20th in the nation in FPI and 11th in the conference.

Our opponents:
23 Miami
- Samford
14 Texas A&M
49 Mississippi State
32 UCF
9 Tennessee
34 Kentucky
1 Georgia
3 Texas
13 LSU
16 Ole Miss
11 FSU

We have a higher FPI than 5 of our opponents!

 

[AuggieDosta]

That's a surprisingly good jump IMO.
I still feel like we're being under-valued and I'm perfectly fine with it.
It's time to put up or shut up.
I think we're going to be better than most think we are and am optimistic.

It's going to take larger and larger donations to keep you around if this place survives after Wednesday.

Yayyy!!! I guess.

You know we are going to get some fantastic game plans from Slingblade and Jackoff to make up for those FPI deficits.

The guy at Miss State scores points. They wont be good but they are better than UCF and maybe even Miami (who will underperform their talent rating thanks to have the second or third dumbest coach in P5).

What was our FPI the last few years?

 

[Swamp Donkey]

I hope they are right

You hope we win 5 games?

 

[Joegator96]

You hope we win 5 games?

No, I HOPE we win them all! The prediction question was how many do ya THINK we will win? To that I said 5 or less but I HOPE I win POWERBALL

My nickname used to be powerballs. Maybe I should play that game.

Have us at 3.5 wins, it’s going to be a long season

The 1/2 win is awarded after an entire game with 11 on ST each time?

Although

The amount of votes in the poll for five wins or less is freaking stupid and disgusting. You guys are bunch of embarrassing battered wives.

Maybe you should ban the OP for not making the votes visible and subject to ridicule.

 

[Silverback Gator]

As much as I dislike Napier, I choose to believe we win 7. That's not even great being his third year. He's slow to create change and has made very poor hiring decisions where his hires seem to have been unsupervised on his watch. What was he thinking, that we were a solid SEC ready team? Lots to infer from that. Last preseason he was smugly confident that our defense was going to surprise some people. Well, it did,

That’s basically what the experts are saying, so I guess we’re all stupid.

Yeah, you are. To think this team could be WORSE than last season and the season before that is asinine. We are improved everywhere. It's a significantly more talented team than his first season.

 

[Silverback Gator]

I do not like Napier, but I think he/his staff can win 7. Less than that and he's going to need to take a look in the mirror he's been avoiding.

 

[MJMGator]

That’s just an opinion and based on hope. We haven’t played a snap so I don’t know how anyone can say (with a straight face) that “we are improved everywhere”. Thats the dumbest sh*t you’ve spewed to date.
The coaching has been abysmal on defense, special teams and clock management. You expecting miraculous improvements to that crap with no changes made?
Yeah, we’ll see who the dumbasses are when we repeat 5-7.
