We still have the UT-Martin game... That'd be 3 wins.

We still have 6 SEC games left, with two of them being Auburn and Mizzou...... That'd be 5.

We'd have to beat 1 of Bama, Ole Miss, Miss State, and Ole Miss....

But Arkansas can do this.....

Today was a must win to keep bowl hopes alive. We still have an uphill climb to get there, but it's possible.

This was the first, and probably most important, piece of the puzzle. We have some very winnable games left on the schedule.

That and stop the colossal mental mistakes by coaches and players in crucial situations.

That fake field goal... . I figured that was the frickup that would lead to this loss, but we managed to play a team less clutch than we are.

Found it funny how our 4 most winnable games(UT-Martin, Auburn, Miss State, MIZZOU) are all at home.....

I honestly think we're better than a lot of teams left on our schedule. We just have to quit shooting ourselves in the foot. It stopped at the end of last year and we ran trains on people. We are fine when we can just play football. People need to get healthy and we'll be alright. We're a better football team than Auburn, Mizzou, and Mississippi State. Today we found out that LSU still doesn't have a QB. The same coaching staff that held LF7 to jack shite last year is still here this year. Personnel is different, but when you don't have to worry about the pass at all, you can just win with numbers. It all comes down to execution and coaching. Stop the stupid penalties and get back to being the smart, efficient team we were at the end of last year and this season could turn out alright.

It won't matter that LSU has 4net if Bama can key in on the run game. They will shut that down and LSU will be shitty like they always are post Bama loss.

We're definitely better than our record. It took one of the strangest stat lines ever to lose to Toledo. That was a fluke loss if I've ever seen one. We also should have beaten A&M if not for the yips. We had no issues moving the ball against them but just had an epic choke for the second year in a row.

I would say the only for sure loss on the schedule is Bama. Auburn, State and Mizzoy all have issues and are beatable. LSU and Ole Miss are winnable just because Smith shut them down totally last year.

Bama is winnable. We'll likely get blown out, but I've thought that about our last two games and it didn't happen.

Our run defense is good and it should keep us in the game. We're not anyone's bitch.

It hurts when i think just how close to 2-0 we were. Oh well, most seem to think aTm is the class of the SEC, top 4 at least, so maybe we arent as bad as most seem to think we are

Excuse my negativity, but who really cares about going to the turd bowl? I'm still stuck on the preseason hype and the previous three games we lost. My butt will just not stop hurting, even after a W.

Hmmmm...sounds more like BERTfrmFay than a DarrionFrmArk.

I'll be watching you for downvotes and negative comments in my Bert is fat, Bert is stupid, Bert should be fired posts. FYI...I do think you'd be fun to have a beer with Bert. I just don't know that I just your stratergery or crisis management. But I would shut down a bar with you.

"If we get healthy"?

Majority of our injuries to key players are season ending. Besides Hatcher, who can actually even come back? If Hatcher can even come back at all?

They health of this team scares me down the stretch. I think that the injuries at WR have actually helped build depth and shown us some young talent that will develop faster out of necessity. We are SCARY thin at LB now and the guy I wanted to see there is now at FB out of necessity. We absolutely can't lose another key skill guy on either side of the ball.

No doubt.

I'd just like to get out of Bama without injury. I refuse to get my hopes up about that game. They always curb stomp us down there.

We're going to be doomed by some MASSIVe special teams errors. It's always a given at the BD.
