fewer than 9 wins — allowing for a loss to UW and one of either utah or Boise St.
8 wins would be OK, but somewhat disappointing. 7 wins would still be better than I was expecting when the season began, but very disappointing at this point.
I say this recognizing that we’ll be underdogs is all 3 of those tough road games, and could easily lose all three. And that USU and Hawaii won’t be easy outs, and we could easily lose to one of them. And that UMass is still a very long road trip to play a team that beat us in Provo last year.
