They were 8-4 in 2018. Alabama is replaced by Ole Miss so that is an L replaced with a W. They lost by 2 at SC and by 1 at home to UK in the crazy finish. IMO, that is 2 Ls replaced by Ws. Their QB was good enough to start for Clemson until TL showed up. Here is the way I see it playing out:
8/31: at Wyoming-W
9/7: West Virginia-W
9/14: SE Missouri-W
9/21: South Carolina-W
9/28: BYE
10/5: Troy-W
10/12: Ole Miss-W
10/19: at Vanderbilt-W
10/26: at Kentucky-W
11/2: BYE
11/9: at Georgia-L
11/16: Florida-L
11/23: Tennessee-W
11/30: at Arkansas-W
10-2 (6-2)
Record guessing based on last year results can be trick.
A veteran QB can make a big impact ie Cam Newton, russel Wilson or it can be a dividing factor in the locker room

I appreciate some legitimate football conversation instead of offseason clutter. I do however appreciate Joseph Goodman for typing that article about the cold slap in the face.. ought to help with a little motivation. This all out media hit attempt about Alabama making excuses is a tired bullshit story. They ask a question a specific way then take an 1/9th of the response and turn it into a Saban hit piece.
Your win /loss above takes two very uncertain effects into account as being good for them. First one, last years results and teams being wins and a transfer QB working out.. For every Russell Wilson and Baker Mayfield there is a Max Browne, Everrett Golson, Malik Ziare and Vernon Adams. For Every Cam Newton, Joe Burrow and Jake Coker there was a Jeremiah Masoli, Trevor Knight and Jarret Stidham (heisman front runner).. so just saying its not a sure thing.
8/31: at Wyoming-W (this is easy)
9/7: West Virginia-W - (will leave it as it dont know enough about West Vag but they are declining some)
9/14: SE Missouri-W (should be easy)
9/21: South Carolina- L (South Carolina's schedule is brutal they have to take advantage of possible wins)
9/28: BYE
10/5: Troy-W (Troy no pushover but I wonder how losing their coach will effect them)
10/12: Ole Miss-W (at home or I would probably go the other way. Ole Miss will be improved)
10/19: at Vanderbilt-W (in Nashville but I think Vandy losing quality QB and RB will hurt them)
10/26: at Kentucky-L (Kentucky lost a ton of Players but in Lexington and I think the UK offense will be better minus snell)
11/2: BYE
11/9: at Georgia-L (no doubt loss)
11/16: Florida-L (no doubt loss)
11/23: Tennessee- L - (Tennessee will be much better this year. I think this one isn't close.)
11/30: at Arkansas-L (Arkansas will be one of the most improved teams in the conference. They are going to score some points on folks. I think after getting hammered three weeks in a row going on the road to play a similar team is just too much. They get out scored in something that looks like a basketball score.)
I see a 6-6 record for Mizz with a 2-6 SEC schedule
