armani Watts will have Larry Pryor out there instead of Justin Evans, which should lend to better tackling overall from the unit.

I like there is ZERO hype around this team this year, and think a 7-5 finish would make for an extremely optimistic outlook heading into 2018.

You have no idea how many times I've thanked Auburn. Hated the Les Miles
Run ,run ,run , punt offensive game plans. It's nice to be excited about football again.
Coach O has the best D coordinator in football and hired a top notch O coordinator.
Great time to be a Tigah!

7-5 and the Arkansas faithful who barely gruntled begin to move into disgruntled land. Bert gets another year, which is good for him because the team should be fairly good the year after this.
