Awfully early and very little roster info to go on for a publication to be hanging anything on a prediction. Just space filler for their website I guess.

Based on mathematical formulas derived from statistical information so it’s not like it’s just guessing based on nothing as you suggest. I believe they were 100% accurate or very close to it on WVU win totals last two seasons.

ESPN’s stats, polls and experts all said that WVU would get stomped on by powerhouse “playing the best football in the country “ Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl, in addition to projected a beating to home standing Georgia in the Sugar Bowl in Atlanta and had zero chance vs Clemson in the Orange Bowl.

Credible source that ESPN.

The statistics said Trump would get curb stomped by Hillary in 2016.

The FPI didn’t exist back then when WVU played Oklahoma prior to WVU being in the BIG 12. Nor when WVU played Georgia. Nor when WVU played Clemson. It was pure anti WVU, anti Big East bias at that time. Now the predictions are based on Browns teams and performance to date and what he as coming into this season as well as the same for the opponents. They predict WVU between 4.3-7.7 wins this season which seams very generous for a coach with one ”winning” season, and three of four seasons with only five wins in the regular season.

The statistics didn’t know the level of Russian interference in play for your god nor that a corrupt James Comey would violate longstanding processes and put out a fake news story about Clinton a week or so before the election to alter the outcome.

What did the FPI predict Oklahoma's and Texas's record would be before the season started last year? What was it for TCU?

Don’t know, look it up. Only concerned about WVU and they pretty much nailed it there. Nothing, if you read articles about the upcoming team and realize the coach will return, would indicate this year will be different than they predict. Where are the imaginary wins coming from? WVU has mostly good to great teams on the schedule and has minimal numbers of starters at key positions and a coach in the hot seat.

TCU wasn't even ranked to start the season last year and look where they ended up. I'm sure you knew that it just doesn't fit your trolling agenda.

Believe they said both would be 9-3 with Texas winning Big 12. TCU was predicted to go 7-5 as was OSU. Kansas was picked to finish 10th and TTU 8th. They had WVU predicted at 2-10 and finishing 9th. They failed with every pick. Just like Biden failing as a President.

Reading various preseason pubs, the FPI and gambling predictions the season will likely look something like this:

@ PSU--LOSS
Duquesne--WIN
PITT--toss up
TEXAS TECH--LOSS
@ TCU--LOSS
@ HOUSTON--LOSS
OK State--toss up
@UCF--LOSS
BYU--WIN
@OU--LOSS
CINCY--toss up
@Baylor--LOSS

So most likely looking at another 5 win season tops, but with a good possibility of losing more than 5.

You're a ******* genius. How would we have ever known. Thank God I don't have to watch the season now.

What does TCU have to do with WVU again? You keep leaving that out. They weren't ranked, but they had alot of talent on the team and a great coach.

WVU? Have NEVER been ranked under Brown after being ranked in something like 17 of the last 19 seasons. Terrible coach still, and very little returning production compared to the opponents.

Who do you think WVU is going to beat exactly? Put them down and we shall see who is closer to reality.

All you have ever done on this board is put down WVU. YOU ARE NO FAN.

Preseason rags are for entertainment purposes only. They throw out their "metrics", then lie about how accurate they were last year, and the ignorant who think a "metric" is akin to gospel fall for it and buy it. Then come on here and spout which ones support their personal agendas.

Generally, these are also the people who believe that a subjective ranking like a "star" is really an objective ranking because they failed or never took a statistics class.

Expect it will turn out pretty close to the prediction. No reason to think otherwise based on previous production as well as returning coach and starters/ experience.

Don't need a magazine to tell us that. Anyone who watches every week can tell you that for free on here.

If it happens, WVU will move on from Brown, and justifiably so. Some new blood will be injected into the program and hopefully things will change.

But, into today's college football landscape, a bowl game is about the best we can expect for WVU. We don't have the money nor name recognition to compete with the Bama's and Ohio State's of the world. Even if the stars aligned, like they did for our conference mate this year, the lack of overall talent and depth would appear just like it did for them.

If Brown gets us to a decent bowl, he stays. If not, he goes. It's nothing personal, its just business.

TCU is a perfect example of how accurate you so called fpi mathematical formula is. They were a team that wasn't ranked, and they didn't even receive any votes in the preseason poll, and they ended up playing for the championship. Tennessee is another example wasn't even in the top 25 the 1st week and turned out to be a top 10 team. You just posted this because it fits your anti wvu agenda.

Thanks for the laugh of the day. Hilarious.

Texas Am and Miami were supposed to be great last year according to the fpi and mathematical formulas how did that turn out? Im sure they didnt have Kansas starting 5-0 so that's at least six examples I have given you where this thing was wrong preseason. Everyone is waiting for you to leave and find a new message board to pollute. It will probably be pretty hard for you. You have pretty much been banned by most boards out there.

That’s the predicted record, not a range of wins

4.4-7.7 is a range of possible number of wins no matter how you try to spin it. By the percentages given of likelihood of wins, there are less than four.
1-12 is also a possible range of wins but that’s not what the 4.3-7.7 you referenced pertains to. It’s 4.3 wins- 7.7 losses

That team had grit. Does this team have that?
Hint: No

Better question. When was the last WVU team that showed any grit for even 3/4 of a season?
That answer is terrifying as a long time WVU fan whose teams most consistent trait was exactly that…..grit.

Wow. You drink that entire jug of Kool-Aid, don’t you sport?
Russians didn‘t vote for Trump snowflake….Americans did

Trump is a narcissistic *******, so what does that make Killery? I thank heaven she never held the Presidency for even one day. She would have made the Obama/Biden FUBAR administration (still ongoing) look good in comparison.

predictions are what they are. I have a coin that can land on tails more often than Brown can win a game. We have not been ranked in the top 25 in over 4 years.
Seems like the administration is fine with all that which is the worst part. I feel like we threw this upcoming year in the trash when we retained Brown.

Did you have 20 million?

He will be gone by years end. Unless a miracle happens.
