schedule and agree that 9 wins (9-4) is a reasonable expectation.

However, due to the Head Coach, their prediction could be that we'll fall short of those expectations (e.g. 8-5). With such an easy non-con schedule (SMS, Uconn, Purdue, Idaho) we could go 8-5 (7-5 regular season) and still finish last place in the SEC EAST, so the "experts" predicting a last place finish in the EAST aren't necessarily predicting fewer than 8 wins.

The ones predicting that we only win 6 games (or whatever) are probably simply/lazily assuming that 2017 will be like 2018, without realizing that the horrible 2017 season was due (in large part) to rookie mistakes by Odom (e.g. the blown UGA game, changing the defensive scheme, etc.) as well as a more difficult schedule (e.g. road game at WVU, road game at LSU, etc.). They don't pay close enough attention to Missouri to realize and factor in those things. They simply see 4 wins in 2017 and extrapolate from that.
