I actually did this exercise, but lost the post twice.
Going through game-by-game, I think 22 is pretty solid, and 24 is not unreasonable.

Wins: (20)
LeMoyne, Colgate, Youngstown State, Cornell, Albany, Georgetown, Albany, Maryland, Bucknell, Wake, Fla State, Ga Tech, @BC, Louisville, ND, Pitt, Stanford, Cal, BC, Texas Tech or St. Joe's

Toss-Ups:  (6)
Texas, @ND, @Miami, @Pitt, NC State, @Va Tech

Likely Losses: (5)
Tenn, [USER=3827]Clemson[/USER], Duke, UNC, UVa

Now, of course taking a cross country trip for Sat/Mon games against Stanford and Cal, well, people get tired and may not play their best.  On paper, neutral location, we beat both these teams, but back to back after a cross country trip, maybe they slip up.

There are always 2 or 3 (or more) games like that that just get away from you.  Hopefully not too many.

On the other hand, we get Duke, UNC and UVa all at home this year.  You would think we can pull one upset out of those 3 game, maybe even two.
