Realistic bowl prediction?

[bulldognation]

I've seen where we have one of the toughest schedules in the country. So what's the pack consensus on if/where we go bowling?
Here's the bowls with SEC tie-ins this year:

Las Vegas Bowl (SEC vs. PAC12) - December 17
Gasparilla Bowl (SEC vs. AAC/ACC/PAC12) - December 23
Birmingham Bowl (SEC vs. AAC) - December 27
Liberty Bowl (SEC vs BIG12) - December 28
Texas Bowl (SEC vs BIG12) - December 28
Gator Bowl (SEC vs ACC) - December 30
Music City Bowl (SEC vs Big Ten) - December 31
Sugar Bowl (SEC vs BIG12) - Jan 1
Citrus Bowl (SEC vs Big Ten) - Jan 2
Tampa Bay Bowl (SEC vs Big Ten/ACC) - Jan 2

LAS on 12/17 is very interesting. Granted playing in that bowl probably means we got shellacked three weeks earlier in the EB.. but as I sit here in July it sounds like more fun than Birmingham, Memphis, Houston, Jacksonville or Nashville.

 

[Smoked Toag]

9-3 and Citrus. We are better than people think.

 

[LandArchDawg]

I think we will be caught in the usual Birmingham/Liberty/Music City trap again.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

I predict a team outing at TopGolf in Birmingham for MSU Football this December and Leach in Key West on December 28th.

 

[paindonthurt]

Out of the ones you named I’d probably go to birmingham bc of convenience, Houston, Nashville and Las Vegas.

Most likely out on Memphis and Jacksonville

100% in on sugar, citrus or Tampa bay

 

[paindonthurt]

I’m going worst case 7-5.
Best 10-2.

Likely 8-4 or 9-3.

But I agree with you.

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

7-5 / 8-4 area. I’ll say Music City.

 

[columbiadawg2]

Today I would predict either Birmingham or some non bowl tie that needs to fill slots by using the surplus of SEC teams.

 

[greenbean.sixpack]

I’m going worst case 7-5.
Best 10-2.

Likely 8-4 or 9-3.

But I agree with you.

The wool grows thick, I'm hoping for 7-5, will be tickled pink at 8-4.

Will has to improve biggly in making and not giving up big plays for us to reach 8-4. He'll set records, but we need him to make big plays in crucial situations and not give up sacks in big spots to make 8-4.

 

[Ralph Cramden]

I'm gonna have to agree with Goat.

 

[dorndawg]

Whatever 6-6 (3-5) gets you.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

7-5 or 6-6 level. We will compete with most of the teams and see a decrease in mental offensive miscues but we have a killer schedule and it will show by the Egg Bowl.

 

[SteelCurtain74]

I think the East is going to be underwhelming with the second place team going 5-3 or 4-4. That gives us a great shot at Citrus if we can take care of business.

 

[DAWGS1.sixpack]

I’d like to see us in the Vegas Bowl but that’s probably going to take at least 8 wins so probably Bham Bowl or no bowl.

 

[msudawg1200]

6-6 Birmingham or 7-5 Texas

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

We will be 1 game better than what this board says and/or 1 game worse than what Genes Page - Steve’s Page - The Bone Zone says.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

I’m going worst case 7-5.
Best 10-2.

Likely 8-4 or 9-3.

But I agree with you.

Way to be specific and go out on a limb there

 

[Cooterpoot]

I feel a Natty coming on. We're about to shock the damn world!

 

[Shmuley]

This feels like one of those weird years where Leach pulls something totally out of his *** ………. while managing to lose the Apple Cu….. er, Egg Bowl.

 

[HRMSU]

8-4 if depth holds
9-3 if we pull one out of our arse
So whatever that gets you in today's ncaa NIL, Transfer Portal, Super Conference college football vortex
