Bump for your last chance to vote.

Based on ESPN's FPI, The American is the top rated G5 conference. .tg {border-collapse:collapse;border-color:#bbb;border-spacing:0;} .tg td{background-color:#E0FFEB;border-color:#bbb;border-style:solid;border-width:1px;color:#594F4F; font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;overflow:hidden;padding:10px 5px;word-break:normal;} .tg th{background-color:#9DE0AD;border-color:#bbb;border-style:solid;border-width:1px;color:#493F3F; font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;overflow:hidden;padding:10px 5px;word-break:normal;} .tg .tg-cly1{text-align:left;vertical-align:middle} .tg .tg-0lax{text-align:left;vertical-align:top} .tg .tg-xuz2{background-color:#32cb00;color:#ffffff;text-align:left;vertical-align:top} @media screen and (max-width: 767px) {.tg {width: auto !important;}.tg col {width: auto !important;}.tg-wrap {overflow-x: auto;-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;}} Conf.

With 83 votes in the consensus seems to be around 6-7 wins. Some follow up question for those who voted: How bad a season could this team have and still allow you to maintain a positive outlook on future seasons. On the flip side: How good a season would you need to see to completely buy into this coaching staff?

There has to be a better uses for cocaine…

I can't control everyone.

I have no idea why some people are taking him seriously, much less acting like he is Nostradamus. Go read his timeline, he throws up a lot of noise, some of it is really, really off. The stuff he is getting right is the stuff other more established (actually connected) writers already had out. I was thinking the SEC was getting tired of all the aTm yell practices and is going to swap them out for us. Quick someone throw that on twitter. His track record is worse than this guy. Look folks, there are a handful of people who put out tweets that are usually on target. Even then, remember how they get thier information. They don't work for the NSA, they aren't sending in microphone equipped CIA cats to listen in on the SEC meetings, they get info by having connections. And those connections always have a bias.

I agree Tulsa is going to be tough. That's a killer QB. How would the board react if we won the first six and then lost the last six?

Yes, if there is REAL news on realignment that affects Mean Green football, I think it belongs here.

Over/under on total enrollment this year is 45,000. I’m taking the over.

Something has to happen. They can’t stay in a four team conference. If the MWC IS REALLY going to stick together, then I have no idea what is going to happen.

This might be ban level trolling.

The dishonor is unbearable.

Based on ESPN's FPI the Mean Green (FPI -4.4) are expected to go 6-6 this year: .tg {border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0;} .tg td{border-color:black;border-style:solid;border-width:1px;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px; overflow:hidden;padding:10px 5px;word-break:normal;} .tg th{border-color:black;border-style:solid;border-width:1px;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px; font-weight:normal;overflow:hidden;padding:10px 5px;word-break:normal;} .tg .tg-qika{background-color:#c0c0c0;color:#efefef;text-align:left;vertical-align:top} .tg .tg-0lax{text-align:left;vertical-align:top} .tg .tg-kd4e{background-color:#34ff34;text-align:left;vertical-align:top} @media screen and (max-width: 767px) {.tg {width: auto !important;}.tg col {width: auto !important;}.tg-wrap {overflow-x: auto;-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;}} Team FPI Projection California 3.3 L @FiU -16.1 W @LaTech -8.2 W ACU NA W @Navy -9.3 W Temple -9.4 W @Tulane 2.4 L Memphis 1.3 L UTSA 0.2 L @SMU 4.7 L @TULSA -7.4 W UAB -3.7 L What is your projection?

I'll bring this up to @Harry but in the past we've wanted to focus on Mean Green sports.

We don't want to stifle conference realignment discussion, but football season is about to be here and we would like some actual football threads on the football forum. From now on, threads primarily focused on conference realignment should be posted in the Conference Realignment Forum. Thanks for you understanding, and Go Mean Green!

Someone ping me when Jim Williams is right about anything. Looking at his timeline, it’s a cavalcade of L after L.

i hearby formally sanction you to start the thread.

If you had to try to stop Rod Brown wouldn’t you try everything?

Great update @TheReal_jayD.

Buy once, cry once. I like them, but I think the college players consider them passé. I won't abide Nilla Wafer slander on this board.

Off the top of my head: Indiana K state Baylor Vanderbilt

If I am, no one told me. I'll be honest, I'm not sure how much you can learn in practices. Even in full contact scrimmages, you are just playing yourselves. @TheReal_jayD is going to have a report up this weekend talking about some surprises at camp so far. I'm a life long Canon guy.
