6-6 is the baseline. Anything less is under, anything more is over.

+1

Pretty much sums it up for me.

7-5 or 8-4. We get back to a Leavitt-esque season.

 

I have a bad feeling about UCiF though. They're better equipped to beat us than ever. 

 

Though, they are coming off a good year and they have a curious tendency to waffle back and forth.

 

2012 10-4
2011 5-7
2010 11-3
2009 8-5
2008 4-8
2007 10-4

Although I am looking for a 7 win season I would take a 6 win season and bowl game if we beat UCF.

6-6 is doable but tough...7-5 would be a great turn around.

Bowl game is my benchmark for success, whether it's a high mark or not. Basically saying the same thing as JTrue, but I don't want to "squeak" into a bowl, I want to see this team work hard & be undeniable.

Hmmmmm....seems like we already did this once. Maybe opinions have changed since?

4 wins. McNeese State & Florida Atlantic, topped off by DOUBLING - that's right DOUBLING - this year's conference win tally with a total of TWO games. And remember, sports fans, when the competition smells blood in the water, those pearly-whites come a' gnashing. The competition KNOWS that USF, weak as it was last season, lost twenty-five players and will be ripe for the re-picking this season. They're just like us. Remember when the schedule would come out and we'd look at it and say..."Oh, look, we play [insert suspect opponent here]...that's a win". 

That was the December take.

As of now, maybe toss in one other conference win for 5.

Shocked and surprised at anything over that.

    "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."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
