Schedule

[ShotgunDawg]

The first half of the schedule looks great

Go for broke against LSU & see what happens

Figure things out & whip Arkansas in week 2

That sets up a huge game week 3 @ KY before it gets cold in KY

Hopefully you're on a 2 game winning streak at that point with A&M coming in before the bye week

Week 7 - Vandy

Week 8 - Auburn Big comes at a great time after Vandy

[msstate7]

I see 2-3 tops there.

Huh? Wins?

[ShotgunDawg]

Having OM the week after Georgia really sucks. Only real bad thing I can find about the schedule

[ShotgunDawg]

The main thing IMO is though, this schedule lays out well.

Not saying we'll win 7 games, but we should have every opportunity to win the games we are good enough to win. There isn't a truly winnable game that is in a bad spot.

[Skydawg1]

So are fans gonna be allowed or what? 25%? No fans at all?

Definitely sets up better than the October we were originally facing.

No clue. I'd guess 25% early in season & possibly more as the season progresses.

I don't think even Sankey knows the answer today though

Yeah. I was worried that the Kentucky game would be between Alabama & Georgia Or we'd have 3 straight weeks of LSU, Auburn, & Bama.

Again, not saying we set the world on fire, but we didn't get screwed by any means.

[dantheman4248]

agreed shotgun. this schedule is designed to allow for a 7-3 run by us. not saying we'll lose that many, but A&M game is no longer stuck in murderer's row.

[ShotgunDawg]

Here's how I think it plays out:

- We start 2-2. I'm guessing we beat KY but we may lose them, Leach talks about ugly girlfriends, & we take out A&M the next week
- The Auburn will be huge at home. The week after Vandy, we should be ready.
- I have absolutely no clue what we'll look like against Mizzou the week after the Egg Bowl. My sense is that we either lose both or win both. Either way, getting up the next week after the Egg Bowl is going to be hairy

Huh? Wins?

You added vandy and auburn after my comment. 2-3 is best case imo after 5 games. We are gonna really struggle to stop anyone imo

Gotcha. If we have 3 wins after 5 games, we are in good shape

[ShotgunDawg]

- Of note, we play A&M after they've played Florida & Bama. Jimbo may be on life support at that point
- We get Auburn after a bye. You never know how those will end up.
- We get KY after Auburn & OM

You think we lose to Texas A&M even in the best case?

That is a good time, but I think they get Florida before us

Ok, thanks! I vote for NO FANS in Week 1!

[was21]

May possibly win 3 games total

[msstate7]

Our defense is gonna be atrocious this year. Sell me on our D, and maybe I'll change my mind. We're also gonna be breaking in a totally new offense that doesn't fit our personnel.
