Talk Me Down

ridiculous comment not even close. Longs athleticism is light years better than Nunes and his arm strength appears superior as well. One of the dumbest posts I've ever read on here if you're refering to ability. Size wise maybe. this kid is more doug flutie than Troy Nunes.
Read much?
 
Away games will all be tough and neither NC State nor Duke at home will be pushovers, I see a max of 3 wins out of the remaining games, and that will require some good luck. I can not see us bowling this year, sorry to say, but god I hope I am wrong.
I doubt we only win three. We have the ability to win every one of our last games or to lose every one, but neither will happen. My guess is we will beat Wake and NCS and then have to win 2 more to go bowling.

Duke will be bowl eligible by the time they play us and might be looking past us to VT. Could be a real trap game for them.

Pitt could be 3-7 or 4-6 when they host us. They might also be pretty beat up. Still I expect a rock fight as usual. I think we will beat them.

BC - we might find ourselves in a game where both teams have 5 wins. It will be strength on strength for 60 minutes. If we have a passing game by then, we will prevail. If not, who knows?

On this one, as I stated in my post, I certainly hope you are correct, and I am wrong. I just have a hard time projecting more than three wins. Much of my more pessimistic feeling is due to having Clemson, Wake, BC, and Pitt as away games. I think we can beat NC State, but Duke although winnable will be a difficult contest.
It is absolutely critical that we beat Wake this Saturday or we stand little chance of doing what you suggest.

For what it is worth take a look at the Sagarin Ranking Post. Beating BA and Pitt away is certainly going to be an accomplishment, but after what we have been through, doable. Maryland certainly hurt us big time.

I will be at the Wake game so will try to do my part cheering them to a victory. I will also be at Clemson the next week, making a weeklong southern tour. I will do what little I can there also. Go Orange!
 
I think we win 2 more at most. Been a tough year with injuries and turmoil on the staff and a fairly tough schedule. We needed Maryland and/or Louisville to have any kind of momentum.

I know FSU isn't the best team in the country, but we look ok. Like ok enough to beat Wake and 3/4 of Pitt, Duke, BC and NC State. Or am I crazy?

Hope to see you at the tailgate!
 
Don't sleep on Duke - they're very good.

I would count that as a L

Unfort I think we're very hard pressed to get to 6 wins
 
I have this strange feeling we beat wake and clemson

I will be extremely happy to see that Bye come before we play Pitt and BC. It can't come soon enough.
