2024 bowl projections thread

[Frozen]

Brett McMurphy has SU missing a bowl game this season. I strongly disagree. He has two ACC teams in the Sun Bowl, though, so what does he know?

I’d say it would be a massive disappointment for this upcoming year’s team with the talent we got and the schedule we have, if we miss a bowl. I know it would Fran’s first year but I would be SUPER concerned

Kyle McCord is a forgotten man already

All the preseason lists for top ten or even top 15 returning QBs don't even list him

 

[MSOrange]

I like to think I'm pretty realistic with my expectations (as in I don't drink the Kool Aid too fast) but I'm not even contemplating the idea we won't even make a bowl.

The 2023 team stunk and we made a bowl. We are making a bowl in 2024. Ohio, U Conn, Holy Cross, Stanford are anywhere between slam dunk and close to slam dunk. We will find 2 more wins at the very least

We not only make a bowl in 2024 - We Win it. Just Win Baby!

I think he knows some stuff.

He broke a story a day or two ago that said that for several reasons, teams that just left the P12 are expected to continue to fill P12 slots in bowl games until the current bowl affiliations expire in 2025.

I think we'll be playing in multiple bowl games and winning them all.

I am okay with losing the bowl game because half the roster is going to the NFL.

 

[CanadianSU]

I am expecting 7-5/8-4 lower than what is expected here but if no bowl with this schedule… not good.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

I'll see mcmurphy in Hell.

 

[djorange1989]

McMurphy knows coaches birthdays. That’s it.

 

[sabach]

I normally like these things no matter how far in advance they are done but leaving us out of a bowl is just laziness. I doubt McMurphy even looked at our schedule.

 

[JKinUtah]

Let’s see what the final roster going into fall camp looks like before we start worrying about bowl projections.

 

[David321]

Missing a bowl? Lol yeah okay.

 

[Hoo's That]

I'd like to know his reasoning behind having UNC play Cal in the Sun Bowl. Is it just because they don't play in the regular season or did he mess up?

SUtomcat dealt with that above. Cal gets to fill a PAC10 ghost spot.

That Crawford guy at 247 who has been hating on us forever has us playing Memphis in the Fenway Bowl. If that guy has us bowling at all that means we are winning big this year

Like that national media still has modest expectations for the program (which is to be expected)

Easy motivation to surprise people this year

Athlon has us in the Military Bowl vs. East Carolina.

 

[orange79]

Athlon has us in the Military Bowl vs. East Carolina.

The Military Bowl is now a CFP bowl?

Huh.

 

[qdawgg]

These people are morons. I don’t usually crap on national writers or recruiting rankings. But in this case, some of the season predictions make no sense. Worse than last year or about the same with the massive talent upgrade. Uh….. ok.

And an easier schedule, seemingly

If Shrader could have thrown at all we beat BC and GT and win 8 games last year

Yup, and Dino would still be here and we'd be convinced that we were on the right track!
Funny how a couple of breaks could have changed the narrative.
But, knowing what we have now, maybe it's okay that things worked out like they did.
