Math question on remaining games

Recommended Posts

So how many games do we have to win and which ones to we have to beat to earn a spot in the championship game against sack?

I think if we are able to get to that rematch in SA it could be like having two bowl games as the atmosphere there will be off the charts. I realize I am putting the cart before the horse but I would love to see Dr. Smatresk commission some trips and strident busses and whatnot to make this a huge event right before the holidays.

Yeah I tried doing some hypothetical math yesterday. 
 

If we win any 2 games that puts us at 6-2. Most scenarios we would get in at 6-2. UAB can’t catch us then, best they can do is 5-3.
 

If we beat FIU & UAB then lost to rice & Rice ran the table then we would be out.

Rice still has to play UTEP, WKU, and UTSA before they get to us.

FIU has FAU, UTEP, and MTSU all after us.

UAB has UTSA, us, then LSU (OOC) and LaTech.

Unless we completely crap the bed I like our chances.

Yep. I think it’s safe to start booking hotel rooms for 12/2.

FIU is improved but they are still a few bricks short of a load.  UAB, so far, hasn't been the same under Coach Clark.  It looks safe to say that they are not going to recover this year.  Rice has also improved but again they had a lot of ground to cover and we catch them at home.  

I'm not counting my chicks before they're hatched but it looks like we have a  pretty clear path to the championship game if we can keep our momentum.  IF we win the championship and the bowl game (Shark Davis stayed for that) that would give us 10 wins and it would look silly to fire the coach.

I am kinda half kidding here, but maybe we should bring back this kind of trend we see below but with a twist. This time, the administration starts it. If we get so many students to sign up to attend the game in San Antonio, no finals!!
