How will we do this season?

This is first year I really don't know how we will do. Yes, we are picked 8th in media polls and 9th in coaches poll so we are gonna be challenged. Any chance we can have a winning season? Do we have a descent offense and a questionable defense? Spring ball it was hard for me to tell who we are. Fall ball upon us so do we have some secret weapons that are gonna show up and did we pick up some studs? Don't remember how we were predicted to finish last year. Just feels like we haven't been picked to finish this low that I can remember.

There is an ELO rating predicting 5 wins.


I think 3-4 wins.

Incarnate Word - 100% loss

Boise State - Embarrassing loss

Northern Iowa - Possible win

Western Illinois - 60% chance of winning? They had the same W/L record as EWU but in a worse conference

Montana State - Loss obviously

Portland State - 50/50 they were 3-8 last season, 3-5 in conference like us

Weber State - 50/50, 4-8 last year, 3-5 in conference

Sac State - 50/50, 3-9 last year and 1-7 in conference

Montana - in Missoula, embarrassing loss

Northern Colorado - win

Cal Poly - win

So 2 wins, 5 toss ups and rest losses and 6 losses. So winning half the toss ups puts us at 4.5 total wins so 4-5 wins. Its actually better than I thought. But yea no way there will be a winning season.

I would be hopeful going into this season if the offense improves some but there is every indication it won't and will be in my mind significantly worse. New OC with ZERO experience, lost our throwing QB, lost most of our Oline, lost our all conference receiver, lost our backup QB and kick returner. There is every indication that Best will go to a more pro style offense like he has been trying to do. They only reason we stayed in games last year is because the OC opened up the play book and threw downfield more. No improvements on defense.
