9-3 regular season and he stays is how I see it so far as what Sumlin has to accomplish.
I don't think a bowl win over Southwest Nevada State University really means much at all to the big money booster OR the average fan. So I don't think 9 wins AFTER the bowl is the measuring stick. In the old world we lived in where you could be 9 wins with the 9th coming in the Cotton Bowl against a legit program, yes. But in the SEC an 8 win team goes to one of the numerous Gross Florida Town bowls or the Music City or something crap like that to play a second-rate program, so that 9th win, if it comes from a bowl, means nothing.
The PRESIDENT of the University has already gone on record as saying we need to improve from being an 8-win type of program.

Sumlin is not going to be fired if he goes 9-4 (including a bowl), unless he has another 59-0, or something similar.
But I'm thinking 10-3 this season, so hopefully the statement above is not put to the test.
