I can accept 3 losses IF the passing attack develops this year and is good by the end of the year. realistically, with a first year starter, we could lose some games just because of that.

otherwise 2 losses.

Agree - especially since the schedule is more difficult.

I don't necessarily expect much improvement in W/L since our schedule is harder and most of our offensive production will be new starters, but I do expect to see improvements through the course of the year that make me think 2019 is a year we compete for an actual division title. (meaning 1 or less losses).

No you won't and you'll find a way to blame not only Orgeron but Joe Alleva, FKing Alexander and Derek Ponamsky as well...not to mention Steve Ensminger

I am with you. Only way I can handle 3 losses. To see drastic improvements in the passing game. If we are still mediocre with it and lose 3-5 games it will be considered a failure. I know this schedule isn't easy but the standards shouldn't change. I hope we can pull it off

that's a myth and an excuse. First year staters, even freshman first year starters, can and do play at the highest level.

Remember, the NC game had Jake Fromm, a true freshman, and Tua, a true freshman.

Stop with the "first year starting QB" nonsense. It's an antiquated notion.

Year 2 of coach O...better then last year so 10-3. if not he's not building a program but depleting it. He has no excuses for a record any less bc the offence and defense will be better. With that said I have faith in coach O he will get us to a championship
