Earlier this week, I completed a series of way too early 2017 football predictions. While I have the Tigers finishing the season with a winning record, other sources believe the Tigers will finish sub-.500.

I’m not a big analytics person, but the numbers don’t lie. While I hate to admit defeat, there may be a pattern here, and we may need to prepare for another tough season. Check it out.

Some of the projections agree with my predictions, but most are in direct conflict with my belief.
