What are your predictions for FAU Football for 2012?
Here is the link to our schedule: index.php?topic=40525.0
I personally think that based on the fact that we have a new coaching staff, new offensive and defensive play book and new attitude that we will catch teams off-guard. Teams will have a tough time preparing for FAU.
My prediction is for an overall record of 6 & 6 and a Sunbelt record of 5 & 3.
GO OWLS!

My heart says 7 wins. My brain says 3. But then again, if my noggin was right more often, I'd be at Harvard and not FAU ;D

AND imagine a D not so tired from having to go back out after the O doiNg 6 or 7 three and outs A GAME! Goona be a good year, I call for 7-5 overall, 6-2 Belt!
MTSU O; only 2 returning starters on OL (only 1 300 pounder)
MTSU D; lose 39 of 44 starts from DB's! And lose top 4 tacklers from last year! 2nd game of year, they will now nothing of the new FAU O!
WIN
NTSU O; Lose Dunbar at RB - nuff said there
NTSU D; Lose 9 of top 11 tacklers including 7 of 8 on DB two deep (all 4 starters!) from last year. Ours and theirs 2nd Belt game of year giving them little time to adapt ALL theses new D starters to college ball, let alone our new O! They will have already played LSU, Kansas St. and Troy!
WIN
ULM O; Small OL (one 300 pounder) but good passing game weak running game.
ULM D; Lose 6 starters including top 2 on DL (DL will be small w/267 lb. NT) and top two LB.
Tough Loss
S.AL O; Installing new faster temp O (did not do great in spring). Had played ball control run O.
S.Al. D; Small D line (265 lb. NT)
Have only played 2 FBS level teams in history. We git them after they have played NC St., Miss. St., Troy, and Arky St.!
WIN
Troy O; good QB, explosive O
Troy D; Lose Massaquoi on DL, D awful last year
Tough Loss
WKU O; Lost Rainey - nuff said, he was their entire O he past 3 years
WKU D; Decent D
CLOSE WIN
FIU O; Lose QB and STAR WR Hilton
FIU D; Very good D
Close WIN to send them packing!
L-Lafayette O; lose TE Green, but good O
L-Lafayette D; lose 7 starters!
Upset WIN!

Two wins is a bit low. Three would likely be a better's stance…….
Safe, but still some risk to cash in on.
Going a little more aggressive for now, and if an improved offense presents itself in camp might revise:
Two "cupcakes", plus new found discipline and better game management, equates to 4-8 overall and 3-5 in the Belt.
Not seeing any OOC action being winnable aside from the supposed body bag contest against Wagner.
Only thing is, not sure what we will get to "see" out of fall. Likely to remain closed at this point in time…….
