Realistically we may lose one of the conference games that I said we win. I'll say we should go 7-5 no matter what and we could definitely top that.
If we finish the season worse than 10-2, I will be disappointed.
We were 11-2 last year, return a majority of our contributors, *don't play Arkansas State and our only other loss was to #2 Clemson. We were undefeated against the SunBelt teams last year that we will play this upcoming year, in fact our conference schedule is exponentially easier this upcoming year as we traded Arkansas State and S. Alabama for NMSU and Texas State. We will be favored against ODU and Akron. Can you provide a logical reason why 11-2 should not be the benchmark? Anyone can post a GIF.
TXST could go 0-12, 1-11, or 9-3 (not likely) but it's February and no one really knows. People get injured, people transfer or walk away. It just nonsense (not saying inaccurate) to be predicting December in February. And I like gifs.
(also, thanks for immediately making TXST a win for you guys. I mean, everyone else is. Thus the 0-12)
It has been said that history is the best indicator of the future and this is a prediction thread. Still not sure my post warranted a shaking head gif, but I'll let it slide.

I think that cat (gif) is cute as hell.
All I can say is that I think Idaho will win 6 or more games next season and go bowling. They aren't the best in the SBC (we all know that), but they aren't the worst either, and they are definitely on the upward trend.
Our offense will score plenty of points. The question will be if we have our defense fixed yet.
