Ut and Ok are definitely looking beatable.

Everyone looks pretty beatable, but tenn offense seems like a tough matchup for us.

Any team that gives up 500 yards to Ark probably is gonna have some issues with Bama.

Y’all got to get use to every damn week we can get beat. We’ll have a better chance to win than most but parity is here.

Good thing is their defense is a pile of garbage

It's all Sankey's fault for not adding bottom feeder programs like UNC, NC State, UVA, VT, etc. while B1G expansion has brought in Nebraska, Maryland, and Rutgers over the years.

Several of the teams you mentioned are much better than Missouri historically. The past 20 years have been the golden age of Missouri football.

They have gotten a huge benefit from joining the SEC.

In the 1960's Missouri under Dan Devine won more Big Eight games than anybody, but Oklahoma and Nebraska go all the ink.

The road games have always been my biggest concern. We show up at home, but the OU game is concerning because of a mobile QB and they have a legit defense that can get after the QB.

What? He’s probably the least mobile of QBs play on the remaining schedule.

They have definitely punched above their weight since joining the SEC. Gary Pinkel was a very underrated coach.

Meh...they only scored 34 against Arkansas. Think Bama has a better defense especially talent wise than Arky.

UT will prepare/play better against Bama. Arky has been garbage and that was a classic look ahead game prior to the game with Bama. Wommack better have his stuff together.

However, UT has played an average schedule and really jumped on UGA early with the emotion and home crowd and ended up getting beat. UGA owned most of the second half IIRC. UGA not all that great but took us to the wire on their home field. Every game going to be one score I am afraid.

We could beat every SEC team left on our schedule, we could lose to every SEC team left on our schedule.

Focus and continual improvement from the whole team is what will get us to Atlanta and the CFP.

The SEC is like the NFL now where the 27-24, 24-21, late cover 30-14 wins we've put up are essentially the norm. There haven't many true blowout wins in conference games this year and if they did happen then Kentucky was involved in the proceedings. There have been a handful of backdoor cover type games like Alabama over Vanderbilt or TAMU over Florida where some late TDs make the final score look more comfortable than how the game played for 55 minutes or so.

It'd probably be a losing bet - because one of those backdoor late TDs would submarine it - but it wouldn't be a terrible bet to say if Alabama wins out that they will win every remaining conference game by one score (8 or less).
