What say you?

Sure, this is a new team but there's good talent on it.

I predict 7 wins.

I think we close the season out with 3 wins & go bowling

4 wins. NSU, ECU, WKU, UTSA. I hope Im right about ECU/WKU. Toss up could be Charlotte, which could be an absolutely electric game if we manage to somehow have five wins at that point and a win would get us to a bowl.

We get 6 Wins total and in the process defeat East Carolina in our new stadium.

Where's the option for CFP? I have us beating Clemp's Son.

Got us down for 2 wins. NSU and Charlotte. Might win one more out of WKU/MTSU. I will be absolutely shocked if we win more than 5 games. Don't shoot the messenger

Five of us are going to be very happy this season

FIFY!

Realy need to win the home games.

3 possibly 4....(NSU, UNCC, UTSA, and possibly WKU)

I'm rolling the dice on this season, 6-6 no bowl game. CUSA now only have 5 bowl bids and 2 other what-ifs affiliations?

Four.

I voted 5.

It's a good poll, but your percentages are really misleading. For instance, with 31 votes, Norfolk State reflects a percentage of 18.13%. A little research leads me to believe that percentage is 31 of the total votes made for a win for all 12 games (31/171). However, I suspect those 31 votes are 100% of the voters participating in the poll, which is a little more telling. So just fsag, here is my adjustment to the current status, based on 31 voters.

Norfolk State 31/31 - 100.00%
Viginia Tech 2/31 - 15.50%
Virginia 2/31 - 15.50%
East Carolina 27/31 - 87.10%
Western Kentucky 25/31 - 80.65%
Marshall 2/31 - 15.50%
UAB 3/31 - 9.68%
FAU 9/31 - 29.03%
FIU 7/31 - 22.58%
UTSA 24/31 - 77.42%
Middle Tennessee 9/31 29.03%
Charlotte 30/31 - 96.77%

1. We all believe we will beat NSU.
2. Two die-hard fans think we will beat Tech and UVA on the road. Somehow, I have to believe both of these voters just went for the perfect record and 12 wins.
3. A solid 87% of us believe we will beat ECU here at home. You can put me in that group.
4. Our two perfectionists are back with wins predicted over Marshall.
5. Somebody joined our perfectionist twosome with a victory predicted over UAB -- on the road. Hmm, could that have been me?
6. FAU at home and FIU on the road turned up about where they likely should have, with the home game against FAU getting a little more support.
7. I'm actually a little surprised that only 77% expect us to beat UTSA at our house. In my most humble opinion, that should be very close to, if not, 100%.
8. I like that 29% of us think we can beat MTSU on the road!
9. And lastly, who's the numbnuts who didn't pick us to beat Charlotte at home in the last game of the regular season? Flog him!

Cheers everybody!

I figure we go 6-6 and we get the bowl game somehow someway because we surprised everyone again getting 6 wins and we are the media darling with our new stadium. We still have character.

6-6 with the most difficult schedule ODU has ever had? That would be a big leap forward for a team that still has major question marks throughout its lineup.

The system divides by the total number of votes of all posters instead of the number of participants. Options were limited to a multiple choice or single vote poll.

Yes, so you compile the number of posters then divide by that number if you want to get an accurate percentage.

So 36 Charlotte votes divided by a total of 39 posters = 92% believe ODU will beat Charlotte.

Or you can just look at who got the most votes.

The only wins I feel remotely comfortable about at this time are NSU and UTSA. Prove me wrong. Please.

I know someone who was on the field last night for the scrimmage. I asked them how the action looked on the field. They responded, "Stadium looks nice!"
