our bowl hopes are NOT done

After the MTSU game this week we should be sitting at 3-4 heading into the meat of our SEC schedule. Assuming we beat two mediocre to bad teams in Arkansas & Kentucky(lost Hartline today) we will only need one more win to become bowl eligible. For that 6th win we will need at least one huge upset win over Ole Miss, Bama, or Florida. All three are at home, and with our rushing attack I could see us pulling out at least one. If I had to say which one I'd say Ole Miss, by then they will have at least 2-4 losses on their record and their momentum from being NC contenders early on in the year will be done, plus it's the Egg Bowl. I can still see us making a bowl game, it will just be very tough.

But, I have given up hope. Our QB is incapable of *not* choking and he is literally all we've got at that position.

We should be fighting for bowl position instead of bowl eligibility right now. Tyson Lee will more than make sure that we have a nice, early holiday season at home.

They beat the ever-loving **** out of Auburn today.

I said 4-8 to start the year, and I'm sticking with that. I think we can beat MTSU and one other team, maybe UK.

C'mon, you know win/losses aren't relative to each other. I mean, if you want to go that route you can just as easily say that Arky had 50 hung on them by a mediocre Georgia team that was just creamed by a mediocre Tenn team.

We are way better than I expected to start the season. We've really only been beaten by a team other than ourselves one time this year.

I had Arkansas and Ole Miss penciled in as question marks this past week. Looks like I'll update Arkansas to a L.

then learn how to reply.

Secondly, I'm not comparing Ark's and our results vs. Auburn. I'm saying that Arkansas demolished a good Auburn team. That elevates them out of the "mediocre to ******" category.

We had 4 turnovers again, but we are racking up some offensive yards every week. We have enough athletes on this team right now to be competitive under the current staff. I think that in 2 years, with a better secondary, a new defensive coordinator, and a new QB, we should be winning 8 games a year. I think we can all agree that we have a much better coaching staff, and we seem to be recruiting the talent to run our system. I think we are definitely headed in the right direction.
