Conference championship: Clemson def. Miami

I guess its better to be underrated than overrated but while I don't expect 9-10 wins this year I can't see us finishing 4-8 unless either Allen or Hunt can't play QB. These predictions atleast are better than the ESPN magazine NFL ones which predicted the Dolphins would win the AFC East and Pats would finish 9-7 and the NY Giants would finish 8-8 and in 3rd place in the NFC East.

We should all be prepared for a 4-8 record as much as an 8-4 record. Too many unknowns with rookie OC, DC and HC. Not to mention, SU has to break in a new QB. We will be competitive for most games, though those games can go either way.

Teams are going to have a tough time scoring against us. Period.

NC St won't finish 4-4 in conference.
