It all depends on UGA. Make or break game in my opinion.

UGA loses a lot on defense but will have a pretty strong, ball control offense. How we perform against them will be a strong indicator of how we will fare against FSU and SCAR.
My expectation, with the talent level we have on both sides of the ball, is to go undefeated and win the ACC.
If I had to predict today, I'd say that we lose to UGA and SCAR but win the ACC.

I think the Syracuse game..............

every year, especially away, will be tough. They always seem to have tough physical lines like BC used to have, which have been a problem for us. Until we get more physical, I see Syracuse as a challenge, not a given.

UGA game scares me the most...

because of their offense and the way our D played this year. I know we saw improvement vs. LSU, but we need to carry it through to this game or we're in big trouble. Aaron Murray is not Mettenberger: He is an NFL-caliber QB and he's got a two-headed monster behind him that is as good as any RB duo in the country. The most disappointing news for me this off-season was that Murray was coming back. I was excited about possibly getting a first-time starter for that game. Oh well...
I'm going to say 9-3 (6-2 ACC)... Losses to UGA, at Virginia (our ### loss), and the coots. We go to ACC title game thanks to win over FSU.

Very realistic outcome... However, Tajh Boyd is a senior now. Don't think he will let that Virginia game get away from him. In your prediction, Clemson would be (7-1) in the conference btw. I just can't see us losing to Georgia with the talent lost on defense. Carolina loses some people too but not as much.

7-1... I stand corrected...

And you're right about UGA's defense, but they're recruiting to the point that they just seem to reload. Now, with that said, it will still be the first game for some guys.

12-0 Regular Season

With USuCk losing a lot of players and UGA losing their entire D (basically) we'll be in good shape to win those games. Manuel is out at FSU. I think if we win the ACC Championship game, we will have a shot at the NC (Which I would predict to be a loss at this point).

We reduced our losses by half from 2011 to 2012.

If we do that again from 2012 to 2013, we go 11-1. 12-1 really, because of winning the ACCCG.
I'll go with that. 13-1. ACC and Orange Bowl champs.
