at USCe
at Arkansas
home to Florida
at LSU

Brutal. Obviously 4-0 would be the best case, but realistically? I would think Auburn fans would be extremely pleased with 2-2 but that doesn't really seem likely. 1-3 would be pretty good actually.

Dyer's gotta get 20 plus carries over that stretch. Maybe they could beat Florida at home and possibly USCe will flake out and find a way to lose.

Need to go 2-3 (win over Ole Miss and one other). I would take that now.

if we get a win in that stretch I'll be content. We should go 0-4 given how we've played recently.

only if Lattimore gets injured in practice this week, because I can't see him even getting tackled in the game

I would honestly take 1-3 in this stretch and be pleased. 7 wins is all im hoping for - and I'm not expecting it.

I thought 0-4 before the season, certainly feel that way now.

If we bench the old guys in our secondary (Bell, Thorpe, Bates, Freeman) and a few other missed tackle machines, and go with some youth, I like our chances to steal 1 or 2 games. Experience doesn't mean shite, if you can't tackle the guy with the ball.

We wont win again for a while. We will need to beat someone we are not as good as to get to a bowl.



We are not getting better. We are getting worse.

also Ted Roof being out 4 to 6 weeks recovering from appendicitis might help.

ETA: I wouldn't mind the aforementioned guys getting the flu for a few weeks either.

Lattimore having a huge day is a pretty safe bet, but Garcia could possibly implode enough for Auburn to find a way to win. I don't think its likely though.

We will have to win one against USC, UGA or Ark. None look likely but we could win one of them. My best guess is UGA since its late and we have a chance for Cam to come back.

In other words, the guys on defense that are still playing using the skills they learned in highschool and haven't yet learned the Chizik/Roof way to play defense.

They will probably lose out until the Iron Bowl, then upset an undefeated Bama team and celebrate a successful season.

Honestly, I would love to win 2 of them but I wouldn't be mad if we lost all four but looked liked we played well and show improvement. It was known that this was going to be rebuilding year but I expected us to play hard and at least show some potential. Right now it looks really rough.

We just gave up 300 yards to a team that didn't have 200 through the first 2 games combined. No matter how young our defense is and even if we were on third string players, that shouldn't happen.

Wish it was basketball season? For an AU fan to say that, you know it is bad.
