9-3 regular season

Lots of young talent returning and as favorable a schedule one could ask for.

2 losses could happen with any SEC schedule, but 3 with this one would be a travesty given the talent and depth of coaches/analysts/staff/etc UA has to put it all together.

9-3 or 8-4 would be disappointing, but 7-5 is unacceptable

If BO doesn't win 7 regular season games, I'll stick pins in his bald-headed voodoo doll.

Anything worse than 9-3 in the regular season.

10-2 is the expectation
9-3 would be disappointing
There's no way this roster should lose 4 or more regular season games.

Yup. I want some more excitement when we play. Aside from Bert’s mouth potential there hasn’t been any pretty much since the 4th and 25 game. Make Arkansas fun again, Chad!

anything less than 10 wins is unacceptable in StarkVegas in 2018. This team is too talented

This is very realistic. I do think not winning the east would be unacceptable We do have the best roster of any team in the West. Does not mean we can just show up and win. Being the hunted vs the hunter is a mindset I would say 9-3 and no SECG appearance would be unacceptable.

anything worse than 8-4 is unacceptable with the talent we are returning off an 8-4 regular season.

Honestly if Nick doesn’t go undefeated this year with this schedule and the kind of QB, I’ll be a bit perplexed.

We get Auburn at home as well as LSU.

You tell me:

Return a really good QB that owns the SEC record for 100 yard rushing games

Return a 1,000 yard rusher at TB and his back-up is better than he is

Return 4 starters and 8/9 from one of the country's best OL's last season

Improved talent at WR added to a young group in 2017

1st team in SEC history to return 2 1st team all-SEC guys on the DL and plenty of quality depth

Good at LB including a Freshman All-SEC player

Really good at Safety with the returning SEC interception leader

Experience at CB

Upgraded offensive coaching staff.

I don't disagree that you guys will have a great team, but I don't know if it will go as well as you'd like.

This isn't me trying to troll you, I just think it is a lot to do. Everyone else is reloading, new hires have been made (including your own), and most importantly it's a new year. You might have a great team, but you still have Alabama, Auburn, and LSU ahead of you all. Still interested to see how Jimbo fares as well at A&M.

I can tell my team will have a rough season and I think a lot of games will be hard fought this year. Not saying you all can't do it, I just don't see it for you all.

Best of luck though

5-7. Unacceptable but not shocking. Would be satisfied at 7-5.
