I know that the odds are long with all of the away games and Clemson but with the exception of the tigers we should be plus or minus a touchdown in every game which is basically a wash. I believe the key is going to be injuries. If we can stop losing anymore players and get a few back we really could make this run.

Of course we want all of our guys back but if we can only have a few each week my order of importance is

FOY
Crume
Bris
Morgan

We need both of our lines to be as strong as possible and another playmaker on O as well as major help in the DB department.

I like what happened on Saturday as it truly showed that the guys believe in HCSS and that they will play their butts off for this staff. We are due and it would be great to see a solid win one that was salted away with plenty of time on the clock. Wake is a must win lets hope that we keep the positive energy flowing and that we get a few of our key guys back. Go Orange! or White, Platinum...
 
Bring Crume back slowly, more reps for Raymon, and Williams, those 2 getting better week bye week, vital for season ending success.
 
Biggest loss so far is Miller. Let's hope he can get back. He's been great lately.

Playing center has to be the most underappreciated and misunderstood position in all of football.
Agreed i forgot about Miller
 
Broyld too. Although I agree with your order. Foy helps the most. I think Robinson is hurt.

I think we're okay with Palmer at RT for now, as long as he doesn't try sneaking in the end zone for any more TD's. My most important would be :
1) Miller, controls the OL at C
2) Morgan-thin at CB
3) Bris-Upgrades our explosiveness on Offense and Special teams
4) Crume -Best run stopper
 
Running the table would be awesome and not having to face watson in death valley helps tremendously.
 
Run the table with the injuries we have and 2 freshman QB's? We need realistic expectations else everybody becomes ledge jumpers. 6-6 would be a miracle at this point. Just because Clemson is without their new stud QB doesn't mean Cole Stoudt wouldn't be a 4 year starter here. They flat out have better athletes, a more experienced staff, and the comforts of Death Valley surrounding them. For these freshman it will be the most hostile environment they've ever played in. BC and Duke will be favored over us as well. NC State/Pitt will be closer to pick 'ems assuming we win this week. I'm guessing we will prob be a 1 pt favorite against NC State at home and prob a 2/3 point dog against Pitt on the road. We can win just about any of those games except Clemson, however to assume we will win them all with a beat up team being led by freshman QBs is insane. Maybe if Walter Reyes was in the backfield but he isn't.
