I don't necessarily think we "deserve" to be in the top 10, however IF we win these next 3 to get to 10-2 I do think (due to the natural shifting that will occur from teams above us losing during the same week) there is a reasonable chance we will be at #10 or sniffing at it at #11 when regular season ends. Then IF we win our bowl and it's against a good team, I could see us finishing in the 6-9 range depending on the performance of other teams.
Now having said that, this would depend on TWO very bigs IFs that I don't have confidence in either occuring, since 6 of 9 seasons he's lost 2+ games after October and the best team he's ever beat in a bowl was an LSU that finished 9-4 and 3rd place on their side of the SEC.
