I don't think they win five. Maybe they get three, Buffalo and CMU at home and either BG or Akron on the road.

You cant put lipstick on a pig. UMass is a bad team and that was a bad performance by us. We'll play much better this week.

To answer your question regarding making us look better. They only way they can do that is beating Vandy...and I don't think that will happen. Beating up any of the MAC teams, will just make the MAC look weak.

Ohio should just keeping putting up W's, the rest will fall into place. Every team has a game or two that are lot closer than they should, the difference is Champions end the game with a W, the others lose them.

I think they will win one, somewhere, but no, they won't make Ohio look good. That's Ohio's job, and they do that by continuing to win.

No MAC team can make us look better.  As Pat Forde mentioned in his column today, we have just one team left that's in the Sagarin top 100 (BSU at 90).  We won't play the other two MAC teams in the top 100 (NIU and Toledo) until Detroit.  UMass is at 183, and winning out probably won't get them near the top 100.  The only thing that would make us look better, beyond beating the daylights out of the remaining schedule, is for Penn St to keep winning.

I can see 5 wins at best.  But hey given their early schedule I think this is pretty good. 

I wish them the best...

Don't give up on Marshall either.  I think they are going to compete in C-USA.
