I think we can go 7-0 in home games, including 4-0 in SEC home games.
Auburn: We won our last two home games against Auburn in 2021 and 2023 by 17+ points each, and the home team has won the last 4 games in this series.
Mississippi State: they finished 2-10 for the first time since 2003 and with a winless 0-8 SEC record for first time since 2002. In fact, Mississippi State has lost 12 consecutive SEC games, all of them by double digits since a 7-3 road win at Arkansas on 10/21/2023.
Florida: They will be coming off a tough home game against Texas, and we will be coming off a much easier home game against Mississippi State. Billy Napier is good for exactly one SEC road win each year: 2022 Texas A&M, 2023 South Carolina, and 2024 Mississippi State.
South Carolina: We are 5-0 in home games against South Carolina, and 3 of those 5 wins were by 13+ points. Also, the home team has won the last 4 games in this series. Because we will be coming off a tough road game at Missouri, and South Carolina will be coming off a bye week, I think it will be our toughest home game.
I think Arkansas and Missouri are the most winnable road games. Arkansas has not played well in home games against Power 4 opponents. Dating back to a 49-26 home loss to Alabama on 10/1/2022, they have lost 9 of their last 11 home games against Power 4 opponents, and 6 of those 9 home losses were by 10+ points each. That's why I think Arkansas is our most winnable road game. Missouri went an undefeated 7-0 at home, but all 5 of their home wins against Power 4 opponents were decided by 7 points or fewer.
