Bowling Green: 2009 Projections

Alright, it's Friday, which means two things. 1) It's Front Page Friday, and 2) It's time for some projections! As with last week, I used my rough, to-be-tweaked-another-thousand-times projections system to figure out BGSU's likely record this year. Judging by what you've read this week--BGSU Links, Offensive Preview, Defensive Preview, Better Know an Opponent--what do you think?

Date	Opponent	Proj. W/L	Margin	Record	Conf. Rec.
9/3	Troy	L	-1.0	0-1
9/12	at Missouri	L	-19.2	0-2
9/19	at Marshall	L	-7.7	0-3
9/26	Boise State	L	-15.1	0-4
10/3	Ohio	W	+8.4	1-4	1-0
10/10	at Kent State	W	+1.3	2-4	2-0
10/17	at Ball State	L	-1.4	2-5	2-1
10/24	Central Michigan	W	+1.3	3-5	3-1
11/3	at Buffalo	W	+1.8	4-5	4-1
11/12	at Miami-OH	W	+2.0	5-5	5-1
11/20	Akron	W	+7.2	6-5	6-1
11/27	Toledo	L	-1.0	6-6	6-2

The 6-2 record wins their division, and they lose by 2.7 to Central Michigan in the MAC title game.

Thoughts? From what you've read this week, would you expect more from them (like wins over Troy, Ball State, and/or Toledo) or less (like losses to Central Michigan, Buffalo, Miami-OH)?

So...6-6 sound about right?

Nope, they sound terrible. 4-8 at best.

Yep, sounds like a .500ish team to me.

Judging from BGs past...

I’d say they go 7-5. they seem to have a knack for winning at least one big out of conference game per season (troy or marshall this season for sure) and toledo has been terrible for several years, what with their legal issues, but they will probably lose to one of the other MAC schools.
