I'm on the fence to be sure. On one hand think we can scrape two wins. On the other were it not for a couple of big plays we'd be 3-9. Keeping the faith.

I?m 50-50 on the 2 more wins. I think we beat someone but getting 2 will be tough with our schedule.

If Lebby goes winless in the SEC again, he's in trouble. I know y'all all say he's guaranteed a 3rd season, but fan support will be at an all time low heading into the season next year. And if Selmon heads to Oklahoma and we get a new AD.......all bets are off.
With that said, I think we steal 2 more wins and one of those will be against ole miss.

If he goes winless again this year, he needs to be fired. Has any other coach gone winless before in back to back years? Did Chad Morris at arky? I'm sick of the excuses. Go win a freaking game

We didnt win an SEC game from 1966-1969
We went 3-24 in the SEC from 87-90
How do you fire a guy that is given bottom 25% of the SEC money to build a roster? We dont have the money to pay the buyout and hire a new staff most likely

Clark Lea went 0-8, 2-6, 0-8 his first 3 years in conference. Thats the closest recently. Chad Morris went 0-8, 0-6 (fired mid-season). But he was also 2-10, 2-6 overall when fired. Lebby has a ranked win too.

It's a valid point. To be the sole SEC team not to win a conference game over the two seasons would be an untenable position for Lebby to be in. He needs to win at least one.

You're giving me stuff from 40-50 years ago. Things have changed, there is a lot more money coming in now than then. Cignetti takes IU from dumpster fire to a playoff team in his first 2 years yet we have fans that think it's ok to keep a coach that goes potentially 0-16 in league play in back to back years?

Yeah. These are different times. With NIL and transfer portal, good coaches are building winning teams in a single year.
Hopefully Lebby figures it out. I like him would love to see him succeed here.

Cignetti was coaching at a program winning at a high level and brought about 30 players from that program with him. Much like the excitement of BOC- bringing good players with you to bolster your roster for the upcoming season makes u better. Lebby took a job at a bottom feeder needing a total rebuild because of the Air Bone debacle.
and aGAIN- we dont fund our program like the rest of the SEC does. Candy has passed us in funding for football. I never thought I'd see that day

Vandy spends less than us and wins. Let's hope he doesn't go winless.

Predications are funny especially on ED. We are now at the halfway mark; we have a good chance of winning a few more games. Tough winning on the road, and I don't know if we will beat Florida, but it is very possible. That would be huge for Lebby and our program.
-
Certainly not the final say, but here's FPI win % for us in the remaining games...
Florida 32.3%
Texas 17.5%
Ark 35.3%
Georgia 16.1%
Mizzou 18.9%
OM 24.7%
If we lose next week, I have a hard time seeing us get 2 wins. Maybe the goal should just be get an sec win

I think our best chances are Texas, Arkansas, and ole Miss.

I don't think we can score on Texas. I agree with ark and OM. Still think both are unlikely

Where do you get the funding rankings that Vandy is ahead of us?

Yeah the big issue to me is the injuries not just the games. Give me the hurt players back and I say we win 2.
Playing 2nd teamers in key spots yeah going to be tough. Ark got harder when they fired Pittman because now they play loose with house money - no pressure. UF if better than their record. OM at home is where Lebby needs to show we are on the right track.

Watching Tn/Ark yesterday, Tn is over-rated (but a top 20 team) especially on defense. Ark is a very winnable game for us.

Not sure if we can keep up with them. They can score, and I have no confidence in our offense
