I appreciate the homework you do for your predictions. Do you remember what your picks were before last season? I recall jotting them down but misplaced my notes.

I don't recall, except I missed FIU badly. I imagine you could go back on this board to about this time last year and find out.

You hit UALR on the nose. I think most of us agreed with you at the time. Picking where we will finish this comingt season seems a lot more tricky. But it would be pretty hard to justify a higher than middle of the pack finish at this point.

A middle of the pack pick would be logical, but maybe we could, by some miracle, have another really good season. At least that's always the hope going into the schedule. A lot will depend on the new players.
We have some good talent coming back, but not enough to win big. If two or three newcomers really add a spark to the team, we could surprise some folks, as well as us.
