Cincinnati and Baylor are the only two teams that look like possible wins, but I’m hoping we can hang with TCU and either Iowa State or Kansas. Still looks like 2-3 wins max, but if, a big if, the team makes dramatic improvement on offense we could snag one or two more.

No, we obviously have a much better defense than they do. But it’s a gigantic red flag that their offense outperformed ours. I’ve seen nothing to this point that suggests our offense is good enough to win games against P4 competition.

Margin of victory is a bigger more majestic flag to me.

I agree on Cincy. I think ISU will be a good defensive game which means we need our offense to execute at a higher level, if we do that we can certainly pull it off.
I am going to predict wins over Baylor and Cincy, plus at least one more victory.
Being the Pollyanna that I am, I think we will get at least one surprise victory.
Hopefully Utah at home!

Outperforming Sam’s MoV by 6 points is an incredibly low bar. What record do you think the Bearkats would have in the Big 12?
Worse than ours, for sure.
We’d beat them by at least two TDs.
Preseason, just glancing at the schedule before any polls or computer rankings came out, I thought we’d go 5-7.
That included a win at home against UNLV.
So automatically, that drops to 4-8 with the UNLV loss.
However, after seeing what our future competition has done over the course of three games, and in spite of the improvement we have shown over the last two games, I am dropping the over/under on UH wins this season to 3.5.
We are currently an underdog in every game left on the schedule. Per FPI, we are dogs by
@Cincy 4.5
Iowa St 2.5
@TCU 11.5
@Kansas 10.5
Utah 8.5
Kansas St 11
In order to get to four wins, we need to win the next two games. On average with the pointspreads of the last four games, we figure to win one of those.
So the over/under is currently 3.5 wins. If we win the next two games, it moves to 4 games. If we split the next two, it moves to 3 wins. If we lose to both Cincy and Iowa St, it moves to 2 wins.

1 or 2 wins, season start I shot high at 4.
Ouch !
Things are looking up but NOT today.
A few more wins unless QB takes a improbable upswing.
At 31-0 with no Greg Ward or Case Keenum in sight, I am calling the Cincy game a loss with 18 minutes to play and Cincy taking over on downs at midfield.
After today, the O/U on wins this season is now 2.5.
That moves to 3 if we beat Iowa St, and drops to 2 if we don’t.
They beat Baylor. Thats it
My prediction: 2-10
Against Big 12 talent, even our solid defense looked bad. We have 0 chance on the road
Iowa St, KSU & Utah will shut down our run game. And we have no offensive playcalling to win us games
Whatever Barbay is doing. Get rid of it. Its a losing strategy. I feel bad for the WRs. No stats

Don’t automatically put Baylor in the W column. Coach will be fighting for his job and needs a W to keep it.

No QB to get the ball to the WR. Might as well run the wishbone.
Baylor has a solid defense. That might be our 4th or 5th loss by shutout
