Where do we get 4 more wins?The goal is to win 6 games and play in a bowl. At 2-2, where do we get four more wins? Allowing that SMU can beat Rice and Tulane, how will we do with Tulsa, UTEP, and UH? Can we take East Carolina, Navy, or Marshall? Inquiring minds want to know.

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?After yesterday, can anyone seriously have any expectations that we'd beat either Houston or UTEP? Hope is okay, but no expectations. See raplh if you need some hope.
I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize.
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?If the defense can make it happen maybe we can...'Gun slinga' shots himself in the foot too much for us to have such expectations for this year I am afraid....not a final answer.....here's hoping.....
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?SMU seems to have played well vs UTEP in Dallas, for whatever reason and for whatever that's worth.
One thing is for certain: we need to learn how to come out in the 3rd quarter and play football. With our coaching staff's experience, the edge for coaching adjustments is supposed to be ours.
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?IMHO we will be lucky to get 2 wins. 4 wins are probably next to impossible unless we have a change at qb. bow-levi will continue to unravel. No scoring offense- no wins.
GO PONIES!!!

He could get shot anywhere and JJ would still start him. We've never lost the tailgate.
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?In addition to the two obvious ones - I would say UTEP (travels poorly) and Marshall are shots at 5 & 6.
I think we have a decent shot at ECU - they have had some unimpressive games. Navy - not very likely. Tulsa and Houston - no way. if we can sneak up on ECU things look very much better. If not - 5 wins is about max.
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?
I usually am more of a sunshiner, but I don't think any of the games are a sure thing. I could see us winning won against an ECU or Marshall and then being Rice's first win and losing to Tulane. I shudder against UH and Tulsa when the interceptions start. "Your announcer is Bill Melton."
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?I don't know, but I'd suggest starting at ECU next week.
"It's a couple hundred million dollars. I'm not losing sleep over it." -- David Miller
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?ECU is definitely beatable.
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?ECU, Rice, Tulane and Marshall are the best bets.
ECU will tell a lot about where the team is mentally. Victory there means a bowl game. No doubt. Need some special teams changes. Not that the students would be there the whole game, they rarely are, but wtih fall break in place, it would be just like us to win a big one.
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?While some are pointing to Rice and UTEP and now fearing defeat, I am pointing to Tulsa and Houston and saying they are now both beatable. I would not have thought so a week ago. This is a funny conference. I truly believe that any team is capable of beating any other team. On paper I would say we should beat Rice and Tulane with good chances at Marshall and against UTEP. But I think this week is a very winnable game.
Predictions are just that. Pure guess work from here on out. We could lose every remaining game but I believe with the slight improvement we have shown on defense, if our offense can get into any type of sync, we should be able to pull 4 or 5 more wins out of a hat. I do think this week is very important from a confidence standpoint. A loss at home could send us on the anticipated October downward spiral. If we go 0-5 in this strectch, November will be difficult to get back into a positive mood. All those who believe in psycho kinesis, raise my hand
Re: Where do we get 4 more wins?in sports, as in life, ya gotta win the home games. The ECU game is pretty close to a must win I think.
