What are your predictions for FAU Football in 2012?

Ronniehuskerron said

As an outsider looking in, I would say that four wins or more would be a good start - but only if the players are engaged, playing hard, executing the plays and generally giving everything they have.  If you see that kind of effort with four wins, it means Carl has it going the right way and building something good going forward.

When Turner Gill went to Buffalo, they were considered the worst team in the FBS.  His first year, they played with discipline, effort and heart and you could tell they were on to something.  Progress in year one would be great, a bowl in year two would be outstanding.

I think Carl Pelini is the kind of coach that can make that happen at FAU.  And if he does better than that in year one, that would be okay too!

I feel very good about getting to four wins and the level of effort in the games I have seen in replay and highlights.  I feel really good about what they are building here.  The next couple years will be fun to watch.  You guys feeling good?

I think most of us were not seeing much of a future for this team or program 4 weeks ago. Things started to change with the win over Troy and now I think spirits are up and there seems to be some real potential in the coming seasons. Winning changes everything. The biggest question will be at QB next year.

Huge question mark.

We need somebody who can contribute from game one because… we need to be super-competitive in game one.

We have a chance to upset two important Florida teams next year and we need to seize that opportunity. Wish we had Wilbert for another year now.

WOW! Who'd a thunk ANYONE on this board would have ever uttered those word even a few months ago!

But give him for sticking it out and the Coaches credit for turning his career around - a pretty nice senior season from Graham!

Go Owls- two more home W's guys!

Most improbable statement of the season.

Very, very true however. Wilbert has been a stud this season.

Who would've thought that after last season , he'd now be Da Man.
Good for him, one of the great comeback stories.

Kid has an amazing turnaround and obviously worked very hard to do so.

He is the definition of zero to hero.  I was ready to pull a fan vs. Jimmy Clausen on this guy last year…now I like him so much he can have relations with my sister.

Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

Any chance he gets a Senior Bowl invite? He's quietly putting together a nice season

My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

I don't see why not as long as he keeps it up for two more games!
