Butch getting overlooked..

Good God alive no, not 5-0, but sure as hell not 0-5. You think we might get either AP or WKU and probably lose both. I think we beat them both, win 3 out of 4 vs Mizzou, Ky, Vandy, Auburn, and get one we're not supposed to- either So Carolina or Ga. That's 6-6 Chief. To you I'm an pie in the sky idiot right? To me, you're a down in the mouth pessimist. Guess we're even, or close to it.

here's what I posted:

Tennessee travles to Eugene, Gainesville and Tuscaloosa. Georgia and South Carolina visit Neyland. Tennessee will be lucky to go 1-4 in those games. Auburn and Western Kentucky are toss ups at best. We're far less talented than last year. Fortunately, so is Vandy, so there's hope there. None of this is Butch's fault so don't go there.

Arkansas plays Florida, aTm, Alabama, LSU, and South Carolina as the only expected losses. They also get Louisiana, Samford, Rutgers, Southern Miss, Miss St, Ole Miss and Aubie.

I would say at best Jones has equal on field results to Bielema. at worst, he's two-three games worse.

what's our record against Alabama, Florida and Oregon? I said we'll be lucky to go 1-4 against those three and USCe and UGA. so there's one win in my record books. I said Aubie and WKU were toss ups. Let's say we win one of the toss ups (when I think we could easily win both), that's 2 wins. AP? Win. We're up to 3. South Alabama? Win. 4. Mizzou, Vandy and Kentucky? 2-1 at worst. So we're looking at 6 wins. and let's say we sweep Mizzou, Vandy and Kentucky, that's 7. We beat both Aubie and WKU? 8 wins. So to sum everything up, worst case scenario in my eyes is 5 wins (a whopping one win shy of your pick). Best case is 8. Most likely is 6-7. Yeah, I'm way more negavol than you Chief.

Alright, my bad, completely misread your post. Just strained a hammy as i now backpedal. Somehow thought you wrote we go 1-4 at best in our first 5 games. Upon further review, our predictions are virtually identical. Will aim better in the future to avoid friendly fire. All on me. My bad.

No worries man. If we come out of the first five games at 3-2 and are at least respectable in the UF and Oregon games, I'll be ecstatic. I'm not a negavol, but this team faces a brutal schedule with what Jones is getting to put on the field. As I've stated, I'm not blaming Jones for that either. Minus Bray, Patterson, Hunter and Rivera is going to be tough for any first year coach, even if it was Gruden or if we somehow resurrected Neyland himself. I have quite a bit of faith in Jones so far, I just hope the majority of the fan base understands how low our expectations should be for next year.
