Very reasonable prediction, probably wildly wrong.

Whenever you go through and predict things and wind up with 9 of 14 teams between 3-5 and 5-3 you know that the chances of it happening are slim to none.

I'll take 10-2 and the Peach all day

My crystal ball showed losses @ Tennessee and @ Auburn (and then Alabama), but wins over Florida, @ Notre Dame and @ Georgia Tech.

I was going to post my predictions but they're exactly the same as yours except I would put UGA at 9-3 (6-2) instead of 10-2 (6-2), but that is just because I am mentally ill and will not allow myself to be optimistic about the season until UGA proves they're not going to screw something up.

And went to the Texas Bowl last year and Music City year before Liberty. The 4th game in that tier is the Belk Bowl and you are the farthest school in the conference from it.
When you have the same record every year you are eventually going to go back to a bowl game you went to a few years prior.

Bowl game win to get to 10 brah. Or, winning at Clemson (which totally could happen).

I'd would be fine with 7-5 and Music City. 2018 should be a good year for State.

Yep, but it is funny to see some bowl predictions in which you play in a bowl you just played in. Some of the projections are just extremely lazy.

There are a group of 6 shite bowls, right? No reason to go to the same one twice in 4 years. It'll be Belk, Outback, or Taxslayer (I think I remembered the right ones)

Agreed. You almost never go back to the same place you went the year before (other than Georgia who seems to have done that a few times the last decade).
However, there is a limited number of bowls per record tier, and if you always go 7-5 and are a geographic outlier.........chances are you are gonna hit the same one up a few times. I was kind of shocked Arkansas went to Charlotte last year.

Generally Outback is a 8-9 win teams.
Generally Taxslayer is going to want a team from the East.
Belk did take Arkansas last year so they could be an option I guess, as they don't see to be tied down by geography as much.

Didn't most of those rules go out the window a few years back.
It goes Playoffs, NY6, Citris, Group of 6, then Indy & Birm (not sure if they have any order). The SEC selects the group of 6.
