Feel like that passing yards would be much higher if those stats are accurate.

@DaddyBoyAU Normally starts this thread, but I'll allow it.

1. The offensive line still stinks at pass pro.

2. We look better as a team, defense is amazing.

3. We lose a starter due to covid

4. We beat Penn St and LSU

The MMW Rules, copied from last year's thread:

The rules are simple:  Make a bold prediction about the season that you have a gut feeling about, but most people might disagree - and/or think you are crazy for believing.  And start those predictions with "Mark My Word" because you are sure about it, no apologies.  And don't debate or flame other posters' predictions on this thread, it is just for the predictions.  Another rule:  Don't make a wimpy prediction that everyone either knows or agrees with because, well, that would suck (and it's the only time flaming is allowed).  Predict anything about the season, AU football, AU Family (and the members), and even The Nip.  No politics please!

[SRBautigerfan 1,040]

Mark my words...

1.  Auburn beats UGA Sux.  

2. Auburn ends the regular season with two 1000 yds rushers.

Mark My Words:

     Texas A&M will fall on their faces this year
     Bo will catch a TD from DD
     Ole Miss will upset both LSU and A&M but will not win the west
     Anders Carlson will win the Lou Groza award that Daniel should have won

I thought it was too early to start it.  I’ll call The Nip instead.

Every prediction comes off as too negative.

[W.E.D 11,070]

• Our defense will not being in the top 3rd of the conference as many believe. 
• This is mainly b/c our offense will be worse than last year and probably ranked between 11-14th in the SEC.
• Tank might have an OKish individual season by himself, but no one else on the offense has a season to remember.
• Any hopes I had of the offense being better have been destroyed after the 1st scrimmage

[JBiGGiE 2,488]

MMW:

• Tank will finish Top-10 in Heisman voting

• Our run game will be the best in the SEC this year

• JJ "Mississippi Pegasus" Pegues will make 2nd-Team All SEC  

[Quietmaninthecorner 1,945]

MMW

my audacious pick:  no one's offense will score more than 29 points on our D.

my wimpy pick:   A walk on will take advantage of his meager playing time and push a starter before mid season.

-Worm has 1,300 AP yds including KO returns.

-We have 3 players with 7 or more sacks

-Anders Carlson sets a single season scoring record. 3 of those points will be a game winner from 50+. 

-Tony Fair plays his way into the 2nd round of the draft.

-Tank Bigsby has >27 receptions.

-We either lose or almost lose a game because of a botched long snap.

-We return more than one punt for a touchdown.

-Deal and JSS will be two of Harsin's favorite players on the team. They will be critical to the overall success of the offense. Fans will scream for more Frazier and King anyway. (Jk, nothing bold about this.)

[toddc 13,194]

Any predictions made at this point is bold. 

[Tigerpro2a 5,650]

Mark My Words:

AU will have a top 3 SEC defense in 21. ( PPG is only stat that matters)

AU offense will be improved overall and a TE will be our leader in TD receptions.

one of the 6 defensive transfers will be a 1st team All SEC player.

[WarTim 3,456]

MMW: The press corps will be afraid to push Coach Harsin’s buttons post game, or pregame. 😎

[TheDob06 443]

MMW:

- Bo Nix completes 62% or more of his passes

- Smoke wins the Thorpe award

- Auburn wins 9+ games
