Not Worried

5 wins gets us to a bowl.

We will beat Pitt, BC and Wake to get to 5 wins.

I also have had Miami as my upset game. 6 would be icing on cake.

I'm sticking to 2 more wins. Really hoping I'm wrong, but at least I'll be mentally prepared.

 

[SaltineWarrior]

I am. Look at what our opponents have done so far: LSU is about to fire Orgeron, MTSU beat one other team (a winless Bowling Green) and CMU made BC look like the Patriots.

If this team can get some production out of the RBs, cleanup the stupid mistakes and give this emerging defense more help, I'll be happy. But it really doesn't look good right now. Dino's call for a mid 2nd year spike cannot come soon enough.

Is the new apr for bowl selection out? gotta hope we a little higher then last year. This team can and will win 5.

We are screwed at 5. One less bowl this year and we dropped 5 points, we are a good deal lower than last year, around the middle of all FBS teams. It’s six or bust peeps.

Here are the rankings, we are about 65th or so in FBS. FCS and FBS are mixed together

New NCAA APR scores show who could bowl at 5-7

I had 5-7 for SU this year. Didn't think we'd lose to MTSU, but I had SU beating Pitt and BC. For me the Wake game just became more important.

how many of those teams ahead of us will be sitting at 5 wins is the question. Once you take out FCS and those that will get to 6 this is left. many of those will get to 6 but that doesnt really matter since 5 still beats us. how many get to 5?

We have BC/Pitt, MTSU could beat us on the field and then get to 5 and beat us again..

It is going to be incredibly tough. One less bowl this year means 2 fewer slots and that really hurts.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Banking on 5 wins qualifying for a bowl is not really a great way to think about it.

There's a lot of season left. Control your destiny.
