Hornets picked to finish 7th by coaches
- Thread starter Green Cookie Monster
- Start date
Kinda what I expected the coaches and media to pick. Oh well, time for the team to show them that they are not in the bottom 3rd of the league anymore.
If they are going to pick the same ranking year after year why all the hype surrounding signing day, publications, pre-season polls etc. by the national media?
I guess it gives somebody a job.

That's 3-7, the DII schools don't count in my book as W's. They are gimmee's.
Sure hope we make more progress than this prediction.

Here is what I predict will happen:
HSU-W
CSU-L
SOU-W
WSU-W
PSU-W
NAU-L
UM-L
MSU-W
EWU-L
UCD-W (We turn a new leaf in playing at Aggie Stadium and not Toomey)
UNC-W
ISU-W
8-4 overall, 5-3 BSC
But, we have traditionally done well at both NAU and EWU, which is where we are at this year for those games.

Definite wins -- Humboldt, Southern Oregon, UNC, ISU
Definite losses -- Colorado State, Montana
Probable wins -- Weber State, NAU
Probable losses -- EWU
Coin Tosses -- Portland State, Montana State, Manure Pile
Of the coin tosses, at the very least, Causeway had better be a win. That's the one game where an 11-1 year with THAT being the loss would be a disappointment, but a 1-11 year would be successful if THAT is the win.

Kadeezy, other than last year, all of the times that we have come close to beating them have been up there...primarily due to the atmosphere: 1999, 2000, 2002 (all games we let slip out of our hands...a nod to Ricky Ray...doh!).
Montana is not the same Montana this year. Ithink EWU will win the crown...though its a tough order with a new, but familiar face as head coach.

Hey all,
Quit picking the winners and the losers. Just give us a finishing record prediction. We are talented enough to win against every team on the schedule. Yes, we could upset Colorado State. They have holes in their lineup. I'm not saying we will be 12 and 0, that would be nice, I'm requesting you not pin a loss to a specific team. I know our coaching staff believes the Hornets could beat any team on the schedule.
Hornet Fever - Get Some!!!
