    Your expectations for your team in 2015

    Another copycat thread from the pro football forum... what are your expectations for your team in 2015?

    I expect Penn State to win 7 or 8 games this year...

    Anthony Zettel has the potential to be a dominant force this season. Last year he had 8.0 sacks and 3 interceptions. Oh and by the way, he plays defensive tackle. I expect them to have another season in the top 5 against the run.

    Offensively, they are talented at skill positions, but the offensive line might as well be 5 human turnstiles.

    Should basically be a repeat from last year.

    For Texas Tech I'm hoping for 7-5 or 8-4. I think 8 wins and maybe a bowl game might be as high as I'd go right now.

    On offense we are really talented with Mahomes and Washington and a solid O-Line.

    On defense we're a train wreck but have a couple good pieces that might have a good year. We had a young secondary last year so hopefully that will be better this year.

    Overall if we can cut down on turnovers and score TDs in the red zone, we could maybe pull out an upset or 2, but that's a long shot.

    I do expect a return to a bowl game.

      Virginia Cavaliers: two wins.

      If we can get to bowling I will be freaking ecstatic. But right now I'm completely off the wagon.

        Anywhere from 11-1 to 8-4, will all be dependant on Dobbs health and the performance of the OL. When I look at the schedule there are a few games that I want to say that we win, but after the last 5 or 6 years its hard to convince myself to pick it.

        I think we beat Oklahoma in our house this year, but its early and some of the young guys might not be up to speed by then.

        I think we beat Florida, but.......................it's Florida

        I think we beat Georgia at home because I think our DL will control their OL and contain Chubb and I dont think they can beat us in the air.

        The game, outside of bammer, that scares me the most and I am more inclined to mark it down as a loss is the Arky game.

        If we can hit at least 8 wins and make it to a good bowl game, I will consider the season a success. Anything less than that will be a great failure with or without a healthy dobbs.

            Anywhere between 6-6 or 9-3. Don't think we will do much this year in mcelwain's 1st year. OLine is gonna hamper us big time.

            Losses
            Tenn,Ole Miss,LSU,Georgia and Fsu
            Wins
            New mex st, ECU,KY,Mizzou,Vandy,South Carolina and FAU
            7-5 overall hopefully we get a better record than that

              FSU I see probably going 11-1 with their current schedule, probably dropping that 1 on the road to GT or Clemson.

              LSU I think 10-2 even with the usual WTF at QB, losses against Auburn and Bama. Could be better if the QB play surprises.
              Saints, LSU, Seminoles, Pelicans, Marlins, Lightning

                I'll be shocked if we win more than 3.

                      9-3 with a 4th loss not out of the realm of possibility. Too many questions on the O-line, at LB and QB is a concern as well. But there is a ton of talent on the sidelines, so who knows.

                        Lose to Florida. Lose to Alabama. Because that's what we do.

                          Gators go 7-5 this year...the record may not indicate anything better than Muschamp's reign, but I expect it will be a much better 7-5 than it has been. Next year we go 9-3 and the following year we're competing for the SEC.

                            If Miami can land 6 wins, I'll be surprised. I have absolutely zero faith in Al and his staff. They continually get outcoached every single time they take the field. He's lucky to have access to the talent he has, however, much like at Temple, he'll never actually do a whole lot when you actually look at his body of work. I'm still waiting on that one marquee win that actually gives the program hope of anything positive, but I'm pretty confident that will never happen under this current staff. I'll watch every game like I always do, but I have a hard time believing I'll come close to enjoying the season at all. Nothing at all to look forward to. Players won't grow, coaches won't make adjustments, it's the same dance I've seen since he was hired and to top it all off, Al is likely here to stay since the program is stuck with an administration that really doesn't care about the state of the program and constantly likes to talk down to the fanbase like we're a bunch of idiots that know nothing.

                            So my prediction for Al Golden's "First Season" are 5-7 or 6-6 at best.

                              For BC, I'll take about 6 wins. We better win those two FCS games to start the year (I still can't wrap my head around how we got two of them), then we should be able to beat Syracuse, Wake Forest, Duke and NIU.

                              'Daz has been great at beating expectations, so I wouldn't be surprised with anywhere from 6-8 wins (it could be possible if Wade plays well). However, with the level of experience we have, 4 wouldn't be the end of the world either.

                              For USC, sky's the limit. I know we'll probably just flop like in 2012, but part of me says they can go the distance. I'll take 8 wins.
