that I am still slightly unconvinced about this team. There are still some things that they do not do well enough for me to consider them to be for sure among the upper crust of the league. But they are winning on the road, and that is one big plus.

I'm convinced we are as good as any team in the league other than MTSU. Does that mean I think we will go 15-1. No. We can still lose to just about any team in the league on a given night- there is not that much separation between teams 2 through 11. I also think we could beat MTSU. I think we'd have a reasonable shot at home- however, it seems quite unlikely that we could beat them at their place.

The only thing that worries me a little, is the BTH article which notes that Sun Belt teams are winning 60% of conference road games. I thought we were really a head of the game with 4 road wins. That stat would suggest we are not. However, I still tend to believe we are and that stat will change as the season progresses.
