Yeah, plenty of people pre-season had those as losses. We are doing great. I see 8-4 as a worse case scenario where we drop LSU, Kentucky, Alabama, and Georgia. 9-3 is what I actually think is most likely, with losses to either LSU or Kentucky. If we beat LSU, which I think will be a tough game but one we can win with good play, then our chances of going 10-2 go way up, but I would not be shocked to go 9-3 with a loss to Kentucky. We are definitely better and should beat them most days, but a bad day and they can win.
So in order of probable outcomes in mind: 1. 9-3 (AL, GA, LSU) 2. 10-2 (AL, GA) 3. 9-3 (AL, GA, KY), 4. 8-4 (AL, GA, LSU, KY). Of course there are other possibilities including we go 11-1 or 12-0 or that we drop some games to some teams we absolutely expect, but those scenarios are very unlikely I think. 11-1 is more likely than 7-5 imho. If that happened, I think beating AL is more likely than beating GA. All of this is conjecture on my part of course, but I think reasonable.
