Everything else aside, unless we lose half the team during the CCSU game I don't see how it would be possible to beat Utah St on the road (at significant altitude) and lose at home to Cuse.
6. Edsall could have won 4 vs. This schedule. PP could gave won 3.
4,500 ft of elevation is pretty significant. I doubt that we have the budget to send the team there ten days on advance to acclimate.I don’t think we win against Utah State but it’s a lower altitude than Denver. It’s really not that big of a deal.
So many people are taking Liberty because using this (and the gap in cbs sports and others that are equivalent) they are 82 and we are 131. Even if it is not even that broad a spread, they are still considered to be significantly better than us. I have no idea how many we’ll win, but 82 is better than 131 when making picks.College Football Rankings: 2022 CFN Preseason Ranking Of All 131 Teams

I will go 7-5….not sure why so many have us losing to Liberty when their QB last year who was made them a really good team last year was drafted in the first round I think and is gone….and they are #82 based on this ranking…..

Damned straight we will like it. And if that happens, the next year a non zero chance of 7-6 although 5-7 more likely.3-9 and you’ll like it
They are a 28 point underdog to Utah State. Trust the guys that make the lines over some clowns rankings.College Football Rankings: 2022 CFN Preseason Ranking Of All 131 Teams

Why are you rooting for anything less? If we assume Mora recruited actual D1 football players from the portal and Edsall's last class was actually worth a damn. If we also assume Mora hired competent coaches and that the players actually listened to them this offseason, then why the hell can't we be a little optimistic that we can squeak out victories against...
CCSU
Cuse, at home, with its coach on the hot seat. Thought this is my stretch call being so early.
F-I--U
Ball State
UMass at home
Army in the last game of the year after Mora has had an entire season to prepare.
While it's highly likely we won;t win all of these games, to write off any them, you might as well stop being a fan.
Having the chance to win 6 with 2 left would be a successful first year and I wouldn't bet on not getting number 6 at that point. Having less than 4 going into the last home game vs Liberty should be considered a failure. I don't care about moral victories any longer.
more than a few here had us at fair to middlin in their guesses. 4,5,6 wins were not so scarce.Right where I thought we should be.
Samsonite?!?! I was way off.I know the anti Syracuse and anti BC bias is strong around here. Right now Syracuse is a question mark like we are but BC is going to be good.

Some of you are crazy but I love you anyway
Well that didn’t age wellI know the anti Syracuse and anti BC bias is strong around here. Right now Syracuse is a question mark like we are but BC is going to be good.
