Injuries decimated their dreams of competing for a Big 12 title a year ago, specifically the loss of QB Tyler Shough. Having one of the best running backs in the league (Tahj Brooks) helps, but this Red Raider team feels like it's in a bit of a rebuild. I wouldn't be surprised if they end up a couple of spots higher at season's end, but they're not moving above the middle of the pack.

Projected wins: Abilene Christian, North Texas, Arizona State, Baylor, Colorado
Projected losses: Washington State, Cincinnati, Arizona, TCU, Iowa State, Oklahoma State, West Virginia

Projected record: 5-7 (3-6)


If we end up 5-7 then the honeymoon if OVER. I don't see anything less than 7 wins on the low end. 8 wins should be the floor though.
