C-USA FPI Predictions

Edit: Sorry don't know how this ended up in recruiting. Probably my fault.

If we end up 3-9 and UTSA goes 3-9 this board will burn to the ground.

I think you meant UTSA at 9&3. Both projections I have seen give us 3 to 4 wins, which is about right. Maybe 5 if we get a few breaks.Lamar,UAB,UTEP, and Rice, with Army and FAU as maybes.

This prediction seems to think we'll see no improvement from the team from year 1 to year 2 and we'll be extremely unlucky as well.  Instead of doing worse by two games I think it's much more likely we'll be better by two games.

I truly think this defense can get us those 2 more wins.  Very excited to see this defense play.

Agree.
I think this defense will play better with Reffett in complete control.   Hoping English is the real deal, LBs stay healthy, and Khairi steps up his already-solid game.

5 wins, I'll be disappointed, but I'll understand...

6 wins will give me confidence that we are really making progress.

> 6 wins means SL was a great hire and probably moves on very soon.

< 5 wins: barring injuries at QB or the OL providing us with some excuses, this will be very disappointing if we only win 3-4 games. This schedule is easier than anything we have had in a long time.

5 wins or less:  There had better be some serious injuries... not as concerned with QB as I am with the LBs in Reffett's scheme, but yeah, the OL depth is thin as well.
Stagnation or regression is not good when Littrell's system has exploded in year two everywhere else he's been.
6 wins: means we lost our bowl game.  Satisfactory improvement, but slightly disappointing.
7 wins: Should be the expectation... whether that 7th win is during the regular season or during the bowl game.
8+ wins:  Need to start worrying about losing Littrell. I'll be extatic.
