Have your season expectations changed with the 0-2 start?

No, still think 6 or 7 wins is possible, I said to myself at the end of the CPR era I would never be disappointed in making a bowl no matter what, now I have been kind of bummed with our bowl opponents but still excited when we make them...Also I believe according to Sagrin we have played the first and third hardest games on our schedule.
Yes, I really thought we'd start 2-1 and that SDSU game cost us a win against Iowa. I was at 8-9 wins and I think 7 or 8 is more likely now.
Of course things changed with that ugly Iowa loss. That was a terrible loss.
I had us at 8 regular season wins, including a W over Iowa. Since we've lost that game and didn't make it up vs. OU, I'm back down to 7 regular season wins. I still think we're a good team that will continue improving.
2-2 over the next four games to get to 2-4 overall, then finish 5-1 to end up at 7-5 overall. I think it's more likely that we finish 6-6 than 8-4 though.

ISU just went toe to toe with a team that might be in the national championship game and some of you guys are worried about KU and Baylor???? Might as well sell your season tickets and become Bama fans.
I expect 7 wins yet and then a bowl win. This team will improve a lot in the next two weeks.

We are 0-2 now, obviously.
I would say our win percentages here on out are roughly...
90% = Akron
20% = TCU
15% = Oklahoma State
45% = West Virginia
60% = Texas Tech
70% = Kansas
75% = Baylor
35% = Texas
80% = Kansas State
100% = Incarnate Word
5.9 wins
6.1 loses
Absolute win = Akron and Incarnate Word
Likely wins = Texas Tech, Kansas, Baylor, Kansas State
Likely losses = TCU, Oklahoma State, West Virginia, Texas
Probably screw up one likely win and pull one upset.
6-6

Yes, as I had us having equal prep for the Iowa game and thus a win. That was very disappointing loss but given the circumstance not discouraging.
We’re one game behind until we knock of TCU, Ok St, or WVU.

Goals are all in reach. The performance of the team the last couple of weeks hasn't dampened my expectations. First game the offense and special teams struggled and bounced back VS OU. The second game the defense stumbled so I expect all facets to click VS Akron to get ready for the TCU game. Depending how we perform against TCU this game can spring board us into a really good second half of the season.
Nope, and after yesterday I think it’s clear we have a good team. We played bad week one against Iowa but made huge strides this week. I see 7-5.
I fully expected a win again the TOE as well. I had us beating Baylor instead of WV.
Baylor has some nice pieces on offense, but their defense is hot garbage. Gave up 225 yds rushing to Duke yesterday and 220 yds rushing to Abilene Christian in the season opener. If DM does not have 200 yards by himself against them, I’ll be disappointed.
I had 7-5. Will say 6-6 now, but 7-8 wins certainly attainable. Feel much better now than after Iowa.
I had things at 7-8 with outside chance of 9 (a major upset along the way). Now we will have to work hard to get 6.
They were tempered after the Iowa loss then encouraged after the performance yesterday.
I had us at 8-4 and the Iowa loss pegging is down to 7-5.
