Meh, most OM fans I know think 8-9 wins. Fairly realistic IMO.

Any list without Alabama is crap. I get why they would be left off..#1 or not, they ARE the strongest program right now...have been for 6 years...so Bama thinks they are badass and they are...they are also, in my opinion, the best program in history and they know that too...so what's delusional about that? Nothing. It's the imaginary national championships that have to put them in the top 10. No one else in the SEC does this...legit question though, do any other programs other than Alabama just sort of award themselves national championships and beat their chests about them? Follow up question, is there any other program where it was less necessary? That is a definite NO.

From the guy that invented them:
My advice, Bama, would be just to rip the bandaid off...demand that the PR department just make a correction. Folks will have a laugh and then it will be over...then Bama is the best now, and the best historically, no asterisk, no punchline. Just the best.

From the guy that invented them:
quote:
Atcheson and Watson said it's important to put Alabama's claim of 12 in context because other schools have added debated championships, too. "I tried to make Alabama football look the best it could look and just make it as great as it could possibly be," Atcheson said. "I was a competitor myself with the other schools, and what they bragged about and boasted about, I wanted people to know the best about my school." Asked why 12 is the right number, Watson replied: "I don't know that it is the right number. But that's the great thing about college football. I hope we never have a playoff.

The same media that are predicting Arkansas and Tennessee to win their divisions are the same ones saying we are delusional.
Go to the prediction thread to see what each fan base actually thinks. Arkansas fans think 9-3.
Eta: Article is also from June. Refers to Jonathan Williams and Alex Collins

They didn't include Mizzou on the list because they stand alone in delusion.
They lucked up and caught the East in a down period and think they are an elite team.
Once the East regains it's footing, Mizzou will be down there with UK and Vandy.

We never said we were elite. We just take care of the easy wins like you guys and Florida.

Bingo. We've had entire threads devoted to nothing but fan predictions, and with the exception of a few whackos, just about everyone from both our fanbases has predicted 8-4/9-3.
The media creates the hype, then just in case they're wrong, blames the hype they themselves created on the fans. All it does it perpetuate a false narrative, AND IT frickING PISSES ME OFF

Ole Miss fans are delusional for thinking they'll get 8-9 wins with 4 potential first round draft picks on the team? Yeah that's totally unrealistic

And you guys want to be just like Bama. You'll deny and say "not me" but your AD, supporters, former players (had a conversation with a member of the '83 squad and he claims a NC) and even state legislators want you to be just like Bama.
The Auburn hypocricy wreaks...
Hang in there little brother!

Interestingly, the Ole Miss fans I know have been really mild with their expectations.

Say what? You Mizzou fans have been talking like you're some championship caliber team.
UT and UF will regain their footing and the UT/UF game will once again decide the East.
Your chump team will be begging your old conference to let you back in.
