Have the Courage to Predict the football team's record

[mrydel]

Curious but too lazy to pull up last season's preseason predictions, to see how many were even close.

I had it predicted perfect including a 45-10 over Nevada in the Hawaii Bowl, but it got deleted in the middle of a naked women thread.

You are one unlucky son of a gun.

okay, since smooboy asked, I wondered also......... so here are all the predictions I could dredge up from last year. some pretty good predictions made by some.
not everyone was 'brave' enough to venture a prediction (including me; also, couldn't find one from smooboy). posted purely for curiosity's sake. no offense meant to anyone.

Before the season predictions:

General: Welcome back ! Where have you been - this board has missed your insightful posts.

Yep, cutter, the extent of my predictions from last year was picking us to go 1-0, and I was RIGHT!!!

lol.....no slam intended. at least, you believed enough for the first game. obviously, my willingness to predict was even less. still, I was hopeful for every game.

[SmooPower]

10-4

[ontheedgeofmyseat]

Gomer is one courageous dude...

[SMU21TCU10]

7-5

[mustang addict]

I would say a final record of 9-5... this includes playing in the conference championship game and a bowl game--- Again!

[ponyte]

It depends:

If we have a perfect season, 12-0

If we are upset, say by TTU or TCU, then 11-1

If we are upset and have an off week against a good team, 10-2

If we have a an injuries but not a key player 9-3

If we have a few injuries and one is a key player is out, 8-4

If we have key injuries and a significant player is out and we have a key mental mistake (say blown coverage )in a close game, 7-5

If we have a few injuries, a key player included and another key player pulls a UT and gets arrested and we have a major mental error, 6-6

If we lose the entire defensive line to injuries, arrest or love sickness, and one key player on offense goes down, 5-7

If we have major injuries and lose our kicker and make multiple mental mistakes and JJ breaks his leg and misses one key game, 4-8

If we have major injuries, mental errors, multiple BLM moments lose our kicker and JJ for one key game and the scout team goes to seed, 3-9

If we have major injuries, multiple arrest, JJ and two assistants out for a key game, the scout team gives up, BLM moments become the norm again and mental errors, 2-10

If we have major injuries, multiple arrest, lose our kicker, loss JJ and two assistants, commit major mental errors, BLM moments become the norm , scout team gives up and we get that old losing spirit back, 1-11

If all the above happens and we have one game with CUSA officials making their usual crummy calls, 0-12.

If we are struck by an asteroid tomorrow 0-0!

Well, it wouldn't be the first time Oh, and if this happens, I bet a CUSA offical still screws up a game!

[Mestengo]

I Spy a guy that can check your lie.

[deepellumfrog]

7-5

[MidlandMustang]

Come on Cutter, so I accidently superimposed my numbers for last year's prediction. It was an honest mistake.
