season predictions, but I am dam happy about 6-6 simply because we got that 4th bowl in a row. Man, it feels good, especially seeing all my Rebel family members over this Thanksgiving break. Hail State!!!

I think I had us at 7-5 maybe 8-4 when I still had on my preseason wool

when the schedule came out I said 5-7 to 7-5, but the wool grew before the season and I think I went 7-5.

We schedule a regular game to kickoff the season and we're 8-4 this year. Having Dak and Tyler and all five of our OL at Auburn and we win that game too.

I actually predicted 6-6 at the start of the season. Three weeks ago I didn't think we would get it though.

The fact that we shouldn't have scheduled OSU doesn't change the fact that we should have beat OSU.

I said 7-5 to 8-4 depending on if we best OSU. I thought we would beat Auburn and we almost did. If we don't go with the prevent defense and put more pressure on Marshall on that last drive, we win that game. I also think if we hadn't missed the chip shot field goal, we would have won it.' I will say this though. We have to find a consistent field goal kicker for next year if we want to have the special kind of season I expect us to have. The spring should be about finding a great field goal kicker. I think we will be okay for the rest of the special teams. Bell will be a great punter.

There are several teams that are saying, " If we had done this or hadn't done that, we would have beat Auburn."

MSU, aTm, OMU, AL, just off the top of my head.

Some have said that Auburn is the luckiest team this year, and I concur.

Ole Miss was never in the game vs Auburn. You could add Georgia to that list though.

I actually said 6-6, but like Dawgface said, I wasn't expecting us to get there 3-4 weeks ago.

In fact, I think I predicted us to go 6-6 and ole miss to go 7-5...but I can't remember

4. Ole Miss- (4-4) This team is pretty good on the DL and LB. They run a good offense that has some weapons at WR. They lose to Auburn who has the week off to get ready- but I think they upset LSU this year at home. Freezus gets 7 wins in 2013.


The rest of my predictions left alot to be desired.

I copied and pasted this from my 8/2/2013 post. And revised it on 10/14/13....

The only change I would make is the fact that I think we have a real shot at beating UPIG in Little Rock IF our D Line can stop the run. We will beat Ole Miss and 6-6 is a real possibility.


Bogey's 2013 Prediction!

Game 1 Oklahoma State: MSU- Untested secondary, average LB’s, unproven WR’s v Oklahoma St.- Proven QB, high powered offense and on a neutral field. Historically, Mullen’s teams struggle against offenses that are “high powered.” Troy & A&M come to mind last year. (L) 0-1

Game 2 Alcorn State: If we can’t beat Alcorn St., we shouldn’t be in the SEC. (W) 1-1

Game 3 Auburn: We’ve beaten Auburn 2 times in the last 11 years, Malzhan will improve Auburn’s offense, and I just don’t think our young secondary will get the job done. I think this will be a high scoring game and a very close game, but I’m going with history in this one. (L) 1-2

Game 4 Troy: Close game for three quarters but we pull away late. We win by 12 points or less. (W) 2-2

Game 5 LSU: We’ve only beat LSU 2 times in 22 years; it isn’t happening this year either. LSU has too many athletes on both sides of the ball for us to match up with them. When they need it, they line up and run the ball down our throats. This game will be close for a half; LSU pulls away in the 2nd half. (L) 2-3

Game 6 Bowling Green: This game could get interesting and may be one of those games that we look back on wondering how we lost to Maine, I mean Bowling Green! Mullen beats the teams he is supposed to beat. We win by 17 or less. (W) 3-3

Game 7 Kentucky: Mullen has never lost to Kentucky, and the streak will continue. We win by 10-14 points. (W) 4-3

Game 8 USCe: The last time we played South Carolina; we had ample opportunities to win but could not finish drives. South Carolina is a different team at home; they play on another level and have a tremendous defense. Their offense is often times overrated due to their high profiled coach, their QB’s are average at best. This game will be close as well, and if we had them at home I may call this an upset, but I don’t think we beat them at their place. (L) 4-4

Game 9 Texas A&M: Maybe Mullen and staff will have our team ready to play and make up for one of the worst performances/efforts I’ve witnessed under Mullen’s regime. We won’t beat A&M on the road with a healthy Manziel. * I think Manziel may be less than 100% by this time of the season and this prediction may change based on his availability. (L) 4-5

Game 10 Bama: It’s Bama. (L) 4-6

Game 11: Arkansas: I think this is a toss-up, have we ever won a football game in Little Rock? I think Arkansas will have an identity by this time of the year, I don’t think they will have a late year melt down like they did last season. Arkansas lacks talent and this may be another opportunity for us to grab a much needed SEC win. Based on history, I have to give a slight edge to Upig. (L) 4-7


Game 12 The Egg Bowl: I’m not sold on Bo Wallace, Ole Miss has athletes on defense but coaches now have film and can study Freeze’s tendencies. I haven’t commented on this, but I really think Ole Miss will struggle through the first part of their season and this will take a toll on their team chemistry. If our fans and team haven't lost all confidence by this time of the season; I think we beat Ole Miss and the egg comes back to Starkville. W (5-7)

It’s going to be a long season, we will not go to a bowl this year but I really think we can make noise in 2014. I think this year’s team may be slightly better than last year’s, but we don’t have the schedule to create a falsehood. Mullen needs to recruit if we want to compete, period.
