The poll following the Orange and White game is full of .... hope.  

Optimism blooms every spring - just like the flowers on The Hill.  The average guess of 8-4 is optimistic.  Spring is the time for that.   7-5 is more realistic.  A case can be made for a performance equal to (or worse than) last year's record, starting with Bray's 5-30 numbers.

So pick 'em.  Man up (or woman up, if you are of the fairer gender).  Feel free to add commentary as to why.  I am lazy (Spring Fever, and all that), so I leave it to you.

I say 7-5.  With a Win over UNC in the Referee Rematch Bowl to make us 8-5 -  just because Dooley deserves it.

Solid Wins - Montana, Buffalo MTSU, Vandy, Kentucky

Probable Wins - LSU (just because the Mad Hatter shouldn't be that lucky again), Cincinnati

Probable Losses - Georgia, South Carolina, Arkansas

Blowout Losses - Alabama, Florida 

For those who don't have the schedule memorized.
