How Many Wins Does Coach Mac Need to be Safe in 2016?

23

A number of us who cover college programs were recently asked how many wins would be necessary for the head football coach to keep his job. For Coach Mac, I said three mainly because of the recent instability in the program and the experience coming back next year. Disagree? "Three to five would still be a huge disappointment when considering the Buffaloes' experience and schedule, but I think the school would still give him one more year for stability, knowing that there is a very small class leaving after this season. But there is a new AD since his hiring, so that could come into play."
