New quarterback?

They will cancel the season due to Covid before that happens.

Florida and A&M got their new hires right. No debate on that. Difference is 2 games that they don't play every year. Am OOC Clemson and the east vs west. Blowout embarrassing home loss to Missouri happened under mullin too. Before you self loathe. Gtfo

A split would be a breakthrough. 6-7 wins is 10 wins with our schedule. People on here won't get that logic but going 7-3 would be a breakthrough season and anyone that follows cfb will agree.

did you watch the Ole Miss game last year?

it was a squeaker vs. the 4-8 Rebels.

would have been a loss without the defensive score

Jimbo is 2-5 in true road games

I don't think any of them are really fearful of us.

Into what? Ain't gonna be no playoffs

Going to lose more than 1 game going into Auburn if the team keeps skipping practice and lose focus. There are only 25 days of practice before the first game.

You do realize there are not really any "home" games, right?
Our home field advantage has gotten worse every year (yes I know, old Ag here..reality is hard for some of younger generation to grasp) and with 30 percent or so filled will be non-existent this year. Crowd will not impact a single home game.

Love the optimism... I'm feeling 6-3

I'll agree that given a very good competitive slate that an 8-1 (start) is as hard to predict as a 5-5. I doubt any team sweeps all opponents and I expect every team has more holes to fill than usual at the end. So I think teams with more depth will do better. We should be better off than the last two years.

Bama is sporting 8 to 10 first round draft picks. What the gumps are going due to Mond wont be pretty. But, I'll watch the train wreck.

I don't deny Bama sets up as our most likely loss. The rest is a matter of watching the actual game instead of piling on the team. Good teams surprise opponents. It's called coaching...

LSU has something like 3 returning starters.

Not saying we beat them, but they are far from the most certain loss.

IMO saying Bama is most vulnerable early is like saying my house is more likely to collapse today than it was yesterday. Sure it might technically be true, but there's really not much difference. Bama will be a well-oiled machine regardless of when we play and it will take flawless execution to beat them.

FIFY.

This program isn't losing to Miss State - a team that doesn't have near the firepower of A&M on offense nor the athleticism of the Aggies on defense.

And if this ain't the year you beat LSU - at home, double digit players to NFL, two new coordinators - then I don't know when you expect to beat them again. And it won't take 7 overtimes (even if it was allowed by the NCAA).

I agree with 8-1 heading into Auburn with the only loss being to Alabama.
No way we lose to LSU at home this year and it won't be a 74-71 game.
Beating Bama on the road is possible but not likely.

Did you mean a 74-72 7-OT game?

I agree with you that winning in Tuscaloosa is possible, but highly unlikely.

I think we will be 6-3, 7-2, or 8-1 heading into the Auburn game.

Automatic loss: at Alabama
Likely loss: at Auburn
Tossups: home games against Florida and LSU

Under Jimbo Fisher, we've gone 2-5 in true SEC road games. The only road wins were at 7-6 South Carolina in 2018 and 4-8 Ole Miss in 2019, and both wins were by seven points or less. In fact, we have not scored more than 26 points in any road game. We have not won in Starkville, Mississippi since 2012, but I believe we can finally win there. Also, we have back to back road games against South Carolina on 11/7 and Tennessee on 11/14. We are favored to win these three road games, but none of them are going to be easy.

Don't....

- sleep on Tennessee

- underestimate Leach.

Yes, four of Jimbo Fisher's six road loses were at Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, and LSU, but we also lost at 8-5 Mississippi State and 8-5 Auburn in 2018. I can understand losing at Mississippi State because that team had allowed just 13.2 points per game (2nd behind Clemson) that year. We led Auburn 24-14 with 5:14 left, but Auburn outscored us 14-0 to defeat us 28-24. Tennessee stunned that same Auburn team 30-24 on the road on 10/13/18. Before that win, Tennessee that had lost 11 straight SEC games, dating back to a 45-34 loss at Vanderbilt on 11/26/16 and opened 2018 with loses to West Virginia, Florida, and Georgia by 26 points each. That's why I believed we could win at Auburn on 11/3, even after a 28-13 loss at Mississippi State a week earlier.

3-0 vs my August prediction.

However, feeling much better about the Miss State game after they failed to score on their own yesterday!

9-1 leaving Auburn.

Since we're bumping prediction threads - there's .... apparently some freakin oracles in this one.
