I get it. Until we beat Florida some of y'all refuse to count that as a win.

A&M is in turmoil

We have so much to prove against UGA for recruiting purposes.

No way. I said it NONE! No way we lose 3/4 of those games in that stretch. If we do, he will be forever known as Lyle to me.

10 wins SHOULD be the expectations.

Must be "battered vol syndrome".

Even Paul Finebaum is predicting we go 11-1 and win the East, surely his expectations should not exceed ours.

I'm trying to understand how they can win less than 10 games with that schedule, how they finished last season, all the starters coming back, increased depth at every position, and Bob Shoop. C'mon, gang, you leave Jumper at home and replace Jancek with Shoop - that's two more wins last season, much less this season.

10 meets expectations. 11+ is winning big. That's where it all points.

10-2 means we split the four game stretch. All other games should be w's. With our talent and experience I honestly am looking for 3-1 in that stretch.

Get 10 regular season wins and beat Florida and I will be happy.

I will be very happy if we make it to 11-1 or better and/or get to Atlanta.

On cloud 9 if we were to win the SECCG.

Not sorry I have high expectations for this season.

Missing a senior class? You will likely be tempering expectations next year because we have to replace Dobbs, JRM, and Sutton. Not to mention the juniors that likely bounce.

Schedule is light.

If you put much weight in these kinds of analyses, according to the 247 composite, Bama, TAMU, UF and UGA have all on average recruited better than us the last four years and thus according to that measure are all technically more talented than us. With that said, we have a bunch of three stars playing like 4 and 5 stars and more experience than any of them. I don't take that stretch lightly at all - all four of those games will be very tough. But I think we at least go 2-2.

Wish we had a bye before AM or Bama. Not sure if it'd make a difference either way but a week to heal up would be nice

A reranking would be nice. Dobbs, Sutton etc I'm sure would be ranked higher. I won't be shocked at 2-2 in that stretch. Better be the right 2 though. Victories over just AM and UGA ain't gonna cut it for me

Ha-ha, that doesn't always come across in your posts.

The thought of 10-2 excites me. The thought of it being realistic that we could do more excites me as well.

People expecting 12-0 or expecting an SEC championship are setting themselves up to be disappointed.

I look at our roster and I see about 4 areas of concern. Defensive tackle depth. Solidifying the OT position. Passing game. Defensive back.

So those areas concern me. Hopefully we can answer those questions this season. Reality is that we have areas that aren't SEC championship caliber yet. I think some in here confuse me pointing this out as being a Debbie downer. I'm not. I'm just pumping the brakes while others are looking for plane tickets to watch us in a 4 team playoff.

I need 10 wins

There is a mulligan to play if the injury bug begins to kill off in key positions.

But if relatively healthy, 10 wins has to happen
