Not sure how big your boat is. How many starters do you have returning?
Seventeen.

Well, if a large number of returning starters and a 4 yr QB are the secret ingredients, I guess we will meet in the Championship game. I think we have 19 coming back plus a goodly number of backups with some starting experience, from a team that won 6 of their last 7, including our bowl game. Our QB has not started every game since his arrival, but he did start the first game of his (RS) freshman year, and has started a large number of games every year since, misssing some to injury and some to competition. A lot of Rice Owls think his backup is better though.
The proof will be on the field, not on paper, and if we perform as I think we should, we might very well be one of the teams in the championship game. If yours is the other one, it should be a heck of a battle.
Good Luck. Looking forward to this season.

Likewise. The Blue Raiders' inaugural season in CUSA will be a lot of fun.

Got to watch the Owls in their bowl game and I was most impressed. Lots of poise and athleticism.
