We go 11-1 at the worst....

We may not have as potent of an offense next year, but with BV and what I think will be an improved D next year, teams won't put up many points on us.
fs-who is the question mark. I know we can beat them, but that is by far our toughest game again next year.

Hope you are right but with an unproven QB, I think that is a little too positive. I say 9-3. Hope I'm wrong.

I expect a BCS bowl at worst. Louisville is dangerous

because they still have Lamar Jackson and even though the rest of their team is average at best they tend to have a game where they play out of their minds (FSU last year). We will be a very good team next year but with a very young offense and a target on our back even bigger than the one we had on us this year it will be hard to repeat this season and it shouldn't be expected. It's definitely possible but it will be very hard to do.

8-4 at worst. 11-1 is the best I think we'll do.***

4 losses at the worst? Who do you think we'll lose to?

There are 3 truly "tough" games. Awbarn, loserville, and fs-who.
And there is no way in haites we lose all 3 of those.

Did you think we would lose to Pitt this year?

Did you think NCST would have us beat if they could make a chip shot FG?
There are always surprises. With the heavy turnover this year a couple of those close games may not go our way.

Schedule sets up very well if we get by Auburn and UL.

FSU at the end of the season is perfect. QB will be well settled by then and the defense will have broken in depth where we currently lack some (mostly S). Plus it's at home.

FSwhos qb will be suffering from ptsd after this season. He took a truckload of shots over the season.

and if their OL doesn't improve we will kill their QB.

I'm leaning toward 10-2. Only because auburn and Louisville is early in the yr. With a new Q and a possible loss to Fsu. No way we do worse then 10-2

Honestly FSU doesn't scare me much especially since our QB will hopefully have his legs under him by that game. They lose Cook and their best offensive lineman on an already very week line, going up against potentially the best dline we have ever had. Francois is a good QB but he's going to be in a tough environment with 1100 lbs of future NFL starters in the backfield all game.

Crazy, nobody knows what will happen on offense

If we go 11-1 we'll actually go 13-2 or 14-1.
I think we lose 2 regular season to Auburn and FSU. We we beat AU and Louisville and FSU beats Bama look for 2 ACC teams in the playoffs.
I think there will be a lot of eyeballs on the Kent state game

This is WAY EARLY, but I agree!

Cook is the ONLY reason we struggled vs FSU and our D is still going to be solid; also will be the key vs Auburn, Louisville (and VT in Blacksburg).
I think (ONCE AGAIN) the 'experts' are underestimating our Tigers - coaches and players - and yours truly is already planning road trips to Louisville, Blacksburg, Raleigh AND Columbia!
GO TIGERS!!!!!
