So what’s your guess at how many we win next year ? I say 7.5 is the O/U on games we win

We win 7 or 8 in a slight rebuild.

Whadda ya say?

Should start out the season ranked top 5 or at least top 10 because of this year. The beatdown at Ole Miss will have little effect on the rankings, then a couple of winnable games, an iffy game at W&M so should start the conference season ranked.

Agree on WM. Glad it’s 4th game as we will probably be fielding a younger team than them. Either 2-2 or 3-1 heading into conference play. If we could eke out 3-1 it would really help.

At this point I’m confident in predicting we will wind up with between 5 and 11 wins.

The way I see it, we are poised for a 16 win season. That's twelve in the regular season and four in the play-offs. Maybe I counted wrong.

First point - None of the games have been played yet. We're still in the hunt.

Second point - The Paladins won't rebuild; they'll reload.

Third point - CCH is awesome.

Fourth point - We're introducing a new system called "Dynamic Perfectionism", where we drop the old hat methodology of playing one game at a time. We're going to look-ahead and play two games at a time, thus always being one step ahead of our opponents.

Fifth point - We got the mojo.

Sixth point - Its the Paladins. Everything good is possible.

Mercer tunes up for that 11-0 vs 11-0 de facto SoCon & FCS Championship Game w/a scrimmage in Tuscaloosa the week beforehand.

Mercer might not be undefeated when we play them.
Expecting an OT loss to ‘Bama?

I hope you are right but right now that would be in the minor miracle category.
