Anything less than 8-4 would really suck....

My predictions:

L - at Florida
W - Idaho
W - at Toledo
L - at Virginia Tech
W - Rhode Island
W - at Akron
L - Miami
W - at UMass
W - Eastern Michigan
L - at Ohio
W - Kent State
W - Buffalo

8-4 record. The obvious losses to me are Florida and VT, and the obvious wins are Rhode Island, Akron, and UMass. The rest of the games could go either way. I may be wrong on my predictions for Toledo and Miami.

Is the game at Columbus Crew stadium included in the season ticket package?

Yes, it's included, but the parking deal ISN"T. And they're also offering a deal where you can exchange those tix for another Home game if you can't make it to C-Ville that day. =D>

That exchange deal is offered for any home game, just not widely publicized. If you can't go to the Rhode Island game, you can turn in your tickets ahead of time and exchange them for two tickets to any other upcoming home game. Toledo is always excluded from that, but Toledo is an away game this year.

My prediction for this year...12-0 and a national championship

ha, seriously I'm actually very interested to see the team play at Flordia. With that Gator defense returning 9 or 10 starters from last year, (not sure of the exact amount) we'll get to see exactly how this offense will stack up - Because I think it has the chance to be a very good 1

I do like the MAC schedule but I'm worried playing UT early, the UMass game on the road, and EMU at home, excluding the obvious tough games like Miami and @Ohio. I see EMU and UMass as trap games that could deter us from a MAC title run/bowl game.

Florida defensively is going to be scary good. Lots of talent returning, lots of talent coming in, and year two with one of the top defensive minds in the country as head coach. Offensive side on the other hand will probably be sluggish again.

I know you were joking, but we have to go 14-0 to win a national championship. :D

ha you're right...we'll go 14-0 then!!!!!!! I do think that 8 wins and very reasonable with the talent on this team and the good MAC schedule. Dare I say 9???

Anyone know the reasoning why we play the Spring Game on a Friday night?

Most everyone plays on Sat afternoons and it's difficult for out of town folks, who work, to get to BG.

( To get ready for the November espn tv games. Maybe? ) :eureka:
