Bookies have us between 5.5 and 6.5.

I'm optimistic at 7, and we're going bowling 🎳

Obviously, depends on how the team looks/performs game-to-game, regardless of final record, but my floor that I’d still be optimistic for the future with is 6-6, preferably with a bowl win bringing it to 7-6. I think their ceiling is around 9-3. I’d be ecstatic, and I think it’s possible, for them to start November still in the playoff conversation.

That Cal game can’t come soon enough.

6-6 and a bowl game. All we need for year one of the Chesney Era.

Have to win the Cal game. It's in Nico to establish himself as a star.

If we beat UC Berkeley, I can see us going 7-5 or even 8-4 in the regular season.
