There is a seven way tie for the lead with 5 right between Valley Cat, OU Country, LC, OCF, ou1982, tiawan BC, and C. Money. Almost everyone else has 4 right. Trailing so far are ohio9704, andrew ruck, alan swank, and Recovering Journalist with 3 right, followed by ohio69 and fake monroe with 2 right. Since everyone picked an Ohio win over EMU, nothing will change this week, but the following week, a Kent win would put C. Money in sole possession of first. “We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.” ― Epictetus Back to Top Monroe Slavin General User Member Since: 12/20/2004 Location: Oxnard, CA Post Count: 9,121 Status: Offline     RE: 2016 Game Prediction Thread    Posted: 10/16/2016 12:36:31 AM  No one...no one...foresee'd a loss to EMU. Does that make this a bad loss? Does that give some indication 12 years in? Maybe add in Texas State and no win over a team that has an FBS win this year. 12 years in with not a single season of less than four lossess...and nine with over four losses. OCF, your 13-1 and L.C. your 12-2 --you might want to re-assess. Last Edited: 10/16/2016 12:38:31 AM by Monroe Slavin Where's the band?! WHERE"S THE BAND?!

I had quite forgotten about my predictions. My only question is where does Monroe fall now in terms of his preseason predictions. For some reason, I can't seem to recall what our only Certified Pigskin Analyst opined in the prediction department. Please refresh my mind.

Not sure that follows. You, of course, savvy that here's the heart of my prediction: Mediocre, ultra-conservative coaching which can't win a MAC title. Not good enough at qb and running the qb too likely to lead to qb injury which diminishes team's ability to hit its potential. Where's the band?! WHERE"S THE BAND?!

It's not that you don't have some valid points, but your points virtually never support your conclusions and you continually dismiss any data which doesn't bolster your current mantra. Remember when last year you repeated time and again how we hadn't beaten a MAC team with a winning record? Then we beat Akron and NIU, and you pivoted like a political candidate to the number of "crushing defeats" we had suffered to MAC leaders over the last three years. At the same time that you pivoted, you ignored various stats that indicated that the team was improving. You have an agenda-driven approach to posting on the football forum. And, you agenda is clear. Therefore, sane folks will not have too much trouble picking out your few valuable insights from your polemic-laden discourse.

If their full season prognostications are correct(as well as Taiwan BC) we will all be very happy campers.

Therefore, sane folks will not have too much trouble picking out your few valuable insights from your polemic-laden discourse. What universe are you living in? Apparently, the one that disregards about four years filled with mostly wins over cupcakes, innumerable crashing defeats to peer teams, 11 years with no MACC, etc, etc, etc--but offsets it all win one nice win. I have one agenda: a MACC. I do critique specifics within that agenda, I do point out the things that we do that won't get us there (thousands of posts because so much here) and the things that we should do to get us there (again, many--most recently, throw a lot to Smith and Reid). You let your anger cloud reasonable reality too often my friend. Blocking my pm's and email to you was rather childish in my view. I never cut off discussion with my friends no matter how vigorous the discussion. I recognize that friendship is not diminished by frank discussion. I recognize that friendship survives even if each side thinks the other's sports or political opinions are whacko. Yes, at times it takes a sense of humor to shrug off the other side's so-wrong point of view. So, I have a sense of humor. You? Where's the band?! WHERE"S THE BAND?!

Hey, I was thinking the Cubs would win the NL pennant practically every season since the mid 1950s. The moral of that story is if you're an optimist and you wait long enough, your rosy predictions may eventually come true.
