Of our remaining schedule. Who do you see

Us beating, if there’s no huge Epiphany on offense. Syracuse plays us hard every year. And everyone can score a lot of points. I can’t even contemplate us losing to USUCK. I’m just glad they lost so we don’t have the same record. But if we lose to Syracuse? I mean I hate losing to Syracuse. But what teams do we beat?
GO TIGERS!!!

We will finish 10-2 but Wake will win our division.

I guess that's possible, but not very likely....

If we finish 10-2...that means we beat Wake.
We each have 1 conference loss and we would get the tiebreaker over them.
I suppose if there's a 3 way tie and Clemson, Wake and NCSU each have 1 loss....but even then, I'm not sure that the tie would go to Wake.

It could be interesting the last week of the season. We might be rooting hard for Wake against BC if NC State's only loss is to Wake. A three way tie would cancel out the head to head's, so our fate could be tied to Wake's.

That's impossible. If we are 10-2 that means we beat Wake and have only 1 ACC loss. We would win the division unless NS State runs the ACC table.

Won’t we have the tie breaker to wake if we beat them ? Nc state will need to lose 2 for us to have a shot. But I think if we beat wake we are in over them IF we finish 10-2

With just moderate improvement I see the team running the table or losing just one random game in the mix.

I need some evidence to this logic…. I see no world where we win out.

I agree, I haven’t seen or heard anything that makes me think we even make a bowl.
As bad as that hurts me to say.

It all depends if the offense improves. It's one of the worst offenses in football despite being the third most talented. If it improves, I think 10-2 is still very doable. If it stays as it has been, the season could be brutal. So far, Clemson has been clearly dominated by UGA, clearly dominated SC State, and then played toss-up games against a bad Georgia Tech, a middling NC State, and a BC sans Jurkovec, coming out 2-1 in that mix.
Clemson is beating their opponents by a score of 21-12 (keep in mind that's because of SC State). I believe they are better than UConn and Louisville (32-28), despite Louisville having a far better offense. That brings us to 5-2. I think all others are toss-ups. I think we're slightly better than FSU and Syracuse, and slightly worse than Pitt and Wake. Unfortunately, South Carolina is almost identical to us statistically playing a very similar schedule. SC is slightly better in scoring offense, total offense, and total defense. Clemson is better in scoring defense by a wider margin than the others (SC is beating opponents 22-17, we're again winning 21-12).
Based on that, I would say a very unlikely worst case scenario is 5-7, if we lost all the tossups. A very unlikely, but still possible, best case scenario, is 10-2 (it does happen. In 2007, UGA got off to a very slow start, losing to the Gamecocks 16-12 and getting blown out by Tennessee 35-14, but won out and were likely the best team that year by the end). A realistic record based on what we've seen so far is 8-4.

I hope for the best, but I have zero confidence in DJ to run the offense. I don’t see him as a warrior. He’s all show and no go. I hope he proves me wrong. But I’ve seen nothing to think he will.

10-2 is possibly if the offense gets going. 6-6 or 7-5 would be worst case scenario. (Unless we have more major injuries)
I think we’ll finish 8-4 or 9-3.

Imo our defense wins half our games. Offense might win 1 extra. No chance we win out. They are going to stack the line and force DJ to beat them.

All of them, but a loss anywhere wouldn't shock me. I think we run the table though and at worst 1 more loss.
