You sure about that? That murderer’s row of a schedule only gives you 5 auto wins this year. Unless you can’t squeak by Vandy again.

I'll be legitimately shocked if we get more than 2-3 wins this season.

I am very happy with what Drinkwitz and the other coaches have done so far. Yes Drinkwitz did miss out on some players but this team is by far better than the one from a year ago.

You need to give DeBoer at Alabama 3 years just like Kelly at LSU.

I love how they are picking all the teams with new QB's at the top of the conference. It will never happen that way.

Everything else aside, I just don't see Tennessee at 9-3.


Vols have a weak schedule and defense SHOULD be as good as last year. Question will be how much Nico held up the offense last year and if the new QB can hit the deep balls Nico continuously missed.

No! DeBoer has been at Alabama for only 1 full year.

It might explain the timing of Joe C’s retirement announcement. He doesn’t want to be the one to fire his last hire.


Nonsense.

Joe C's announcement of his impending retirement was structured to give Venables & staff more runway in terms of job security, not less.

Kiffin is going to be a laughing stock if he goes 8-4. That is not a good look for Kiffin with what he had been given to spend to get a second chance to make the playoffs this coming season.


Ole Miss spent significantly less in the portal than last year. They're replacing the entire offense and half of the defense so 8-4 wouldn't be too upsetting.

It was my understanding that Bama was the far superior program and DeBoer the far superior coach.

My bad.

Why?

DeBoer took over a playoff team, Kelly took a 6-7 team.
