Preface: Hope all of you guys stay safe down there, human life is much more valuable than a game and I am glad they cancelled it.
So since I'm in Missouri and have nothing to do for a week or two now, I want to discuss what we are looking at for the rest of the season. Our "tune-up" game before conference play is gone and now it sets up an interesting week 3 matchup against UT at home.
Likely going to have a short week of practice so prep-time for the game will be shortened which could create a lot of issues...
Best bet scenario is that the hurricane peters down a bit and we aren't having to worry about rescheduling UT game due to loss of property/life/etc...We walk in and take a hard fought W against UT and then head into Lexington with a little bit of momentum.
Worst case is we lose at home and start the season 0-3 headed into Lexington with players still suspended and a team that is on the breaking point.
We could easily be 3-1 headed into our game at LSU and things looking up or we could just as easily be 1-3 headed into the game against LSU followed by Texas A&M and Georgia.
UT game IMO is the make or break game for us this season, win it and we might salvage a half-way decent season, lose it and we might be going back to Birmingham or sitting at home during bowl season.
