I can see us going 4-0 at home. Away more like 2-2 because of UCF and/or ECU but hopefully we can sneak past and be 3-1 there.

Ok now...back to Earth. :roll:

I would be impressed if our guys could go 5-3 with that schedule. If we get destroyed in the non-conference, it would not shock me to go 2-6 in conference play

A decent team could go 7-1 with that schedule...by gosh the AAC FB is so bad we could actually scrape together a bowl

Yup, 4-0 at home and possibly 3-1 on the road. We went 4-4 with a horrible undermanned team this year so woth a full squad I expect we hit 7-1.

Hand the ball to Gresham and watch him roll over the defense, celebrate touchdown, repeat

Just to bring some of the hype, overexcitement, positivity and exhilaration (HOPE) from basketball: I think we will do better this year. 8-4 at least. June always pulls a trick out of his [deleted] and wins when he needs to. Just remember to #NeverForgetTulane

Not sure if trolling or delusional. SMU won't beat UH, Cincy, UCF or ECU. I honestly expect all four teams to blow out SMU. Those four are the top AAC teams and are expected to contend for the title and Access Spot. SMU will be lucky to win 4 games in 2014.



THE TROLL IS BACK! Why do you keep tormenting SMU boards? Can you just [deleted] OFF and leave us be?

Cougar King, you are from Houston so obviously you will be biased to think that way. June is known to pull these tricks out of his sleeve and now he has all eyes on him due to our success in basketball. SMU is always looked at as an underdog so I would expect all the "experts" to say that those 4 teams will contend for the AAC. I think we have the talent to win the AAC and there should not be a reason why we don't next year. And lastly, I don't think you are qualified to be calling anybody troll in this board...you are the biggest one that plagues all of our conference teams boards.

That's the key. How is Burcham going to play. My personal opinion is that he will be very good.

He sure looked like he made big strides between Coog High and UCF before he got knocked out.

Agreed. It really helps to get some snaps in practice and to know you're the man.
