This is my thing. Most fans talk smack about teams they beat, but I like to pump them up. It makes us look better when teams we beat keep winning. I never understood when winning fans would chant "So and so sucks" after a win. That would mean you just beat a team that sucks. Not so impressive.

So, according to that logic, I'll argue that Florida is the second best team in America, at least so long as they don't lose another game. However, that may backfire if we were to somehow end up in Atlanta and have to play them again.

They're probably not ready for Arkansas just yet. I think they take one of Ole Miss, A&M and UGA. Bama will go in dry.

UGA and AU appear to be at least somewhat comparable teams, so we'll probably win by 30.
Been saying that since y'all lost to Tennessee

You think Georgia beats Au by 30?

It was a joke based on the series' recent history. For 7-8 years now, it seems like UGA wins big unless AU is just a way better team (2010, 2013).

It's possible. Look at UGA last year. They lose inexplicably to South Carolina and get pummeled by UF, but beat the ever loving crap out of Mizzou, Auburn and Arkansas. Last year was a weird one for UGA.

We have to play them there, and it will be their super bowl--like it is every year.

Pretty standard actually.

Florida is a better team than Georgia right now, but I wouldn't be surprised if Georgia just beat the shite out them in two weeks.

When you think Georgia's got it figured out, we lay an egg. When you think Georgia's done, look out.

Auburn will trip someone. They have some talent just haven't played all that well.

I attended typing classes at Auburn. Sorry for the "there" when it was supposed to be "their." Sue me.

They will trip a team in the next 2 weeks IMO. That defense is shaky, but the oline and QB showed improvement vs UK.

Every team left on our schedule should be to some degree.

-Arkansas: sucks
-Ole Miss: not good
-Idaho:
-Texas A&M: bi-polar
-Georgia: sucks without Chubb
-Alabama: rivalry game in Jordan Hare

All that yet most posters think Baylor is shite because of the schedule they've played. It's not the loses that bothers me, it's the way they've looked. They have the worst qb in the league and needed a blind line judge to beat Jax St. I would be amazed if they win more than 1 more conference game from here on. But Bret may Bert it up and they sneak a win out this weekend. I doubt it but I'm not the most confident person. We still win by a TD if both teams play good football.

I'm not that worried right now honestly. I worry a little every game, no matter the opponent but I'm not highly worried this week. I just have a feeling we take them. I had the same feeling TN week.

I think 2 wins in their remaining games is about their ceiling, based on their performance so far. I'd say right now they have the best chance of beating Ole Miss and Georgia, with Arkansas right behind them. I don't see them beating A&M or Bama at this point.


I wouldn't be surprised if they lost all of them either.

The way Allen is throwing I'm worried about Vandy too.

Chance of winning FPI (rounded)

Arkie 29%
Ole Miss 29%
TAMU 21%
UGA 38%
Idaho 98%
Bama 23%

So this would point to 2.5 wins.. so 6-6 to 7-5...
