Well well well who knew that there was an afterlife for the FPI.

So last season we were 61st and went 6-6 but this season with an easier schedule on paper we only getting 5.8 Ws.

 

[upperdeck]

hey a 1% chance to make the playoffs.

 

[rocklloyd]

i'm ok being off the radar at this point. Let's notch some W's and recognition will happen

And if you look at Vegas odds to win the ACC we are ahead of
Duke
GT
Pitt
BC
Virg
Wake
Stan
and Even with Cal

If we win our OC games and 2 home ACC games we get to 6

Sept is Huge playing GT and Stan early at home to a good record.

This is truly stupid. Cincy is ahead of us, they were like 3-9 last year. Rutgers is way ahead of us and they still don’t have a QB. Pitt is ahead of us?! Mississippi State? Duke?? FPI can rot in hell, dammit!

This is bowl game performance blow back.

Which is more stupid! Rot in hell I say!

GT is big, if we beat them 4-0 is basically a slam dunk.

They are likely discounting Coach Fran having ANY ability to be a Head Coach because he's never been one nor a coordinator. This will juice him up even more. Go Orange!

Where is UCLA? They have a new, unproven head coach and I know that when he was introduced the narrative was much different than Fran.

30 spots ahead of us, 5 win projection.

 

[UpstateSM]

There is going to be some value on the boys if you're a betting man. Which, of course, I'm NOT.

That scrimmage game at the end of the season is impacting our FPI?


Just being sarcastic. Not directed at you.

This thing is just idiotic. We have the weakest strength of schedule of anyone in the conference and have completely overhauled the roster in the offseason with numerous major upgrades yet we’re pegged for effectively dead last in the conference. Some crack analysis there ESPN.

 

[David321]

Packer has stated in the past that no one at ESPN can (or will) explain to him how the FPI algorithm works.. and he works there.

 

[JRHEETER]

Let the chip be on this teams shoulders

It’s exactly what the doctor ordered

Yeah he absolutely hates FPI

Really like Packer

 

[qdawgg]

Just solely adding McCord with OG and LQA returning makes the ranking dumb as……

That doesn’t even count all the unicorn things we’ve done on top of adding McCord.

 

[upperdeck]

We played 1/3 of the schedule with no QBs and a broken Oline and still had chances to win 8 games last yr

 

[jr4750]

This also makes me mad. Not even on the list here, yet SMU in their first year is here.

I’m amped to see everyone is sleeping on us. We should be handing out pillows and blankets at ACC media day

These are the same people who said for years you couldn't recruit with the power teams at Syracuse.
They also don't look and see how fast Fran put this staff together.
They hit the ground running and turned the roster over in about 2 months.
They for the most part have been at big time programs, and seen what offenses and defenses work.
Fran knows by his statement, we will run the football, and stop the run.
That if you control the line of scrimmage, you will win a lot of games.
