Barring any big letdown, that's a pretty manageable schedule. While we'll still be young, expectations would have to be 7 wins minimum at this point - and you all know my thoughts on realistic expectations.

We had 7 wins this year and we have nearly all starters back. Why would the expectation be 7 wins again?

November is going to be a fun one this year. 3 games against contenders in the last 4 weeks in Kansas, Utah, and Kansas State

We have already seen this play out with the most talented team in ISU history, so not a stretch.

I do believe they are a 8-9 win team next year, but can't fault anyone with a lower win total.

Admittedly, OUT departure eliminates one "sexy" home game each season. We'll have to reinvent sexiness.

Looking at it with glass-half-full goggles ... 3 opponents have not played at JTS, Cincinnati and UCF. First meeting ever vs UCF.

FCS game is sort of an afterthought, but it's also first meeting of ISU and UND. FWIW.

Edit -- also Arkansas State, first meeting.

And don't ignore have hate-worthy games vs. Baylor and K-State.
No need. I'll be at the games... stop by my tailgate and soak in the sexiness. :jimlad:

LOL.... compared to what? Playing at the worst home field advantage in the country?

Would you rather play in a 60/40 neutral site or on campus with 100% fans against you?

And KU home games are not the same as 2014 anymore.

The 9/28 road game at Houston will be HUGE IMHO. CMC is awful in September. In theory, that should be a winnable game, but it wouldn't surprise me if we lost.

Very possible that we lose all of our road games this year.
