Are we going to be good this year? Asking for a friend

Who is on our team even? Asking for a different friend

Make it quick too, please, as I am currently bleeding profusely after attempting to make an ice cube sandwich while listening to James Blake's "Limit To Your Love".

Please respond. Please send help.

We will likely go to a bowl if thats what you consider good, beyond that I wouldn't expect much.

We are going to be terrible

steve dave · « **Reply #4 on:** July 07, 2016, 03:35:40 PM »

our QB situation is what the experts call "shitty"

Emo EMAW · « **Reply #5 on:** July 07, 2016, 03:58:05 PM »

Our defense is going to be a "bright spot." And that's not a good thing.

ESPN says that, but I think the defense will find a way to be even worse than the offense.

We'll be fine. 7 wins. Probably not a contender this year.

bubbles4ksu · « **Reply #8 on:** July 07, 2016, 04:37:40 PM »

our most realistic shot at being "good" this year is if the d-line is "stellar." i think there's about a 20% chance of the d-line being stellar.

Knowing nothing about the other teams' outlooks for 2016 and just going off name, 5-7 or 6-6 depending on how many Briles players Baylor loses by 11/19. I'll come back to this in August.

I feel like I've heard Baylor's losing a lot after all and might suck. True?

So, what does that mean? Third best stats-wise? Effectiveness? For the D to be "good," it helps if the O is as well (so they aren't on the field all the time, or put in a bad spot). Pretty nervous about this predicto.

Tyler is such a oscar homer he's even qualifying his non-MBB tweets to make them excuse ready.

If this is true we will only win 4 games.

We are going to win the national championship.

I've heard there's a real chance of this as well.

We will win something in the range of 4-6.

I don't disagree with that range, but if the offense is better than the defense we won't come close to winning a road game and it'll take a surprise game to beat a B12 team vs someone not named KU. Our offense will not be much better than last year IMO.
