I, for one, will never consider a loss to mtsu, fiu, fau, utsa, uab, miami OH, or gardner webb acceptable. Ohio rides a fine line, usm is way down, and ecu is at home. Vtech is a loss most likely. Tulsa is a tough, but winnable game.
Add that up and with tulsa being a coin flip, and no meltdown losses, 10-2 should be the goal and expectation, with 9-3 acceptable. Less than that and Its a letdown with this schedule. Next year and going forward, if we dont win 10 a year, we are in trouble. No tulsa, or ecu anymore and adding even worse conference foes... Doc should look like the next coming of Bob Pruett, but will he?
That being said, due to my lack of confidence in this staff, i vote for a 9-3 season as they will blow one of the games vs Ohio, ECU or MTSU and lose to Tulsa and Vtech on the road.
