SIAP: Way too early IU projection

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/2024-indiana-football-projections-win-total-over-under-sp-rankings-and-a-bowl-game/ar-BB1iigHC?ocid=windirect&cvid=6d41b3863cc54c05a8e751f254eecfff&ei=11

Basically, O/U is 5.5 games, right now -128 under is the favorite. But, Brett Murphy from Action Network has us over, going to Quick Lane Bowl vs Central Michigan. I know it's complete speculation, but fun to read (unlike 90% of the other topics on the board)

I'm not a betting man but if I did, I'd smash that over button!

From the article:
In ESPN's Bill Connelly SP+ rankings – which accounts for returning production, recent recruiting success, recent history, and is a predictive measure of the most sustainable and predictable aspects of football, not a résumé ranking – ranks Indiana 90th in the nation with a -8.3 SP+ rating. More specifically, Indiana has a 20.8 offensive SP+ rating (102nd), a 29.1 defensive SP+ rating (66th) and a special 0.1 special teams SP+ rating (63rd).

90. Indiana    -8.3    20.8 (102)    29.1 (66)    0.1 (63)

2023 Ranking
92. Indiana (3-9)    -7.4    19.6 (105)    27.2 (73)    0.3 (63)

IUFB's offense will be ranked in the top 50 or close to it this year. And if the defense can even stay at 66th or just the same as last year they're winning a lot of games. For example all one score games will fall in our favor more times than not. 

Why do you ask I'm saying top 50 offense? JMU. Here are last year's JMU's SP+ Rankings
20. JMU (11-2)    11.8    34.6 (19)    23.7 (43)    1.0 (40)

I can't repeat enough of how good this coach is. We're in for a treat folks.
