Appalachian State 8.5
Georgia Southern 8
Arkansas State 7.5
UL-Lafayette 6.5
Troy 6
Georgia State 4.5
UL-Monroe 3.5
Idaho 3.5
New Mexico State 3
South Alabama 3
Texas State 3

I like the over of Ark St, GA St., and Idaho and under for ULL.

Really surprised how low that Ark St. number is, even if they lose all the toss up games they're 8-4.

I believe Louisiana is getting the benefit of recent history here. People will see that and see last year as a blip on the radar of the last four years. However, in the history of their football program for the last twenty years, last year is much more like them than the previous four, thus I would take the under.

I believe Troy will be either 1-4 in the conference this year with Texas State rebounding to finished with 5 or 6 total wins. The others are anyones guess as no one saw Georgia State finishing with 6 wins and nearly defeating Arkansas State in Jonesboro last season.

Troy, GSU, and USA look low. Especially USA. I know they have some issues, but I think they get at least 4 wins.

Troy at 6 is safe, in my opinion. They could and should win more than 6 games with Silver coming back however it's doubtful that people would bet the over if it were placed at more than 6 due to the past few seasons.

Idaho over is where I'd put my $

Trust me, it was not a surprise to any Red Wolf fan that GSU gave us one heck of a game last year. See 2013 when the "Fighting Albert Wilsons" were a onside kick away from getting their first FBS win in Jonesboro.

I think the surprise is in hindsight considering the way Arkansas State steam rolled the rest of the conference.

At least until you all took Jesse Chapman out of the game for App.

I'm piling up on USA >3...at worst, it's a push.

I feel very good betting Idaho to win more than 3 games. We won 4 last year and didn't lose many people.

Hate that early schedule. Wish UNLV were earlier, but still feel repeating four isn't any sort of stretch for the Vandals with some opportunities to be in the hunt for six or seven.

We also dropped you guys and Georgia Southern off our schedule this year, which should help. We won't beat UW, Wazzu or App on the road, but all the rest of our games are winnable. I think we'll be favored against Mont. St., at least slightly favored against NMSU, USA, GA St. and maybe even @ULM, Troy will be a tossup going in, and we should have more than a puncher's chance @UNLV, @ULL and @TXST.

Looking at that, 4 feels like a safe bet. I think we're at least 50/50 to get to 6. But we're a D-Lineman or two short of me feeling really confident and as usual it's going to come down to depth.
