On a more serious note, without the necessary transfer to buff up key weak points on defense I see it as wholly unrealistic to expect to beat Alabama or even Baylor (a team that will return elite lines that will dominate us on both sides). That's 2 highly likely losses. Assuming we go 3-0 against ULM, UTSA, and Kansas, we're going to need to go 6-1 against the Big 12 minus Kansas and Baylor. The RRS is a coin toss no matter how good either team is and we know this because Charlie Strong's worst team beat an Oklahoma team that went otherwise undefeated that had Baker at QB, Mixon and Perine at RB, and Shephard and Westbrook at WR all while getting humiliated by Notre Dame and choking away at home to Cal on a missed XP. Oklahoma State should also be a reasonably difficult team to beat. I think with this team we're looking at 8-4 and 9-4 with a bowl win given the massive improvement in line play I expect in the back half of the year. To see us at 10-3 after a bowl game I'd need to expect an improvement on defense that I don't think the transfers we got can produce.
