Pretty much this right here. This schedule is much easier than last years. There should be 5 wins on that schedule and 3 to 4 others that are very winnable, with 2 of those winnable games at home. The roster is already better than last years imo and I seriously hope there is a real improvement in coaching on both sides of the ball. Based on all that I really think 7 or 8 wins should be the goal. As others have mentioned though, QB play will be the real deciding factor. Upgrade there, I think 8 or 9 wins is even possible.

For those expecting 6-6 or 7-5:

We have 4 gimme wins in UMass, Samford, Vandy, and NMS. If we lose one of those - the season is doomed.

We have 5 very winnable games where I think we go 4-1 or 5-0. California, Ole Miss, Miss State (new coach), Arkansas and Texas A&M.

The remaining three:
Georgia, Alabama, and LSU - we have 2/3 at home.

I don’t see how we win against any of those teams unless our QB play takes a dramatic leap forward.

In summary, for those expecting 7 wins - I don’t think you understand how dysfunctional Auburn’s team was the last 3 years with Gus and Harsin.

We are on the same page again. We will prove people wrong.
