I predict better clock management
(to include better TO usage)

Count me among those who think there was too much damage to expect such a huge turn around. I'm hopeful of 6-6. I think we upset BYU Friday night and lose one we shouldn't, my picks are Tulane and USF then win Stony Brook, Army, Memphis,Temple and SMU. 6-6, 3-5. Some hope and even some reason for optimism tempered with reality. We still have a ways to go to be considered a real "elite" team in this less than elite league, but as they say the journey to mecca begins with a single step.

I'm with FS on this. I think a ton of damage was done to the program, and that it will be a while before we can fairly judge HCBD on what he will be able to do here (as opposed to what he says here which I just don't give a crap about).

I would take 6-6 in a heartbeat. But there is a ton of question marks and a troubling lack of depth and I'm not at all confident this year isn't going to be much, much longer than that.

7-5. Kids got a taste of winning last year and like it.......a lot

"My gut tells me we split the home games (beat BYU & Boise St, lose to Cincy & SMU)"

Did he mean to reverse these?

5-7. Wins over SBU, Temple, Tulane, Army, Memphis

I think anywhere between 5-8 wins is a realistic expectation. I'm leaning more towards the higher end of the scale. I am going with 7-5 heading into a bowl game.
