Not fun to be on this list, but for those who complain about our current situation, how about ECU and Missouri? They've been playing football a lot longer than ODU, yet here they are, having very poor seasons and losing some games badly. I remember in the early 2000's ECU having a few seasons where they hardly won anything at all. I realize those schools play better competition, but a bad season can happen to anyone (also see UNC). ODU may end up anywhere from 2-10 to 4-8 for 2017,and it will sting. But I choose to believe ODU's future is bright.

If we played UTEP instead of UNT we would still have a decent shot at a bowl. Go figure. I still think we beat Charlotte and Rice to finish with 4 wins and FIU is slightly winnable. An upset over WKU, UNT or MTSU keeps the dream alive. Is it unlikely? Sure. But not impossible.
