Best case scenario would be 8 wins, possibly 9 if breaks fall our way. Worst case would be 6.

I think we should think we should win 7 possibly 8, but am hoping I am wrong and we win more.  I think it hinges on the play of the offensive line and if we can establish the running game not hearing a lot about Fenwick and I thought he looked good last year, but we need to find two guys that can consistently perform and stay healthy.  I am excited to watch a lot of guys this year.  Wonnum back along with Sandidge having a full year under his belt and all of the guys we will rotate along that line.  Freshman I am excited to see Boykins, Pickens, Harris, Anderson and some Hillinski.

Key is injuries. If we suffer again at the level of last year with injuries really need to take a look at are Strength and conditioning programs. A hard look very hard look. Seems we had similar problems in men's basketball to. Way too many injuries. That being said as always the trenches both offense and defense will be key. Hopefully will get a much-needed lift at running back performances. Of course secondary. The schedule is brutal no mistake. My key upset is Clemson this year will give us the 7th to 8th win heading into bowl season. Alabama, Georgia, Texas A&M and Florida most likely in the loss column. 8-4 maybe 7-4 the best case Tennessee scares me. I do not know why Muschamp has there number that's for sure. We shall see.
