Speaking logically here we have 0 points of reference. New coach, new staff, new players, new conference, not a single down played.  There's not even enough to make an educated guess. It could be great, or it could be horrible. Time will tell. 

Exactly. How about we have a starting Quarterback first? Or a two-deep?

C Rod said it first.

 

I just want to watch the SMU, UTSA, Tulane, UAB, and Memphis games and enjoy it.

This is where I’m seeing our wins, too.  
 

As far as potential losses are concerned:  With a first year coach in our first year in the AAC, just be competitive, play disciplined, and look like we belong.

.500 again, but we are OK with it because it's not Seth's 12th season of .500.

McCarney:  2011, @ FIU L 16-41 (5-7)

Dodge:  2007, @ OU L 10-79 (2-10)

Dickey:  1998, @ OU L 9-37 (3-8)

Simon:  1994, ACU W 48-0 (7-4-1)

Parker:  1991, ACU W 24-0 (3-7-1)

Nelson:  1982, @ Baylor L 17-21 (2-9)

Tyler:  1981, @ Kentucky L 6-28 (2-9)

Moore:  1979, UTEP W 35-0 (5-6)

Fry:  1973, UTA L 7-31 (5-5-1)

Plus, I think a tougher conference. I feel the first season is a wild card of a year, but I think it will be magic next year. 

I like what this coach is doing compared to anything I have witnessed in the past. I think 9-4 would be interesting. I feel like Eric has come into this prepared.

Hardest prediction I have ever made.  I would like to think optimistic and have them 1 game over 0.500.  But that wouldn’t square with my opinion of Seth as a mediocre coach but not a bad coach.  If they get a little more production out of the QB position,  accentuate the running back talent they have and a defense that can make critical stops in the second half they can exceed any realistic expectations we have.  Right now I can’t give them more than 4 wins.  I think that would be the season total over/under wins total for Vegas betting if they posted odds.

We're always world-beaters before the season starts and optimism is usually at an all time high when we get the pads on.  However, I think we are asking a lot of a new coaching staff, new system and new players at key positions.  We'll be better in the second half of the season, but that's going to be the toughest stretch of our schedule.  I'm between 3-9 and 4-8.  Would love if we do better than that, but I think we will need a lot of breaks to fall our way to get to or above .500.

Rebuild year? Check
New coach(es)/schemes? Check
Harder conference? Check
 

This year will be a hard watch. If we win 5, it's would exceed my expectation.

4-8, sadly no bowling. Shake it off, and next year will be a major improvement.

I’m somewhere in here.  

I think there is a real chance that the defense is a lot better, but that the offense is a lot worse.  Doesn’t seem to jive with Morris’ history of usually fielding top offenses.  Just having trouble seeing that based on the QB and oline play so far this spring.  Maybe these guys will make a massive leap over the the few days, off-season and through fall camp.

      WBB at Oregon (11/12/24)

      The 2-0 ladies deserve a game thread. After taking care of business against two D1 opponents this week, they travel to Eugene to play an Oregon Ducks team in what should be a winnable game. The Lady Ducks are 2-0 after wins over California Baptist and Nevada, but are coming off a season in which they finished last in the Pac-12 at 11-21, 2-16 and lost in the conference tournament to Colorado, 79-30. After SFA transfer Kyla Deck led the way against Alcorn State with 27 points, the ladies used a much more balanced effort yesterday to beat Texas Southern. Four were in double figures: Moore with 20, Wooten with 16, Hardaway with 15, and Lampkin with 11. The ladies play at a fast pace but still are too sloppy with the ball from what I picked up yesterday. This will be a great opportunity for a win against a power conference opponent.

      Morris Weekly Press Conference (11/05/24)

      Yes he did. It would be assisting to not acknowledge it. But notice he also said the result wasn’t satisfactory “the last couple of weeks.” It has been two years.

      Prediction vs Army

      ESPN line is down to Army -3. I wonder if this is based on any knowledge of their QB1 being out for the game?

      Morris Weekly Press Conference (11/05/24)

      You need to listen to that again. Notice that he specified in what ways he was doing a fantastic job--he is a hard worker, etc. But he clearly stated that the defensive performance was unsatisfactory.

      Morris Weekly Press Conference (11/05/24)

      That was not my takeaway from that coach speak answer. What I did takeaway was that he wasn’t considering a change during the season. He also said Caponi was doing a “fantastic” job.
