The Dawgs will start ranked #1 or #2, but I see two losses regular season pretty easily, so 10-2.  I don't know the SEC tie breakers at all, haven't looked for them.

I'm thinking 9-3 or 10-2.  Games against Michigan, Georgia, OU will be quite tough. Rivalry games both AT Arkansas and AT Texas A&M are not going to be a cakewalk either.

Should be a really fun season in the SEC.

I don't see any largely probable losses beyond UGA/A&M/UM/OU.  So split those, and 10-2.  There is Vandy still.

Apparent media blackout on the hill, very little news at all, at least there is no bad news :) No AlaDAMNbama on the schedule! I like this new rotation already! 3 gimmes, then LSU, Ole Miss, Tenn and Texass at home.


Does Bobby Petrino still have "it"? Will Taylen Green be as effective as projected? Will the Oline step up? RBs will be good as will the Defense. Getting to 6 and 6 will require some serious good luck plus everything clicking just right. If the Hogs get to a bowl, that will extend Pittman's tenure for one more year.

Florida could start 5-1 and still not make a bowl.  The schedule is stupid.

I'll take a blind shot at UGA, which I get wrong every year of course:

Clemson  W  38-17
Tn Tech   W   52-13
Kentucky  W  34-20

Alabama  L  27-23
Auburn      W  35-20
Miss State  W  45-24

Texas     L   27-23
Florida   W   47-24
Ole Miss  W  42-28

Tenn      W  45-35
UMass    W  52-16
GaTech   W  48-17

8/31 - Notre Dame..... L
9/7 - McNeese State... W
9/14 -  at Florida.......  L
9/21 - Bowling Green.. W
9/28 - Arkansas......... W
10/5 - Missouri.......... W
10/19 - at Mississippi St.. L
10/26 - LSU............... L
11/2 - at South Carolina.. W
11/16 - New Mexico St..... W
11/23 - at Auburn....... W
11/30 - Texas............. L


That's 7-5 and probably optimistic.  Losses against any of Arkansas, South Carolina and Auburn are also possible.  I don't think we lose all of them and conversely could win any of ND, Florida and Texas.  But realistically somewhere between 6-6 and 8-4... I think.

Our WR corps is shallow, no homerun threat at RB and our Oline sucks.  Weigman has 1st round talent, but we don't have much around him.  Makes for a mediocre year. 

When does baseball season start?

Smart would pull all of his hair out allowing so many points!

You guys must think the Horns will be the 2nd coming

I think we will win more then we lose but 10 and 2 is way up there
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

Texas is highly ranked in every preseason poll I've seen so folks must think they will be pretty solid.

The first thing I look at is "Do they have a solid returning QB?" for any team.

Good returning QB, good o-line.  That's a huge part of the puzzle.

Horns lost a lot to the draft-- 11 players-- but several of them were 3*s that got coached up by the current staff.  That's a new development in Austin, and a welcome one.

Our O-line is the big question mark.

9-3 seems reasonable. 10-2 might be possible. So might 6-6.
