Austin Peay - Home - Win and win big.
Clemson - Away - Loss. We play them tough and they know they are in a fight. Clemson might win it all this year.
Southern Miss - Away - Win. This is a tough game but we have a break out run attack and win by 7.
New Mexico State - Home - Win. Although NMS is looking for payback, they are denied.
Idaho - Away - Win. - We are too fast for this team and we bomb them with air attack.
Georgia State - Home - Win. - Homecoming! We win it in front of a huge home crowd.
South Alabama - Away - Win. - I think it will rain during this game and we grind out a win.
U-MASS - Home - Win. - We send these guys home to cry in their clam chowder.
Appalachian State - Win - If this was on the road it would be tough but we have momentum and so we win by 14.
Arkansas State - Home - Win - This is senior day and nobody wants to lose in front of their Momma. Score to impress bowls.
Texas State - Away - Win - SBC is in sight there are rumors of being ranked and so we give it a go.
Georgia Southern - Away - Win. - This is for all the marbles. We are ranked in the top 25 and we are about to win the belt!

Somewhere between 6-6 and 8-4 is my guess.

Well, except for Clemson ... we should match up with all the teams on our schedule! We may not be "all the way" there ... but I like our chances against any/all of them. Yes, Ark St and Ga South have been good ... beating GS in Statesboro would be an upset. But I think we can win all of them. We played App St toe to toe ... no reason we can't take them at our place!! As far as Clemson ... it would take many things tipping in our favor ... maybe the really spank Auburn and overlook us (even more than I'm sure they already are)? Maybe it's raining and they have lots of turnovers, maybe that QB has a head cold/stomach ache/ingrown toenail and they hold him! I'm just reminded of what the APP ST qb said after beating Mich ... something like, "yeah, they have a really big school and stadium ... but it's Football, we've been playing all our lives!" Let's shock the world and get us a BCS bid!! I never played in a game I didn't EXPECT to Win!! Didn't win them all .. but winning starts as a state of mind!! First things first ... we better not overlook Austin Peay ... go take care of game #1. Ok ... i'm fired up for the season! Go Trojans!

Let's face it...optimism is always just a reflection of hope...as the good book says "affliction produces endurance and endurance produces character and character produces HOPE. I truly doubt our Father cares too much about football but the statement can be said for those fans like us....the past years have been rough and has produced a certain degree of loyal fan and no matter what we hang in there and we see character being rebuilt in the team as most of us can clearly see ...well guess what that does produce HOPE....I am just blessed that I can go to games ,see my friends and cheer and think that 12 and 0 or 11 and one are possible....so I say here is to a return to bowling and a great season ahead...see some of you tomorrow at the wiener grill....GO TROJANS!!

This prediction is like a Rowell defense, full of holes and cheesy.

Speaking of the "R," he'll be making his return to the FBS ranks this season... gseagles.com/staff.aspx?staff=292GS will be an even bigger challenge, at the end of the season. If, for no other reason but familiarity...Go Trojans!

Anything 7-5 or better and I'm good. The only prediction I'll make is this year the non-winning season streak ends.

I'm always optimistic going into the season. Why not TROY? Troy has the ability to go 11-1 this season if they can all stay healthy.

I'm very optimistic about this season, but I am getting a little concerned with all the receiver injuries.

7 - 5; 8 - 4 = a good season
9 - 3 = a great season
9 - 3 to 12 - 0 + a conference championship = dream season
I do think we go bowling! Go Trojans!

After watching the scrimmage on Saturday, I have to say that TMTDM looks to be back, our Defense really does appear to be strong and I am hopeful that the offense can get in a rhythm early in the season and put some points on the board.
No predictions from me but I do feel we should stack up well against the competition and get our share of wins and a bowl invitation....
Go TROY!

We find out how good we are when we play Southern Miss - the QB has broken Favre records - they are pretty good! We win that and every game after is winnable - something we could not say in the past 3 to 4 years. I'm optimistic we will be much better this year.

Realistically...I think 8-4 would be a great year (Clemson, G. Southern, App. State, and USM)

While I'll agree so Miss has a talented QB, Troy does as well. Also, there will be far more at that position the week prior. There's no doubt the secondary will be challenged early and often, but I'm ready to see what's going to happen!
