7-5 with an outside shot at 8-4?

[Shamoan]

That would be salvaging the season at this point imo.

Is LSU your swing game?

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

At this point, I think 8-4, with an outside shot at 9-3. I like our Defense vs LSU a lot.

I would have to say 6 wins is the floor, but at least 7 is more likely. 9 wins is the ceiling, but 8 more likely.

Toss-ups:
LSU - we have not done well in hostile environments these past 2 years and it does not get any more hostile.
A&M - they crushed Kentuck's running game, but Auburn probably would too.
Ole Miss - still might get us in a track meet we cannot finish, but I doubt this more and more as they continue to be throttled by good defenses.

I say 8-4 with a real shot at 9-3 if they don’t dick with the playcalling. That front 7 last night was just as good as any we’ll play all year and State made them their personal *****. If they run the hall and don’t turn it over State will win in Death Valley. LSU does not have the offensive ability to beat us without our help.

 

[Dawg1976]

Agree.

 

[tcdog70]

Our defense will keep us in every game. We need to play ball control and score points when we have the opportunity. Auburn has a stud defense, so I like this game plan against the rest of the league.

 

[Shamoan]

I could see that. aTm is playing fundamental football and lsu has holes. Those two are huge. Fix the red zone playcalling and keep running the damn ball and we can win both. Georgia is going to smash LSU, so their backs will be against the wall having lost two in a row, much like we were against auburn. That is my hesitation there along with playing in Death Valley. We can do it, I just don't know what to expect

 

[Dawgs'n'Grizz]

I think the real question is how many points can we hold Bama to

 

[Dawgzilla]

Our defense will not keep us in the Bama game, but all the others we have a chance.
