Why aren't we going to win 8 games again next year?

So the guy has an opinion about next year, which every single one of these posts are, and he has to back it up with facts?

I mean, it would be preferable, yes. He did state it pretty definitively and then didn't back it up.

What facts are you or anyone else gonna provide to show we'll win 8?

This doesn't prove we'll win 8, but we get to play the 3 clear worst teams from 2018 (Ole Miss, Arkansas, and Tennessee) next year, and none appears likely to improve much if at all.

Kentucky is likely to take a big step back after losing Snell, Allen, and their QB, and they were likely overachieving (unlike us) this season anyway.

Auburn and Texas A&M will be tough on the road, but we did beat them this year deservedly and non-flukily, so I'm not counting us out.

Like I said, we may or may not win 8, but the above facts suggest that the naysayers are probably underrating our chances.
