My take on next year's schedule.

Toughest games from toughest to easiest:
TAMU: best collection of talent
FSU: second best collection of talent. New OC. They will be better.
Uof SC: third best collection of talent. Though they won't surprise us with weird sets this time, and the lose Bebo. They will also be better than last year.
NCSU will be solid but not dangerous without Finley.
BC will be solid with new OC that will maximize AJ Dillon.
Syracuse will be well coached but less dangerous without Dungey.
Wake will be improved with a QB that is more experienced, but not sixty points better.
GT: a lot of unknowns and it will take time for Key to get his system installed. Opening at night at the defending NC is a tough way to start.
Wofford is always hard to prepare for and well coached.
UNC will be more disciplined and have a more defined offensive identity under Mac but the talent gap will be too great.
Louisville will better because they can't be worse.
Charlotte: really?

A&M being so early on the schedule

with us rebuilding the d. line is the biggest threat. How much of a threat is yet to be seen.

Last year was the prefect storm for them...

The had an entirely new coaching staff, the whole summer to prepare and the game was in College Station, while we had absolutely zero film on them to study. That was HUGE advantage for A&M.
Once their opponents had some game film to study, A&M didn't pose quite the same challenge.
While I agree A&M will be the toughest opponent, they won't enter the game with all the the advantages they had going for them last season.

Think you got uofsc too high. They should be in the middling.

With only two games outside the Carolinas

We should "wake forest" several road games next year to make Clemson the home team. It was great to watch the Wake team ask for silence at their own stadium. Fun to watch Clawson pitch a fit about Tiger Band on the road. UNCheat should be a great time to outnumber the heels at Chapel Hill.

UNC will be a tougher game than Wofford and Ga Tech. They could possibly be tougher than Wake as well. They were horribly coached this year and will be much improved next season.
I don't expect them to threaten us in our game but compared to our other opponents I expect improvement.
NCSU losing Finley, Harmon and multiple offensive coaches could very easily put them behind BC and Cuse.
I am not under the impression that Dungey was a superstar talent, so I do not think they will fall off greatly next season. Replacing their veteran LBs may be more important than Dungey.
Wofford and Charlotte are at the bottom of the list by a long ways. Wofford may be tough to prepare for but they weren't great even at the FCS level last year.

Starting TE, RB, C, all declared early. At least 6 starters on the defense gone.

I think UNC will be tougher than you think. They have a new

QB recruit and a new system, so I think they will be tougher than GaTech.
