Remaining SEC game predictions.

[JDW]

Anyone care to share their thoughts on how the SEC will turn out w/the remaining schedules? Will Alabama beat TN? Will Auburn beat Alabama? Can Alabama beat LSU? If 'bama beats TN and losses to LSU where does that put TN? Anyone have any predictions?

Hogs win remaining games.  Who cares about the other teams.

Alabama will struggle since Shula's questionable decision on playing Prothro cost him the season.  They will go 5-3 or 4-4 SEC.
Auburn will finish strong as well as LSU, either tied or one game apart at the end.  LSU and TN both should beat Alabama in defensive battle type games.  Florida finishes third behind Ga and TN.  Florida, MSU, TN and maybe Alabama will possibly be coach shopping at season's end.

[SultanofSwine]

The hogs may win 2 of the remaining conference games. But if I had to bet on it, I would say one.

Just wanting to break down and analize the other teams in the SEC to be prepared when/if we face them this year or next.

Good point about Prothro. I hated to see that happen. You sure Alabama will be looking for a new coach next year after the year they have ahd thus far? You sure 'bama can't beat LSU or TN? You think Auburn will beat AL? You think Auburn will beat LSU?

[WILL CLINTON]

No way Tennessee and Florida are coach shopping.  Phat Phil probably has a lifetime pass at Knoxville (winning a NC, SEC Championship and playing the in the SECCG, and having an overall winning record at an 80% clip will do that for a cocah.)  and Urban Legend is in his first year, they will give him 3, at least.  If Bama just lost their season with Prothro going down, Mike "I ain't your daddy's shula" Shula will be house hunting soon.  Sylvester wont be looking for another job simply because of the racial implications at least for another year or 2. 
What's really bad is because of the perception that "Houston does more with less than any coach in the league", one of these teams might give him a look to see what he can do for them.  Not saying it would be bad for us, just that it is bad that any respectable D-1 program would give him a chance.

Auburn and LSU finish tied for first in SEC west.   LSU will play Georgia in the SEC championship.

If the Hogs win this week it will probably be their last win this year.

Kinda going back on what ya said aint ya? I thought this weekend would be their last win?

[smilton90]

id love to say we lose all remaining SEC games.  but Nutt will probly upset LSU giving Broyles a great excuse to keep HDN.

We had a coach that won a NC, had racial implications, won many SEC tourn games, he didn't get a lifetime pass and I believe his win pct was about 73%.
Phat Fulmer was fortunate at LSU to win.  That NC was ancient history for TN fans.  It is said that he does less with more than any coach in the league!!  Florida fired a coach with a decent record for the short time he'd been there.  A three point offensive performance won't be forgotten for long if they don't turn out a win out season, Florida feels like they have as good of a talent pool as anyone in the conference.

Go Sooners!!!!

The man stated "probably."  Not absoutely. 

[msudawgs64]

Croom won't be looking for a job based on racial implications or otherwise, if he is looking for a job it will be from his own doing, i.e. the college head coaching game got old for him real fast and he resigns.  Basically he was given an extension last year after a one game improvement from Sherrill's last year.  He has two more years of what is left of Sherrill's recruits then after that he gets to show us what he can do with players he and his staff recruited.  Either way Templeton will not be firing Croom based on record, at least for a few more years and if it ever comes down to him being fired it won't be at State, Templeton is incapable of firing a coach, thus the reason Sherrill hung on for 2 years more than he should have.

Probably in my book is the same as everyone else giving up on the hog. Let him speak for himself. I haven't seen him post to many positive things about this season.

What are your predictions?

I think that Alabama will play LSU for the West. TN vs Georgira(maybe) for the East.

[HogsRule]

Alabama, LSU, and Arkansas tied at 5-3 for the Western division crown.

[Bomis Hawg]

Four-Way tie?

BTW, why would someone take joy in their own team losing out?

[JDW]

Four-Way tie?

If your talking to me, I don't. I don't know if AR has enough to take out LSU. Auburn yes. I think Geogria will be a handful as well.

[Bomis Hawg]

I was talking to someone else.

Arkansas, I don't think, can win enough games to make a difference.  They are a spoiler, at this point. 

[Hog1751]

Wattup, you do realize that if all four those teams go 5-3 and lose to the teams you stated, that Arkansas would end up in the SEC Title game, via its 4-1 record against the west and the head to head victory over LSU. Auburn and Alabama would both be 3-2 against the west and thus eliminatted before it started.

Wow, AR finishing behind Ole Miss and Miss St. You really think Auburn is that good.

I didn't actually look at how the tie breaker would play out, but thought we would have a good shot if that scenario happens. The question is, would anyone give Houston credit for rallying the team if it did happen.

I agree with just about everything you've said except I think Ark and 'bama can beat Auburn. Oh and TN will beat Geogria.

[Call Mr. Sow]

I didn't actually look at how the tie breaker would play out, but thought we would have a good shot if that scenario happens. The question is, would anyone give Houston credit for rallying the team if it did happen.

As a huge HDN critic, I would absolutely give Houston credit for rallying the team if that did happen.

I will also be gracious enough to give HDN credit if he cures cancer, achieves peace in the middle east, or convinces Jessica Alba to start doing porno.

I'd settle for a longer Avatar video of Alba on that pole.

[JDW]

Thinking about, here's the way I see AR's schedule playing out.

Missouri St.  49  17
Vanderbilt  24  28   
Southern California  17  70   
Alabama  13  24   
*********************
La.-Monroe  42  10       No promblems
Auburn  28  17            We can stop their passing game. We need to worry about their run game. D will step up again.
Georgia  21  28            We will play them close. Possibly pulling out a win.
South Carolina  30  10   They can stop our run and have no offense.   
Mississippi  28  14          Close game but we will win.
Mississippi St.  30  21     We can beat MS in the Rock. 
LSU  17  35                  This is the team that I don't think we will match up against well.

4/4 in SEC play.

     

[Hog1751]

The Way I see it...

LA Monroe 55-7 (I think a lot of agression will be taken out against the Indians)

Auburn 13-3 (The Hog's defense will continue to improve, and Im not impressed with a 4-1 Auburn team that has wins over
SUC Carolina, Missy State, and 2 1-aa opponents.

Georgia 24-23 (I really think UGA will be overlookin us, towards Florida, I think they were overlookin us last year and it almost cost em and I think this year Balsiero will kick a game winner with about 30 seconds to play)

South Carolina 37-10 (South Carolina is bad everywhere, offense and defense)

Ole Miss 31-13 (Ole Miss is bad)

Miss State 44-14 (I dont think State can hang with Arkansas at home)

LSU 24-35 (We dont match up well at all with LSU, but Nutt is far superioir to Miles, believe it or not)

7-4 5-3 (3rd in the west)

Oklahoma (Cotton Bowl) 21-17 (OU is not as good as we are, fo a change) 8-4 5-3

I agree with your thoughts on Auburn and GA. I don't think Auburn is all that, and I feel like we can shut them down and beat'em at home. I don't think either MS team can hang with us. LSU maybe a different story though. We will be playing at LSU and that may make the difference.

Alabama will struggle since Shula's questionable decision on playing Prothro cost him the season. They will go 5-3 or 4-4 SEC.
Auburn will finish strong as well as LSU, either tied or one game apart at the end. LSU and TN both should beat Alabama in defensive battle type games. Florida finishes third behind Ga and TN. Florida, MSU, TN and maybe Alabama will possibly be coach shopping at season's end.

Man, I can just see the 'Bama hate oozing off that ridiculous post.

You really believe that Urban Meyer, Mike Shula, and Phil Fulmer will be unemployed at season's end? LOL-- pass me what your smoking!!

[JDW]

How did you get that picture of Prothro in your sig line?

[JDW]

Nevermind I got it.

Fred Talley!

Run Fred! Run!

[wincrimson]

Good looking sig, JDW. Is that the 2003 AU/AR game? If so, I was there. Obviously, I'm a big 'Bama fan. But, I had to go up to Auburn that day to pass out political stuff for a family member.

I remember sitting amongst all that orange and blue while the Hogs ran all over them! WPS!

WOW...you cant be serious!

[JDW]

wincrimson,

Yeah that is the game. I will remember that game for along time. I wished I could have been there. I like your sig too. Too bad about Prothro. But Alabama has still got a good receiver core and a chance to win the West. I think TN will be their biggest fight. I think they will handle Auburn fairly well. Liking Alabama and Oklahoma has always been a guiltiy pleasure, disliking Auburn, Geogria, TN, and FL has always been a pleasure. Good luck with the rest of the season.

[JDW]

TulsaHogFan,

I've put my predicitions out there for everyone to see where I stand and I will stand behind them. If I'm wrong I'll say so, if I'm right...well I say that as well. So put up or shutup.

[Hog1751]

Actually the AU/AR game was in 02, I was there, It was great to see the Auburn fans leaving in the 3rd qtr, also great taht our band put theres to shame all day. Oh yeah the game was pretty good too, everthing went right for the Hogs, everything went wrong for Auburn, hell the war eagle was even sick tah day.

[JDW]

Hog1751,

You picked 55-7 AR vs ULM. I picked 42-10 AR vs ULM. It looks like we may be on par for the ULM score. They may pull out 15 or 18 but I don't figure anymore than that.

What are your thoughts?

JDW

[Gman]

I'm sticking with a close win over ULM and that will be our last win of the season...

[JDW]

30-8. I'd say our picks are pretty close so far.

[Fletch]

Based on what I have seen Alabama is as good as anyone in SEC. Their defense will keep them in every game and give them a chance to win. I think they beat Tennessee and maybe Tennessee is coach shopping next year. Hey maybe we can get him to come here since he recruits Arkansas so well.
