Will the pitching be better? Maybe. But, has Parker removed all the bad habits in one fall? Not likely. And there is no arm that could start for all the top programs that I see.

There are going to still be a couple of holes in the batting order. I would rather see 9 guys all hitting .290 with 25 xbhs than 2 guys batting .360 and 4 guys batting .240 or less. The latter is what I fear against SEC pitching.

I say 32-24 (12-18 SEC) after that horrible 3-9 SEC start.

Oh, and if they do start 3-9 or worse in the SEC, there should be an Interim HC when State plays Georgia.
Tough road schedule for sure. Could potentially be 4-11 or 5-10 heading to SBW and if you don't sweep Auburn, the hole gets deeper and you hit the road for Vandy and finish up the road series at Arky 2 weeks later. Gonna have to pull some major upsets on the road and not slip up losing a series at home to even sniff a chance at 15-15.
