Be bold!

Bold conference prediction: Miami blows out Cincinnati
Bold national prediction: A team somewhere will forfeit a game due to some social issue/NCAA protest

I'll go with you on the Purdue/Kansas predictions. I can't wait for that Kansas gameday.

On the social issues, boy, in a way I hope that doesn't happen, but sadly, based on recent events, it wouldn't be all that shocking.

I REALLY hope that Papi get's there. Because if he does, that also means we have a QB that's getting the job done pretty well.

Bold
Nathan Rourke starts at least five games.
Kaieem Cesar is MAC rookie of the year.
The new sound system works consistently.
I drink a beer purchased inside Peden.
I'm agitated on third down.

Everything looks good except #3. Consistently good I hope but the music coming out of it the last few years has been consistently bad.

At least 6 true freshman lose their redshirt status.

The tight end will be OUr secret weapon.

Monroe will be reinstated.

Two constants on Bobcat Attack: Complaints about basketball scheduling, and the music over the PA system in OUr sports facilities. As consistent as the sun rising and setting in the sky.

And the need to expand the stadium and the lack of a football championship. Yep, just a regular Groundhog Day.

Ohio runs the table in September going 5-0. Eastern is the only tough game. Also the halftime show at the Purdue game will be the greatest ever seen. (I am assuming the 110 is making the trip).

Its called fustrations. The facities at least will be done in another 2 years and then we can bring in a staff that can recruit on the AAC level.

Kaieem Caesar should be a stud and I am glad to hear that on Marlin Brooks one part of the no fly zone is doing well.

Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach. Woody Hayes

1. I throw up in my mouth at least twice after reading that somebody has committed to the University of Ohio.

2. A.J. Ouelette leads the MAC in rushing.

3. Papi White catches 62 passes.

4. We beat Kansas and Purdue and neither game is a nail-biter.

5. During one home game, I spend at least $48 on Jackie O's drafts.

Good call! - Four constants it is then. The fifth, well that one just went by the wayside into reality: Selling beer!

I hope the number is higher, to be honest.

62 translates to 7 td's.

Bold player prediction: Chad Moore and Quentin Poling have a McGwire/Sosa-like chase to see who has the most tackles by season's end.

Bold team prediction: We lose to Miami, but still win the MAC East because Miami sucks.

Bold conference prediction: Eastern Michigan makes a serious threat for the West Division crown.

Bold national prediction: Four teams from the state of Florida finish in the Top 15.

your right, OU Country, both of those numbers are too low. I should have added that the $48 was only for Paw Paw Wheat (abv of 9.0%) and for the 2nd, I expect that a deep threat at WR will emerge that reduces Papi's receptions.

I'm expecting a big year this year.

That might be the boldest prediction in this thread. It's not bold to predict he WANTS to spend $48. The boldness is in predicting that they have sufficient supply to allow him to do so.
