Keep the 100% improvement year over year, and we are fine.

So do you have us winning the College Football playoff or are you waiting to see who we play in order to make that call?

ESPN FPI predicts 5-7

IT'S OFFICIAL

If we win 5 we might as well win 6 and go bowling. I refuse to accept 5.

4 or 6.

I think it depends. If we go vs Clemson, Ohio State or Alabama I think we lose. I give us better odds vs. an Oregon or OU tbh.

Seriously though I am going on the optimistic side and I say we win 6. I don't know which ones and it doesnt matter as long as we win them.

North Texas- W
Baylor- L**
Liberty- W
TCU- L
Temple- L
Tulsa- W
Houston- L
Tulane- W
Memphis- L
East Carolina- W
USF- L
Navy- L

5-7

**Have to pick Baylor to win,... but if we can get a BIG upset this year, than this is our opportunity. Early season game and questionable current state of affairs down there. Maybe the football gods will bless the Mustangs.

Also looking for a late season W. ECU could be the one.

I think we beat UNT, Tulane and Liberty. We are competitive against Baylor, Temple, Tulsa, Memphis, ECU and USF. We end up with 4-6 wins depending upon injuries/luck.

North Texas W
Baylor L (competitive)
Liberty W
TCU L (competitive)
Temple L
Tulsa W (going out on a limb here but we DO need to starting beating them)
Houston L (very competitive)
Tulane W
Memphis L (competitive)
East Carolina L (very close loss, very competitive, the loss will ultimately cost us a bowl game)
USF L (big loss, big let down)
Navy L (gave up last week, ends with a big loss like Memphis last year - not AS bad, but pretty bad)

4 wins, big improvement, VERY close to getting to 6 wins and a bowl but ultimately the season ends on a downer. Lots of hope for next year.

If we are 5-5 with two HOME games to go against USF and Navy and need to win one of the two in order to go to a bowl game and then go 0-2 at home, I would be a little more than disappointed with the season regardless of what happened in those first 10 games.

I WANT to believe, but ...

North Texas W
Baylor L
Liberty W
TCU L
Temple L
Tulsa L
Houston L
Tulane L
Memphis L
East Carolina L
USF W
Navy L

I think we'll lose some games by small margins. We'll be more competitive overall, but still short in the win column. Things will be better. We'll have new complaints about not closing out or finishing strong, rather than not showing up.

I will happily eat all of my words.
