Our fine season last year influenced the pollsters to place us at #24 to begin the 2010 season. After looking over our roster, I'm afraid that's a very optimistic ranking.
At any rate, I'll take a bold chance and predict we'll go 6-0 at home. It's possible we'll lose all five of our road games, but I think we'll manage to win at Buffalo.
I'd be thrilled with a record of 7-4 or better. I'm not convinced we're talented enough to do much better than that.
