Tougher than expected. Sure easier than '10, but...

Howard is a bad team but much better (3-3) than expected.

Alabama State is 5 - 1 with a sole loss to...

UofM is doing much better than expected and nationally ranked.

PSU is doing much better than expected and nationally ranked.

Akron - as expected.

Toledo - better than expected. UT is a couple of OFFICAL's calls from being nationally ranked (if they had beaten OSU and 'Cuse). They let the Boise game get away from them.

CMU is our first opponent which is 'underachieving' this season. So far 5 opponents have overachieved and one 'as expected'.

On the backside of the schedule, CMU, Kent, and NIU are underachieving while WMU is surprising that crap out of me. WMU is good. UB better than expected too.

And Ball State is better than expected.

As I'm sure most know, the MAC West is much stronger than the East this year.

No cupcakes.

I am changing my out my 2011 team W-L from 8-4 to 6-6. There are things that has happened that I am comfortable with (injuries, lack of depth at key positions, etc).

I am not giving up on the team, I am just coming back down to earth...
