Hey 21. Welcome to the site. We hope you enjoy the place enough to hang around some.
As far as this year goes I would be happy if the team (1)won 7 games (2) beating the teams they were supposed to beat and not getting upset (3) showed improvement every game. Under Shula the team did none of that most years. Especially the constant improvement. Often the team seemed to get worse as the year went on.
What I think will happen is that we win 8 games likely winning atleast one against UGA, AU, FSU, UT, LSU.
FSU is going to have a strong D, but I'm not sure how good the O will be.
UT is replacing much of their offense and something like 7 starters on defense.
UGA and LSU will be tough.
AU is AU. It'll be a close, hard-faught game going either way.
I do think the team will improve week in and week out. I think the offense will score points and the defensive front 7 should improve over the course of the year with more playing time and experience.
8 wins would be great. We could possibly win more, or we could end up with only 7. I feel like 8 is a good, realistic number though (not counting a possible bowl win).
