If we win every coin flip, we go 8-4... again!

My Thoughts:

We will lose to Florida, LSU and t.u.,

We will beat Notre Dame and everyone else to finish with a 9 - 3 record.
But will not make the playoffs with a 9 - 3 record.

I am not part of the Debbie Downer / Pot-Banger 8 - 4 None Believers....
We will be better - More Talented - Improved Coaching in Year 2....

floor 7-5, ceiling 10-2

i tend to think we will be better this year, but how much better will determine if we make the playoffs. my guess is somewhere in between which is improvement but not quite enough to make the playoffs. sound familiar? i say we go 9-3 and finish 13th in the nation.

I agree with your prediction of road losses at LSU and Texas, but I think we have a much better chance of beating Florida at home than Notre Dame on the road. Florida ended last season on a 4-game winning streak, but that included home wins over LSU and Ole Miss, one road win at Florida State, and one bowl win over Tulane.

1. Since 2018, we are 18-7 in SEC home games; 16-6 under Jimbo Fisher and 2-1 under Mike Elko.

2. Florida is 4-13 (3-11 SEC) in true Power 4 road games since 2021, 0-4 (0-4 SEC) in Dan Mullen's final season in 2021 and 4-9 (3-7 SEC) under Billy Napier. Billy Napier is good for exactly one SEC road win each year; 5-7 (2-6 SEC) Texas A&M in 2022, 5-7 (3-5 SEC) South Carolina in 2023, and 2-10 (0-8 SEC) Mississippi State in 2024. His only other road win came against 2-10 (1-7 ACC) Florida State in 2024. None of those 4 teams finished better than 5-7.

3. We will be playing our 3rd straight home game and should be coming off an easy win over Mississippi State. In contrast, Florida will be coming off a tough home game against Texas and playing the last game of a brutal 4-game stretch against LSU (away), Miami (away), bye week, Texas (home), and Texas A&M (away) in a span of 5 weeks. That means we will have home field, psychological, and physiological advantages over Florida.

In contrast, we have won lost 6 consecutive true road games to non-conference Power 4 teams since a 14-12 win at Pittsburgh in 2002.

2003: 35-19 loss at #18 Virginia Tech
2005: 25-24 loss at Clemson
2007: 34-17 loss at Miami
2017: 45-44 loss at UCLA
2019: 24-10 loss at #1 Clemson
2023: 48-33 loss at Miami

Note: I did not include our 10-7 win over Colorado in 2021 because it was at Mile High Stadium in Denver instead of Folsom Field, making it officially a neutral-site matchup. Also, I did not include our 41-21 loss at Utah in 2004 because Utah was in the Moutain West at the time of that game.

No one knows nuthin' until the game is played. Different team, Less knowledge of portal players than in the old high school senior recruits, and the same group of people were wrong last year.

Let's do more of these threads

Undefeated national champs.

If we win every coin flip we go st least 9-3 and probably 10-2.

I'm thinking 9-3 but not 100% sure how. Probably something like beat ND but lose to Arkansas or something like that.

This season is determined by Reeds accuracy.

8-4 ceiling

After last season's huge disappointment of November and beyond, I'm just going with a "prove it" or "show me" mentality. But if I had to put a number to the season, I'll go with 6-6. They will lose at Notre Dame, LSU, and tu bare minimum, with what will be a very difficult game in Arkansas as well which I'll just go ahead and say they'll lose to go with my new outlook on Aggie football.

Then they'll lose a game or two at home. Now I'm not so jaded as to suggest they'll lose to any of the chump games, but then I recall Bowling Green last season. Still, I think they'll win the 3 gimmes at home. Aside from the walk-off FG in 2020, we've never beaten Florida at home (while not losing to them in Gainesville other than the very first time we played out there in something like 1961). Show me you can beat the Gators at home - until then, that's a loss. We should skull f*** Auburn, but then again, we should have done that to them last season as well. And given our history at home with Auburn - didn't beat them at home until 2021 - I figure we'll revert to that crappy form. So there's the 6 losses.

I don't think Mizzou will be that impressive this season, and we did handle them last year. South Carolina has a Texas-sized ass-whupping coming for that season-ending hit on Moss, so I figure we'll beat their asses.

Debbie downer prediction, sure, but I'm not going to set myself up for the annual disappointment any longer.

5-7

Admittedly, this is my BAS prediction. I do firmly believe 5 wins is our floor and 8 wins is our ceiling.
I also think 6-6 is more likely than 8-4.

Definite losses are ND, LSU, and t.u. so we start with 9 wins. But there is no way we go 4-0 against Auburn, MSU, Florida, and Arkansas, so at minimum one of those is a loss.

Why do so many of you predict we'll lose to Arkansas every year?

Because I have a long memory that includes some ugly games in Fayetteville.

And while we have essentially dominated the piggies on the W/L board since joining the SEC, only 2 of those games have been big wins in terms of point differential. Winning 3 out of 4 games in OT on a piggie 4th down play stop is fantastic, but damn those games could easily have gone the other way.

Edit to add - I will not be surprised if the Aggies come out of Fayetteville with a win, but nor will I be surprised if the Aggies lose that one.

6-6 (4-3 at home, 2-3 on the road, 3-5 in conference; No worries, I'm never right.)

Because no matter the talent levels of either team, they are almost always a knockdown drag out fight that we have been lucky to get out of with the win

Then history says we will win a close game. Good grief get over BAS people.

I've never picked Arky until this year. They always play us hard/close and have home field this year, thus my pick.

Why is there a ceiling?

We have won 12 of 13 games against Arkansas since joining the SEC in 2012, but 7 of our last 10 wins against them were decided by 7 points or fewer, including overtime wins in 2014, 2015, and 2017. We will play a true road game at Arkansas for the first time since 2013. Still, I am predicting a close road win at Arkansas because Arkansas has lost 7 of their last 8 home games against Power 4 teams, including 6 of 7 SEC home games, over the last 2 years. 5 of those 7 losses were decided by 10+ points each. Arkansas stunned 10-3 (6-2 SEC) Tennessee 19-14 but got outscored in home games against 9-4 (5-3 SEC) LSU, 10-3 (5-3 SEC) Ole Miss, and 13-3 (7-1) Texas by a combined score of 117-51.

Gonna have to say 8-4 until we do better

Not switching qbs would have cost us lsu and switching qbs probably won the mizzou game. Qb change gimmick is also gone. Last year evened out correctly.

Like most years, 3-4 plays will determine 6-6 or 10-2, probably leading to 8-4

8-4 is the ceiling until proven otherwise

The big difference being that Weigman played pretty poorly in his first half of the LSU game. We have no idea how Reed would have played vs Mizzou because he never saw the field.

The outlier is that was weigmans best game by far. Sure A&M could have still won, but the score was 100% an outlier and has no meaningful effect on 2025. Elko won that chess match, but the qb switch advantage is gone in 2025.

Their head coach said this:

Eli Drinkwitz believes he knows the answer, no matter what the official Texas A&M depth chart says. He is preparing his team to face Reed on Saturday afternoon. Weigman might recover from his shoulder injury but Drinkwitz does not see Elko making a move after three straight wins with Reed under center.

"I know on their depth chart, it says the other kid is the starting quarterback," Drinkwitz said. "But that's just semantics, in my opinion. The guy is 3-0 as the starter and whether he's listed as questionable or whatever, I don't see him going back. They're 3-0, they clearly have a different offensive identity with this guy as the quarterback and they've developed an offense that fits around his system. It's a lot different than the first game of the year."
