you forgot to include the tulsa and houston games, ace.
Interesting that UAB went heavily for JUCOs this signing date. Depending on whether they arrive for spring practice-they may or may not be a factor-probably the best time to play UAB.
SFA - win
UAB - win
WAZZU - tossup
Tulane -win
TCU - humiliating loss to bring us back down to earth
ECU - toss up - huge graduation losses for them
Navy -L
UH - L
Tulsa -L
Rice -W
UTEP -W
Marshall - L, cold and rainy weather could ground our aerial attack. If a nice day we could win this one.
This of course assumes that this team learns how to win and seal the deal. I think ECU and WAZZU are toss-ups at this point. WSU is a really bad BCS team, but we were a really bad non-BCS team. So, the jury is out on that one. I think UAB and Tulane are games we need to win. They were right near us in the conference standings. If we lose either one of those games, look for a 2 or three win season. If we win both, then look for us to be near .500. 5-7, 6-6 or 7-5.
those games may be toss-ups to you but to the rest of the world and Las Vegas they are not. Preseason at least I see maybe three games where we might be favorites and that's streatching it with Tulane-probably at home and 10 win Rice because they lose a lot of players. Take that back I see 2 games at most we will be favorites in from a preseason perspective.

The Wash St. game will dictate our season. If we somehow go to the Pacific NW, and pull out a W, we will go bowling. This team needs a signature win to propel us into the future. I'm praying for a miracle, and the chance to go bowling.
We have 6 road games. I think we lose 5 of them. The one 'w' would be an improvement over how things have been.
That leaves 6 home games. Of those 6, we stare certain losses in the eyes of Navy, and ECU. Of the remaining 4, one should be a w (SFA) and the rest-UTEP, Tulane, and Rice-we go either 1-2 or 2-1. IF the team has improved, it'll be 2-1.
So that's 1-5 on the road
SFA makes 2-5
Navy and ECU make 2-7
and we windup either 3-9 or 4-8.
Anything better than 3-9/4-8 is a welcome surprise to me, and a pretty significant (over)achievement.
