Getting to 6 Wins (breakdown of teams schedules)

[KBVol]

The offense has got to improve to get to 6 wins.

And the defense? 700 yds/59 Pts to Oregon in 3 qtrs, beaten by backup/ inexperienced QB vs Fla, 400 yds/24 Pts at home to lowly SunBelt team. Yes, the O HAS to get much better.... but so does the D.... been pretty bad so far.

at least our recruits seem more optimistic than most of our fan base
looking forward to seeing our killer class in action

People that are expecting much more than what you have seen on the field no very little about football. We have struggled in recruiting, wins and getting a decent coach for the past few years. Most people said they would love to get to a bowl game and would have picked all our wins and loses correctly in the first 5 games. Why is it surprising that things aren't going that well. The defense was awful last year, Worley stats were also and he is still the best QB we have.

Yes, d needs to improve. But. Look. The offense has put the d in terrible situations the last three games. The offense needs the most improving.

Better chance to beat Vandy than Mizzou on the road.

Also, watch something happen like it snow in Columbia in November

Never thought I would see the day that us beating Vandy would be an upset. Truly sad, an empty cupboard was Dooley's last gift to us.

Ok, so we have a tough road ahead of us. We have 4 games that we need 3 out of.

@ Missouri (65% likely)
*Currently 3-0 without an SEC win so far.
*Playing Arkansas St. and up by 1 halftime
*Before us they play Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina with no break
*Unfortunately, we have the same kind of stretch before this game. At least, we have an off week mixed in

vs. Auburn (40% chance of win)
*Lost to LSU by 14
*Beat Mississippi St.
*Arkansas and Florida International before us

Vanderbilt (55%)
*Beat Austin Peay by 35 (10 less than us)
*lots of issues distracting
*Kentucky the week before us
*Lots of struggles against UMass

Kentucky (90% likely)
*Lost to Western Kentucky (WKU also lost to Southern Alabama)
*They play Georgia right before us
*Currently losing by 14 to Florida in the 3rd QTR

We will very possibly go bowling this year. Get ready Volnation Butch is moving us in the right direction

Missouri won 41-19...also their Indiana win might be better than any of the teams we have wins we have so far.


I'm not sure why you're giving us an almost 70% chance of beating that team at their home in November anyway, especially with the way they're playing


Or is the reasoning here "we're UT, they're missouri"

You guys are being very un-dude like. Win the games you should win, lose the games you should lose, go bowling and recruit.

Until we lose a game we should win, or win a game we should lose, we are on the right track. You guys are making too much of style points AND trying to use the transitive property in football.

Decrease 10% off of each game and you'll be spot on

Maybe we could just replace the forum with this post until everyone sobers up tomorrow morning. Most reasonable post award to you.
