First and foremost, we have this thread each year to honor our fallen friend and board contributor Calicuse, who passed away on October 7, 2016. Rest in peace Cali.

—————————————————

Like Mikel Jones, the Cali Awards are back baby.

2021/2022 was another brutal year.

Lost to Rutgers by 10
Lost to Florida State by 3
Lost to Wake by 3
Lost to Clemson by 3

Soldiered up for 2 encouraging wins vs BC and VTech, where the fanbase thought perhaps we’d turn the corner. But then came the fatigue, and with that the late season owwies. Just like that the train went off the tracks and we missed the postseason again.

We all knew what happened in 2021 so I wont get into it more. All’s I’ll say further is look at the 2017 season’s scored then look at 2021.

Looks oddly similar doesnt it. Even substituting cigar boy for shady fits well enough.

In 2022, like 2018, we return a warrior of a QB and a veteran laden team. I actually like our defense more this year than 2018’s, though Chris Slayton certainly isn’t coming out of the tunnel for us this year.

2018 had heisman campaign dreamer Eric Dungey. 2022 has Heisman should-be Sean Tucker.

But, 2018 also had a weakened ACC where 2022 has 5 ranked teams on the schedule. 5. That is brutal.

How do you think this team will do?

Ridiculous

Not really. We have a difficult schedule and are generally a 4-8 team under Dino. I think Tucker will take a step back as teams key on him more, and I worry about the QB position. If Schrader goes down, which he will for some portion of the year, there is not a lot of experience to back him up. Add in the new offensive coaches and system, I expect growing pains. We beat UConn and Wagner, and one other.

I expect anywhere between 3-9 and 5-7 and went on the low end of the range because I'm scarred from following this team since the early 80s and seeing how we perform post-Pasqualoni.

The more ridiculous predictions are the 8 wins out of this schedule. Of course, I'd love too see that happen.

I'll defer to you since you're running this whole thing. Would you prefer we keep this thread to predictions only rather than commenting on others predictions? Seems like that would make it easier to sort through at the end, but I'm not coordinating this :)
