Initial reaction....10-2. I could see us going perfect, but I know that is ambitious... 8-4 would be a failure in my opinion. I'll come back to this in a few days with more collected thoughts.

Houston, has 14 players going out, and 19 coming in from the portal for 2025, highlighted by 4-star recruit and former starting QB at Texas A&M Conner Weigman



If we shut down Weigman, by transitive properties we are on par with Notre Dame.


True dat. LOL.

8-4 would match the best season out of the last 15. I think that's a fair mark to say is the expectation for this program.

I agree. 10-2 is what I'm expecting.

I think our matchup with UH is the most winnable matchup with an FBS school we've had in a while, just because of the amount of talent we have returning and UH needing to learn an entirely new system and having a lot of new pieces on both sides of the ball. But if we dropped that game, even if we lost by a lot, it wouldn't surprise me or worry me(unless we just looked entirely inept).

I also think we have a bad game somewhere in there and lose one we probably shouldn't. And that's okay if that happens. 11 games in a row is very hard to win, and every team has at least one head scratcher or game that's ravaged with injuries/bad calls. It can actually be a good thing depending when it happens, it can sober a team up when it matters most and gets them fired up. See Ohio State after losing to a bad Michigan team.

Unlike 2024 I think we have some "actual" depth at quarterback. That has me hopeful that we can take some lumps and still get to 8-4, 9-3.

10 wins would be epic. For some reason (maybe Lake Charles , LA last season) I've tempered my expectations.

Incredibly curious for how many fellow lumberjack faithful will be in Houston. UNT had a good showing so it's possible to see more.

Ready to go. I think the turnout will be good if we can get the alumni association to grab a HUGE block of tickets.
