SU Football Season Predictions

[Trueblue25]

9-3 and ranked after we upset LSU in the dome.


We worship HCSS like Caesar returning from Gaul.

 

[CuseOnly]

Realistically I think we get to 7-6.

I think 4-8 to 8-5 is the range for us. It's July and I'm an optimist, so I'll run with the 8-5.

Posted this in a different thread but nevertheless, here's my breakdown of it:

Being an optimist I'm looking at the schedule this year and really think we could/should start the season 3-0. Going into the LSU game we should have confidence if undefeated and I see it being competitive. I don't see us winning but as long as we don't get embarrassed I feel good about it.

@USF in week 6 is huge. Coming off a bye week and it's a very winnable game. A coin flip game that I say the Orange prevail in.

@UVA is another winnable game. They're predicted preseason last in the Coastal. I'll say coin flip game again with advantage to Virginia at home.

vs Pitt. We got killed by them last year, but are they really that much better than us? At the Dome I see no reason why we can't win this game.

@FSU sucks for us but some good news about this. They have a stretch of games of: vs Miami, vs Louisville, @ Georgia Tech, vs Syracuse, @ Clemson the following week. I smell trap game for a team that isn't the National Title contender they've been the previous years.

@Louisville I feel good about. I currently live in Louisville (and despise Louisville athletics). Listening to terrible sports talk on my way home from work they've mentioned on more than one occasion about getting revenge on UVA who upset them last year. They play UVA the week after they play us. Let's hope they no show and are looking ahead to the following week. Wouldn't mind repeating 2012 and hanging 45 on them again.

vs Clemson I have nothing good to say. I just hope to be 6-3 or 5-4 heading into this game.

@NC State doesn't scare me. They'll be the favorite but have archrival UNC on deck the following week and we can hang with them.

vs BC is another middle of the road ACC team. At home in the season finale, I like our odds.

As an optimist I wouldn't be shocked if we have a hell of a year and go 8-4 or 7-5.

As a lifelong Syracuse fan I wouldn't be shocked if we go 2-10 or 3-9.

Go Orange!

Anything short of a bowl game, and the new AD will decide to "rip the band-aid off" and retool.

4-8 with wholesale coaching staff changes at season's end

I think we start off hot, going into LSU 3-0 or 2-1. But after the LSU loss, we get stunned by USF which leads to a downward slide that follows us to the end of the season.

 

[orange_in_VA]

We'll be 9-4 after our bowl win.

 

[CUSU]

6-6 seems very realistic to me. Have to start out well and win the first 3. (PS its going to be right because this is my 1000th post..)


Win:

RI, CMU, SF, Wake

Lose:

LSU, Clemson, FSU, Louisville

Split 2/4:

UVA, BC, Pitt, NC St.

Go to a bowl and win.

 

[orange_in_VA]

I think we'll be 6-1 going into that tough 3-game stretch of FSU, Ville, Clemson. I'm not convinced we can't beat Ville either. We'll see how it all plays out, but I just have a feeling that the offense is going to be much better this year.

 

[Hoo's That]

@UVA is another winnable game. They're predicted preseason last in the Coastal. I'll say coin flip game again with advantage to Virginia at home.

Very accurate. The game will be decided by who is able to take the greatest advantage of the breaks they get.

 

[Eric15]

I think we'll be 6-1

That would be our best start to a season since 1994.

 

[bcubs9497]

Realistically I think we get to 7-6.

That's what I'm thinking. A few things go our way, and we could pick up an extra win.

 

[orange_in_VA]

That would be our best start to a season since 1994.

Well then get ready to party like its 1994!

 

[Orangello]

I'm going with 5-7. I think the offense will improve but not to the level necessary to go bowling. I also think we take a step back on D with lack of depth on the DL and lack of experience in the secondary.

 

[Doc5120]

I see 6-6 with wins coming against RI, CMU, Wake, USF, UVA, BC. And I'll go with a bowl victory to get us to 7-6 and send T. Hunt out on a high note.
