Make your prediction! Bowl or no bowl?


Recommended Posts

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 don't see anything that gives me confidence...

 

 

Our first two games will tell -- how well we have structured our team...

 

 

A really EASY opponent and a really TOUGH opponent... My bet, we will struggle with both (in an ugly way)

 

 

 

 

[no bowl]
