    OM

    Need 6-1 or 5-2 at worst. We will probably be 3-4. Until we prove we can win a road game I will fade us on the road.

    I say 5-2, which puts us at 8-7 going into March. I think that's pretty good, but I'm sure most here disagree bc we made a final 4 28 years ago.

    3 maybe 4 wins. Not going to be enough unless we make a run in the SEC tournament.

    They disagree right now. We go 4-3 or worse in this stretch and they will be singing a different tune.

    Maybe. What are the 4 wins vs the 3 losses? I don't think it will happen, but our fans are always cutting in line to call a fail for state

    I'm looking at standings too. We play Bama, Mizzou, and LSU at their place. Just cause of that I was betting we lose all 3 cause we can't play on the road. But now I'm looking at it and Mizzou 2nd in the East. Bama leads West and LSU is 3rd.

    At home: KY not great but we tend to choke against them. GA leads the East. OM is 2nd in West.

    That doesn't look like an easy schedule to me. Odds are very much against your prediction IMO.

    But then ... We do have a top 3 big man in the country. Not sure who he is but we have him ****

    I don't look at histories when assessing sports. I do look at intangibles I think I have a feel for tho.
    BPI...
    Loss at bama
    State 77.8% fav vs Georgia
    State 64% fav at mizzou
    State 87.6% fav vs ark
    State 76.1% fav vs OM
    State 55.3% fav at lsu
    State 58% fav vs Kentucky

    BPI isn't biased against us like our fans. Obviously this doesn't mean we will win all these games, but BPI is pretty good. It called tonight's game basically 50/50

    This is very confusing.

    We will lose one of Mizzou and LSU and it is not out of the realm of possibility that we lose both. Until we show that we can win a road game it is a safe bet that we will lose them.

    LOL ... scratch that. Looking at football LMAO. So scratch everything I've said.

    ETA: Still wouldn't trust your take. You got a big bias. You might be right tho ... we'll see.

    I think we win 9 SEC games. Most likely 5-2 in February and 1-2 in March but possibly 4-3 in February and 2-1 in March.
    5-2 in Feb and 2-1 in March is about the best we can expect.

    Now I'm confused LOL. Just kidding ... I was confused to start with. I said 4-3 initially just because we had 3 road games.

    Just a reminder, we were 1-7 to start the sec last year before going on a run
