Bowl projections. Cuse in Independence Bowl

[HRE Otto IV]

My projected records of the teams left on our schedule when we play them:

BC 3-3 (0-3)
Clemson 7-1 (4-1)
NC State 5-4 (2-3)
FSU 8-2 (5-2)
Pitt 6-5 (3-4)

I think we beat BC and NC State. Losing those games would be disappointments. Been saying it all year. I don't think we come close to upsetting Clemson or FSU. Both of those would be huge surprises. Which means we should be 5-6 going into Pitt. That would be a huge game. An SU-Pitt game with meaning?

I do not know where the 5th win will be... NC State is tough and much better than the 5-4 record they are posting. Clemson is not as strong as their 7 wins but they also shouldn't have a hard time beating us. FSU? Pitt? I haven't seen enough of either to comment.

I'm not entirely convinced Pitt would lose to FSU.

I think FSU is a winnable game.

Tall order to find 3 more wins.

Clemson
FSU
Pitt
NC State
BC

Pitt is getting better and better. NC State could score 40+ or 17.

Pitt is getting better and better. NC State could score 40+ or 17.

True, except that Pitt's defense is still not very good.
