    How do we finish?

    Simple question. Feel free to explain your answer.

    Too tough to call. I think all games can go either way.

    Well yeah! That's why they play the games right? How do you THINK they will go? I'd say, if you're right, 4-8 would be the worst we should finish as our players gain experience and the team gels. If I were convinced that the problem isn't coaching, I'd probably go 6-6.

    7-5. We are good enough to be at 7-5 by the end of the season. All we have to do is eliminate turnovers. I think every game we will get better at that.

    Chances of winning, imo

    North Texas: 50%
    at FIU: 65%
    USM: 65%
    at Rice: 40%
    Tulsa: 50%
    at UTSA: 50%

    It's going to depend on turnovers most likely.

    Re: How do we finish?

    If we keep playing like we've been playing (turning the ball over in the red zone, missing FGs, etc...), the computers have it this way:

    UNT: 16% (30-16, loss)
    FIU: 43% (27-24, loss)
    USM: 69% (28-21, win)
    Rice: 8% (34-14, loss)
    Tulsa: 35% (31-26, loss)
    UTSA: 28% (28-21, loss)

    UNT 40%
    FIU 55%
    USM 60%
    Rice 30%
    Tulsa 50%
    UTSA 45%

    North Texas is probably the best football team left followed by Rice, UTSA, Tulsa, FIU, USM IMO.

    Call me optimistic, but if we can get this North Texas win, I'm thinking a 4 game winning streak going into Rice is more than possible. Steal a win between Rice and Tulsa, and finish off on the road against UTSA, 7-5 seems very doable. I'd be ecstatic after the way this season started and what a great way to finish off the year!

    +1 I think the UTEP win on the road was just what the doctor ordered to avoid a total meltdown season. I think a win against UNT changes the trajectory of the season into bowl contention.

    Re: How do we finish?

    North Texas 4%
    FIU 90%
    Southern Miss. 100%
    Rice 17%
    Tulsa 77%
    UTSA 87%

    CUSA is fantastically weak. We are trending up right now. If we play like we played at UTEP we should be fine.

    I only see us beating USM or FIU and one more - maybe UNT or UTSA...

    I keep telling myself we are one extraordinary game from Dixon at UTEP from being 1-5...

    Anyway you slice it, it is not very comforting

    That's where I'm at. I hope I'm wrong, but I just haven't seen the team as a whole putting it together. It'd be different if we were getting better game to game. That said, CUSA is VERY weak.

    What's your point?
