Wow, I've seen us as high as 3rd and as a pre-season top 10 team, but this would be devastating. http://greatamericansportsnetwork.com/2 ... t-preview/

I see no way this happens barring injuries all over the field. Too much talent.

Just a nobody knows website that nobody's ever hear of. I certainly never have, and I won't remember them tomorrow, either.

Our defense will be one of the best in the nation and will keep us in every game. We are far more likely to finish near the top of the SEC West than the bottom. Try State or A & M for the bottom.

I like it. Just count us out of everything. It makes proving them wrong that much more enjoyable.

They do have the 5th best odds to win the West, but it's a tight race from 1-5:

Alabama +245
Auburn +345
LSU +455
Arkansas +500
Ole Miss +545
A&M +1400
Mississippi State +1800

I broke down the early point spreads Vegas released on each game, translated it into expected win percentage on my site at:
http://www.boydsbets.com/ole-miss-football-predictions/

And it's showing 8.41 expected wins.

Basically close games at Florida and Mississippi State, then the home games v. LSU, Arkansas, and A&M.

Alabama is really the only game they are supposed to lose since they are 11 point dogs.

Lots of good teams on that list but somebody will end very disappointed with a 4 million dollar coach
