Message: [QUOTE="K Otto XLIV, post: 1484533"] I don't think anything has changed for my predictions. I thought we would go 6-6 and expected to win the first 3. Wake & CMU were a little closer than I thought they would be. Dungey is a stud which I wouldn't have expected. Going forward: LSU - still think this is a loss. I actually think we will do worse than I originally thought. Not because of our play but because they looked great. USF - still think we should win this. I don't think they are any good. And we have 2 weeks to prep. The only issue is that it is our 1st road game. Although they don't have any home crowd. UVA - this is a coin toss game but I give SU a slight advantage. UVA has talent but they find ways to lose. Our mindset should be high at 4-1 while they could very well be 1-4 going into the game. Pitt - not sure what to think about them yet. They were my dark horse for winning the Coastal. They lost their RB and maybe their QB (not sure what his situation is). We will know a lot more in the next few games. Definitely a toss up game but for now I think slightest of advantages to Pitt. FSU - this should be a loss. We haven't played them all that well the last 2 years. They are worse this year for sure. But going onto the road, I just don't see it. The biggest advantage for us is that we are sandwiched in between GA Tech & Clemson for FSU. Louisville - I think our chances of winning have definitely increased. Their O is awful which is a surprise given Petrino. It is an expected L but is closer to a toss up than before. Clemson - they haven't looked great thus far but they are still better than us. I like that we play them right after their FSU game. I wish we had some momentum going in. NC St - I thought before the season and still think that we are better than them. They will start off 4-0 again because of their criminal OOC schedule. Then they will end up 6-6 because they simply are not good. It is a road game though. And we could be coming in on a losing streak. So the advantage will be in their favor. BC - they are awful on O. We are home. We really should beat them. Again the concern is that we could be coming in on a losing streak. However so could they. BC might be 3-8 at that point. I still think LSU, FSU, and Clemson are expected Ls. I still think USF is an expected W. The other 5 games are various forms of toss ups with 2 home and 3 away. We should be able to get 2 Ws from those games. Expecting more at this point is asking too much. If we get less it will be a big disappointment. [/QUOTE]
