You think they'll beat Tennessee?



Yes. I realize it's tough for UK to win out.

I'll take Missouri I guess. I don't think we have the depth on defense and injuries are mounting.

State’s schedule is too tough and too many injuries.

Kamario and Fluff are both going to miss a few weeks. State likely losses to LSU and Oklahoma because of it. We'd have to run the table from there to have a chance. If they are both healthy by Texas, I'm not writing off any game.

None of these teams make the playoff. This happens every year.

State would have to beat Ole Miss. if their second loss is Ole Miss, the way we do things in college football, recency bias would knock them out.

Missouri-Ole Miss winner looks really good for the playoff.


We still have to play:

Mizzou
Texas
Auburn
Georgia
Oklahoma
Mississippi State

Mathematically, finishing 10-2 or better is a near impossibility.

I truly think the 9 game SEC schedule effectively will end the chances for a lot of SEC schools. In fact, we may only get 1 or 2 teams in.

If all 3 are 10-2 then I think Mizzou would have the most impressive resume. That said the chances of all 3 finishing 10-2 are basically zero.

“If all 3 are 10-2 then I think Mizzou would have the most impressive resume. That said the chances of all 3 finishing 10-2 are basically zero.”

But they lost to MSU. MSU isn’t going 10-2 anyway with the injuries, so it’s a moot point.
