Bakedhog 5-7, UR, 22 TD

SuiGeneris 7-5, UR, 22 tds

I believe the early matchup with TCU is the key. If we win that game the switch to tne 3-4 has been a huge success and I see a great season. Lose and we will be lucky for bowl eligibility.

I’ll be positive and predict 9-3 with losses to Alabama, Auburn and LSU.

So here is my take: 9-3 Ranked #17 and 30 TD’s

All must be aware: #1 Tiebreaker is Hogs Final AP Ranking (Must be a numeric Top 40 ranking, or UR. Hogs are Preseason #38. Default (no response) = NA)

So UR means Ranked #41 or lower (42, 43,… etc)

I hope it is clear to all that UR (unranked) means you believe that AP will effectively have Hogs ranked as 41st or worst ranked team in the country based on points for teams that are listed as others receiving votes. i.e. As of today, the Hogs are ranked #38 in the nation by AP. I am clarifying to ensure no one is confused that unranked means a team ranked 26th or worst.

Also, changes are allowed up until the deadline. But once the deadline passes, no changes will be made. Even for errors or typos that I may have made. No exceptions. But I wish to be fair as all can see what is posted.

Thanks for playing, it does make the season interesting no matter which way it goes.

The earliest anyone has ever been eliminated from the game was in 2015 when MattRiley had 11-1 #7.

I need to change my prediction since I thought ranked meant in the top 25.
record: 7-5
Rank: 30
TD passes: 24

U R reddiehog :slight_smile:

No worries, I have clarified what was meant / intended. Last year unranked was Top 25 but Hogs started the season in Top 25. This year they are preseason #38 so saying UR Unranked would be too easy and too many tied.

[color=#0000FF](Must select a numeric Top 40 ranking, or state #41 or worst. Hogs are Preseason #38. Default = NA)[/color]

If you see someone that may be missing that point please let them know. Thanks for playing. I got a chance to see some of the scrimmage Saturday, but I just don’t have a feel. We don’t seem to have that IT factor nor the Swagger that says to a cupcake we will beat you to a pulp and then we play soft when we seemed to have clicking and/or overachieving or on other teams. I could see us beating Bama or LSU but still lose 5 games this season.
