they could develop their own momentum that increases the chance of victory in any given game.

So a lot hinges on early performances at Vanderbilt and Texas.



Actually, one thing I think will help this team is their ability to shake off bad performances. I was entirely surprised by how we played the following weeks after Texas, Vandy, aTm and LSU. We showed ZERO signs of hangovers from bad losses.

This season, we'll rely on that same toughness again. Therefore, I don't think a lot hinges on our performance in the Vandy and UT games. I think we'll be able to bounce back just fine whether we win or lose either game.

I also believe that we WILL gain momentum down the stretch as this team gels. We'll know which freshman can contribute early and we'll have positions set and starters locked in by then. Assuming QB and RB play is consistently above average, we have a VERY strong chance of finishing the 2nd half of the schedule on a 6-0 run. Not to mention 5 of our last 6 are at home.

I happen to think we are set up to win 7 and a bowl game.

2014 is going to be fricking STRONG.

OM season is going to come down to these games:

@Vandy
@Auburn
LSU
A&M
@State

They will lose to Texas and Bammer
They will beat UPig, Mizzou, SE MSt, Idaho, and Troy

How many of those other 5 games will they win?

Vandy? Maybe but it's on the road and openers are always tough
@Auburn? Maybe, but Auburn has a week off to get ready while OM is playing in T-Town
LSU? Maybe, but beating LSU is always tough- and now they should have an improved offense
A&M? Maybe, but A&M's offense likely won't turn it over 6 times this trip to Oxford
State? Maybe, but the home team is 12-2 in the last 14 Egg Bowls. And State will be pretty good also

They need the Vandy game as much as any, because losing that one and being 1-3 headed to Auburn puts alot of pressure on that football team and all its hype.

you will lose Moncrief, Scott, and 3 starters on the OL- plus Sawyer, Marry, and Shackleford.

I think you can replace most of that- but will still keep you from climbing any higher than 8 wins probably
