11-2 is wildly optimistic unless or offensive line and receivers make a huge improvement.

The only two games where we should be huge underdogs are LSU and Wisconsin. All of the other games are very winnable. Utah, Boise St, and Mississippi St. could be classified as toss-ups, maybe give Mississippi St. an edge since it's an away game for us. At worst I would expect 8-5. But 11-2 is not out of the picture or totally unrealistic IMO.

he thinks at 11-2 we could make a NY6 bowl. I don't know about that. A rank of #15 would not be good enough.

Good chance we go 11-2. LSU and Wisconsin are pretty much losses. Utah is likely a loss, but there is a chance we win that one. We could drop BSU, but I'd say odds are we win that one. Other than those 4, the rest of the schedule are kinda gimmies. USU and SJSU might give us problems.

LSU and Wisconsin are likely losses. utah, BSU, and Miss State are all toss ups. Hawaii is not a gimme anymore especially with them on the islands. BYU always struggles with them out there even in the glory days. To go 11-2 we have to win all the toss up games which is what they predicted. I find that highly unlikely unless, like I said, our Offensive line and receivers make huge improvements this off season. Tanner has all the tools, but the guys around him need to block and catch for his tools to be maximized.
