Honestly, I expect to be disappointed.

LSU will not be a factor. How many times do we need to go down this unpaved road?

We'll go 11-1, win the SECC, and go to the playoffs. But barring an injury to Watson, Clemson should win the NC.

I'm hesitant to jump on the LSU championship bandwagon. Sure we return a lot and by all accounts made a great DC hire but we haven't seen the onfield product. Les and Cam still running the offense is cause for concern. I think 10-2 would be a successful season. Unless the beats are bad like last year.

I think I can speak for virtually all AU fans on tRant when I say that, no matter what our expectations for 2016 are, they will likely be almost completely wrong.


Honestly.

11/12 wins. Lose 2/3 to Bama, Arky, or OM. NY6 bowl.

10-2 or 11-1

Depends on the QB. Talent around him to carry the team though. Excited about the defense though.

9-3 and be in the east race. The offense should be better this year especially at the end of the season and the defense should have a small drop off.

Honestly, I expect A&M to finish 15-0 national champions.

I think we're going to lose a stunner in Florida, bounce back with a hard win against the Rebels, but after that, I don't know.

My honest expectations are for the team to get to bowl eligiblity - 6-6 at worst, but hopefully end with a winning record.

The schedule is easy enough to help the team a bit:

AT Vanderbilt: Win
AT Mississippi State: Toss-up
VS East Carolina: Win
AT Kentucky: Win
VS Texas A&M: Toss-up
VS Georgia: Loss

BYE WK

VS Massachusetts: Win
VS Tennessee: Toss-up
VS Missouri: Win
AT Florida: Toss-up
VS Western Carolina: Win
AT Clemson: Loss

I can barely find opponents that I would say are clear losses, and not toss-up games for us. Opponents that have their own issues with personnel or coaching staffs. Opponents that we played closely last season even with our shite team - that we had a chance to beat even with a somewhat mediocre defense or a healthy, experienced QB.

Get to a bowl game, and then Coach Muschamp and staff will have something to build from...

Honestly, 12-0

LSU will be tough but one dimensional offenses will be slaughtered by the Tide defense. Ole Miss scares me some and so do USC, Tennessee and A&M iß liable to make a gàme of it. Of course Arkansas and Auburn might keep it cloßé,

I have UGA going 8-4 or 9-3, the opener vs UNC truly is a toss up. UGA could be missing up to 4 players in their front 7 rotation against Hood who is a future pro, Chubb is a question mark and will this be Eason's 1st start? I do think the dawgs can be back in Atl. as soon as Dec. of 2017, a lot of young talent on this squad.
