If Oronde was healthy I would say at minimum 1 win and an outside shot at 2. With he and Jones out this feels like a stretch where SU will go 0-3 but that really wouldn't be surprising or or crush the season. SU's season hinges on the 5 games after FSU, win at least 3 and the season is very much a success.

Issue with this 3 game stretch is no Oronde, an offense that is likely to struggle in 2 of the 3 and Clemson is the 1st game. SU has come out banged up from the Clemson every single year we have played them, even the year we upset them. Multiple injuries on Saturday is a major major concern, hope we come out healthy. The main concern for me is that Clemson defensively will be able to lock us down like they did in the 2nd half of last years game and we don't have the weapons through the air to overcome it if Orondo and Jones were available.

I think UNC is a better match up but again offensively I worry if we can keep up with Maye. That feels like a game if it were at home with Oronde SU would have a really good shot.

FSU to me is a throw out game. It's a god awful matchup and I'd take even a remotely close game. To me the key game is Va Tech, win that get to 5 or hopefully six wins if we can steal one of the next three and get yourself bowl eligible.
