We'll take two out of those five. I'm just not sure which two.

the 3 away games are really going to be tough. Actually feel more hopeful after today that we might find a way-somehow to get 1 win in those games. Not predicting it. I'm predicting a 6 hame losing streak but the team actually played better than I thought they could today

they will steal one of those 5 games and give us a shot at bowl eligibility in our final 4 games (against much easier opponents).

if they can find a way to win any of these next 5 games, they should be able to find 6 wins before the end of the year...but as today reminded us...we are only as good as the QB is playing. Looks like we are in for a roller coaster season. Certainly more emotion on this board than we've seem in a while. SMU fans actually have expectations, it would appear.

I agree completely. At the beginning of the year, I thought we win three or four games this year and break through next year.
Now I think we win five or six. Probably five.

if Bo is our QB, itll be a loss. The dude needs to start watching kyle orton. kyle orton manages a game and gives his team the chance to win. 4 INTs in the second half and over time. Tattoo that on your arm [deleted]

CP, roller coaster means ups and downs.

I also am predicting 1 win in the next 5 games.

Did anyone EXPECT to beat UAB on the road after they drubbed Rice in their opener? The roller coaster is down but if we win any of these next 5 games, we will be flying high again

I thought we played UAB in Birmingham?

And...ECU is tough...and they have a 6 yr QB who doesn't make a lot of mistakes

Marshall might be a winnable road game and the way we have played Tulsa over the years...who knows?
