Anything below 5 AAC wins should be considered a disaster
Anything below 5 AAC conference wins should be considered a disaster. With teams losing to D1AA teams and the only stretch game being Cincy I think we should end up doing no worse than 5 conference wins. That added to at least 1 OOC win should have SMU at least 6 wins headed to some minor bowl one would think.

We can win the conference imo.

Re: Anything below 5 AAC wins should be considered a disaste
Fair question. The AAC games I think we will or at least should win are Temple, UConn, USF,Houston, and Memphis. We have a very god chance with Rutger because they have a weak defense. Cincy would be a stretch game for us though. UCF is a toss up imo.Grant Carter wrote:Which games do you think we will win?Rebel10 wrote:Anything below 5 AAC conference wins should be considered a disaster.

3 conference road wins is going to a tall order for this bunch. They've only won 2 the past 2 seasons combined.

Dream on. Not winning a game is a real possibility. A 5 or 6 win season would be fantastic after several years of recruiting futility and the Jones disaster two years ago of jumping ship before realizing God had more work for him to do with the inner-city youth in Dallas. He must be doing this out of the spotlight.

I would say USF and Houston are "maybe" wins, at best, and Rutgers might have a weak defense, but that team has loads of speed. I'm not ready to call that game yet.

Re: Anything below 5 AAC wins should be considered a disaste
Louisville alone makes the AAC a better conference than C-USA. They are a legit top 10 team with a top Heisman contender leading the way. And don't sleep on Cincy or UCF.

USF a maybe? Really? As the say on ESPN Monday night football. C'mon man. They got blown out by an unranked D1AA team.

Re: Anything below 5 AAC wins should be considered a disaste
The expectation should be that we beat Memphis, UConn, Temple, and USF, and that we win at least one of UCF, Houston, and Rutgers.
Before the season, I would have said 2 of 3 from the last group, because we have UCF and Rutgers at home, but Houston looked really good against Southern. yeah, it is Southern, but still....
