The first 5 games will tell us if we make a bowl. If we are 1-4 no bowl otherwise we might be able to get into a bowl if the defense plays lights out and the offense improves enough to average around 25 ppg

So, you're saying that if we're 5-0, there's a pretty good chance?

We start out 5-0 it's a lock for a bowl. I just don't see that happening

Schedule is much harder than last year. If I was betting my own cash I would bet no bowl. But I sure hope we can somehow manage six wins.

How on earth do you think that? Our OOC is definitely easier

FAMU < Western Carolina

Syracuse < NC State

Maryland < Maryland (lost most of their offensive production)

FSU = Wisconsin

Now in conference:

UCF lost most of their defense and all of their WRs...

ECU lost their QB, RB, and best ever WR...

Memphis lost the RB that burned us last year...

Instead of Houston we get Temple... which

U Conn is U Conn...

Cincy is Cincy...

SMU is SMU...

Navy replaces Tulsa... this might be the only one where we get 'harder'

Therefore:

The schedule is easier...

The team is better...

USF will go to a bowl at 7-5.

FSU>Wisc

Memphis 2015>Memphis 2014 Best QB in Conf

Temple 2015>Houston 2014 - Best D in Conf

UCONN - almost never win there

Cincy- fav to win Conf

Navy > Tulsa as you noted

UCF and ECU are toss ups at best

Last, "how" have we exactly improved from last year?

I do hope your optimism is correct. I am so tired of being let down by this coach and all of the BS he preaches.

Memphis lost 8 starters on defense. How can you honestly say they are better than last season. They lost their best WR also.
True, maybe I was being too easy on them. However, from my understanding (following their board), many of their replacements did have "significant" playing time. Also, their defensive system (coaches) are still in tack. I don't think they are a program that can simply reload on D but I don't think they will drop too far. My greatest concern is still their QB.

 

 

I get you but as we know from personal experience, it's hard to replace those parts.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
