FAN POLL: Football Games Owls Will Win in 2011

I think all SBC games are winnable as are all home games. But will we show up to all those games? I have gone back and forth about how many games we will win. Sometimes I think, "Ya, I can see us winning 7-8 games easily" and then I think about how untested we are on D and a rookie QB and I think "Oh god, we're going to lose every game" lol.

My prediction for the season is 3 wins.  Kinda randomly chosen, with no real thought behind it, but its what my gut is telling me.  Reasons for my choice have all been stated already, but mainly no QB, questions on offense, and lack of discipline over the past few years leading to stupid penalties.  As fauowl said, I"m also shooting low this year, and hoping to be pleasently surprised.    My only wish for this season is to open the stadium with a win against WKU.  We could honestly lose every other game, and I'd be OK with that as long as we win on OCT 15th.

Quotes from Morris state that the O-line is looking much better, now weather it is him just being nice about his teammates, or the line is legitimately blocking better for him and he sees it, we'll have to see for ourselves, but could be promising.

having basically a "rookie" QB, WR, and TE core will not get us a lot of points.


Darian Williams has plenty of experience at TE, but your right about QB and WR… I see us flirting with 6 wins…

Would make sense.

2007 - 8 wins
2008 - 7 wins
2009 - 5 wins
2010 - 4 wins

2011 - 3 wins?

I'd like to think we've hit rock bottom with 4 wins and we're due but the odds don't seem in our favor yet.

Finally had the chance to crunch this year's slate…not to be a "fuddy duddy", but:

4 Most Probable
5 Possible
6 Not likely

Here's the thought behind it…….

Id say yes.

There was already motiviation to win in the stadium because of it being new, now with Coach being on the way out I think there might be a new sense of focus. Add +2 to the win column, and I'll say FIU should be one of those. No way are these guys going to let Howard go out with a loss to the Kitties.

I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick @$$ and I'm out of bubble gum.

They better get to six…that's all we need to finish it out right for Coach…not to mention all of the assistants will need to end on a high note to have some momentum going into the administrative changeover that is going to be coming…
