If only they get better aim w/ their darts - I don't think we'll face GaSo again this yr

From the looks of those predictions, they don't think very highly of UAB right now. It looks like they expect us to end up 4th of 5th in the league, maybe win 7 or 8 games.

I understand that people need to create their content for clicks, but I wish they wouldn't come out with Bowl Predictions until at least Week 6.

ALSO, I wish they would do their research better for G5 schools and especially CUSA (can't wait to leave next year). I've seen them list schools that have played each other in the season match up again in a bowl prediction multiple times each year.

It's bad that I want matchups against the SBC now (excluding teams we've already played this year). A matchup against CCU would be great.

I would love to get a p5 or American or MWC team but I will enjoy any bowl game.

Really want want a P5 match up. If we have to play a Belt team CC or Louisiana. We owe both of them a beating.

I'm starting to think "No Bowl" is the most realistic outcome.

I think we'll make a bowl, by the skin of our teeth.

My expectation for the season has gone from 9-3 to more like 7-5 (if we're lucky) or 6-6.

Anyone remember the statements that this was arguably the most talented team in UAB's history?

The exact same thing that was said last year.

These two teams MAY have been the most talented and/or deepest we've had, but the boneheaded play and bad coaching robbed us of knowing for sure.

Yes and I am sure at some point the poster(s) who said this will address and stand by those comments with a caveat or two.

I'm kinda in same mindset. I looked at what we have left & based on some predictor site we have a 60% or greater chance to win every game left except LSU but I was only seeing about 2-3 games we could/should win of the games left based on play so far.
