I do think 6 and a bowl win would be acceptable. But it will also indicate to me this isn't the coach who can win World Titles. I was watching the '85 Sugar Bowl last night and did you know that Miami team had 3 senior starters? THREE. If this is a championship staff and this vaunted class is all it's cracked up to be the dividends will be paid this year. You'll know right away. Yeah. That was wild. I would have to do some research but Jimmy Johnson must have cleaned house when he came in. Because they won the title 2 years before that. They did have a bunch of NFL players on that team though. But seriously, the excuses have to end. If he does not win 7, he ain't a good coach. Really, he needs to be fired if he doesn't make a bowl game. I stand by that.

I actually am confidently going w/ 7-5. More speed, more depth will show. I don't give a chit about the O-Line or D-Line. People aren't running the Wishbone. Just get all of our new dreadlocked gazelles out in space and let's go. Phil Steele actually predicted 7-5 on Bozolio the other day. Bump

I said 8 all summer and that was clearly wrong. I just didn't see OleMiss being what they are.
But 7 was and is a reasonable prediction and expectation. I'll even say this--Phil Fulmer wins 7 games with this team.

Only missing the win total by two (out of twelve) isn't anything to pat yourself on the back for. I'll also suggest counting two of the last four as wins is premature.
But, I bumped your remarks not so much because of the win total but your thinking on the relative importance of line play. Speaks volumes.

Because no one knows anything about football except Tebow.
He's white LeeCrowe.

We lose big this week, and lose to USCe, then you can clue the Glen Frye music. Because the Heat is On.

Florida, OleMiss, Mizzou are the season. Win those, as ButchPlease should since he gets it, and there you go. This was pretty much dead on and went 0-3. Win just one--2 of which were at home--and the season has an entirely different feel.

USCe was probably considered a sure loss 5 months ago.

6-6 isn't an option or a realistic result. 6 wins gets Butch a bowl. Butch Bowl for the Lady Vols

USCe was probably considered a sure loss 5 months ago. That's fair. I never included them as a win. Lose that but win 2 home games against FL and Mizzou you still are at 7. I was saying 8 all summer and that was wrong as it turned out.
