I'd say #13 and GMAC bowl, cause last years GMAC bowl was awesome and i would love to go back. But I want a MAC title, don't care if we are unranked and lose 3-4 games i'd rather have that than #10 and GMAC bowl champs without the MAC ring!!!!

Depends a little on how our opponents do. IF Bosie, Miami, Toledo could all have one loss seasons (with us being the one loss :wink: ) I think that would really help our strength of schedule and make those wins look even better. And IF Omar duplicates last season, (or something close to it) and is a legitimate Heisman candidate, our ranking and marketability go WAY up. IF all these things work out, I think it is possbile that we make a BCS bowl. Lotta 'ifs' in there, but I do think it is possible. :D

Banking on this requires heavy favorites like USC to loose two games....cause even with one loss they will be over rated,

I see Florida at 1, 2
i see us...undefeated with a one loss USC a one loss OSU or MI , Auburn between 10-15 with a two loss usc , auburn osu MI....esp if MI or OSU loose to MAc Schools and Bosie is strong as allways we will be potential #6....with breath held..and that is with Omar contending for heisman....if he is not for some reason we dont break 8....cant have a heisman canadate not play on newyears day now.......bcs would not like that...

assuming we are in the top 6...we would play the crapiest team like the utes did and roll them....utes got robed...they would have rolled USC like a low cut dress on prom night.

like you said way to early to break ou t and dye the crisco orange....

If we could be 12-0 after the MAC championship game -- an enormous challenge, but possible -- I think we'd be about 6-7 and maybe in the Orange Bowl.

10-1. Of course Toledo is always a tough game but at home we'll be able to handle them but I don't know about the away games to Wisconsin and Boise State. So I think we'll drop a game to one of them. But 10-1 MAC champs and def a good bowl isn't anything to feel sorry for! :)

What do I expect? Simply, the MAC Title. I want that more than anything.

I would love to see 13-0, MAC Champs, BCS Bowl (Orange Bowl would rule!) and a Top 10 ranking. It is so difficult to go undefeated...and we have some very tough games. But if we ran the table....why not? Utah did it. Miami almost did it in 2003. Boise State has been close as well.

A 12-1 or 11-2 record with a MAC title and bowl game would ensure a Top 25 ranking. I would be more than happy with that scenerio! Just win the MAC, baby.

I expect three things (in order):

1. MAC East Championship
2. MAC Championship
3. Bowl victory

A ranking in January would be nice, but will take care of itself if #1, #2, and #3 are accomplished.
