    Expectations for the last 6 games

    HOME vs. Ole Miss
    HOME vs. Arkansas
    HOME vs. Kentucky
    AWAY at South Carolina
    AWAY at Vanderbilt
    HOME vs. Missouri


    While I'm sure the same crowd is predicting 0-6, just like they have predicting 0-fer since December, but what is everyone's realistic prognostication?

    I think 3-3 is realistic:
    • Pull an upset on one of these next 3
    • Split the road games
    • Beat Missouri at home


    I realize that Vandy and South Carolina are both worse than us, but it's hard to win conference games on the road. Not impossible, as Ray has proven three times this year already, but winning both would be tough.

    Going 3-3 would get us to 8-10, 15-16 overall. Unfortunately that gets us an 8 or 9 seed in the SEC Tournament most likely, so if we did win on Thursday of the SECT, we'd face Kentucky on Friday and likely fall to 16-17 overall. That might get us into the CBI, though, and a shot to get to .500 overall.

    8-10 is a huge improvement over 3-13. I hope we find away to go 4-2 over the last 6 and get to .500, but I'm going to predict 3-3.

    3-3.

    If we go 4-2, the ray hate should slack up, but it won't

    I think we finish 1-5 with the final 6. Obviously winning the Mizzou one.

    And it still shouldn't even then.

    If we go 4-2, I wouldn't be opposed to giving Ray another year. Anything less... meh. I understand though that he will be here regardless of what happens.

    I'm going to the UPig game- so that's a must win

    If we go 3-3 the rest of the way then it will have been a decent season and it sucked that injuries cost us 4 December wins- get those games in December along with 8-10 in the SEC- and we would be 19-13. A solid season
