A&M at home will be tough
We wont win at UPig
We wont win at Kentucky
I think we can beat Tennessee
We are not going to win at Florida

2-3 is best case

My guess is we are 2-3 when Ole Miss comes to town for us to go 3-3 but we are a much better team then our 7-5 record indicates now that Newman is healthy.

We should be 10-2 regardless. Howland being stubborn caused that more than Newman's injury. But give Howland credit- he has adjusted now and we are looking better

No.

We have chances against Arkansas, Tennessee, A&M, and I think we also have a chance at Florida. The only one we don't have a chance against is Kentucky. This is the SEC not ACC, Big 10, or even Big 12.

That's what great coaches do. Howland will have us going deep in the NCAA tourney sooner then people think. I think the trajectory of above .500 this year, NIT the next and a Sweet 16 in year three would suit me just fine.

We'll see- but dont get your hopes up

On a side note- Wednesday night will be the first time for Stansbury to be back in the Hump. Should bring out a really good crowd. He deserves a standing O from the Hump

We have very little inside game. It will be hard to get there.

Even sitting at 7-5 it might be a struggle to get to 9 wins period with this team. ****

But seriously, no we won't win 9 SEC games.

After 3 or 4 conference games we'll know for sure. I'm curious to see if Howland coaches differently or shows anything new.

Tennessee and Auburn both suck. Arkansas isn't far behind. If we can get an upset against A&M, we have a great shot.
