Was that so painful? So, 6-6/4-4. That's what I think. As mentioned earlier in the week, I think we could win at Central and OU. If we can, and we start to gel late in the year when the games get really tough, then we could still win the East. It is possible, but not likely. We are very young, and I do not believe we can go on the road and win tough games. Just as likely is a loss to Miami and a 5-7 season.

Here's the game by game:

Wisconsin--They have their problems, but we are too young to compete. They will run on us, and we do not have a scoring machine to keep us in the game this year.

Buffalo--We've already lose to Buffalo once in my lifetime. Its enough. They played us tough last year, but we should win.

Fla Int--On the road, anything could happen. We should still win.

Kent--At home, we should win. They may be improving, but it is still Kent.

Ohio U--I think we lose on the road to this team, which is improving, and can make OU a tough place to play. This is winnable, but I think the Bobcats win.

OSU--Buckeyes blow us off the field.

EMU--It's EMU. Our home schedule is embarrassingly easy.

CMU--This is really tough. Good team, well coached, tough place to play. I'd be really surprised if we won this one.

Temple--This one should stay within 21 points, but we will win.

Akron--Can't see us winning this one the road. If we do, we play for the East title one week later.

Miami--I think we win this one. They are young but talented like us, and we win at home in the middle of the week.

Toledo--No way at this juncture am I picking us to win at the Glass Bowl. This one should not be close--let's hope it doesn't matter.
