Best Case (9-3): “Maybe I’m drinking the Kool-Aid, but Willie Fritz is a magician. The Cougars revamped their offense with the addition of quarterback Conner Weigman and running back Dean Connors. The defense was quietly formitable last season, and should be able to remain above average despite a few losses. Contention is probably out of the cards, but a nice season is possible.”
Worst Case (4-8): “For all its talent, Houston still has a number of new faces. Nearly every position on offense has transfers vying for playing time and the Cougs lost heralded defensive coordinator Shiel Wood to Texas Tech. The schedule also has a number of coin-flip games that could easily go the wrong direction.”
sorry, giving anyone 12-0 is unlikely, the conference does not have a dominant team, so az state and tech a no go, 10-2 should win the conference outright.
the local cougars could definitely go 4-8, thats not a reach for that article.
A wide margin but both are possible. Unfortunately I think we’re closer to the worst than best. Regardless looking forward to a new offense, I’m sure it will be more watchable than last year.
Don’t have to give anyone “12-0” as you say but on the other end you don’t say “az state and tech a no go”….ASU was picked 16th by the experts last year….and I don’t care how much cash Tech has put into their program, they still have to be coached up….they aren’t Ohio St.
Accepting losses as “no-go’s” months before any team has played is a Loser’s Mentality.
We brought in a 5 star QB when we had no QB last season + our OOC is considerably easier than last season + CWF has had a full year to run this program and is going into year #2 + we play in the Big 12 NOT the P2 and have no P2 opponent in our schedule this season to beat us up.
Have to agree. With the massive improvement potential in QB and CWF in year two, I like 9-3. If Arizona State and SMU can make the playoffs why can’t we.
