2024 non-GT games thread

[WreckinGT]

VT will do what they do every year. Lay eggs to start the season and then be competitive in conference play.

Am I the only one who thinks it’s ridiculous ESPN changed their song and scoreboard just for the SEC game? A little overkill to me

Is he working on a PhD now? A slow learner?

I would love to see how he met his NCAA progress toward degree requirements. Of course, they found a way to keep Stetson eligible.

Syracuse defense looks weak.

The acc… looks like the acc ever since 2014. Hopefully we don’t follow the trend

Florida is hot garbage, but Cam Ward has been impressive. Is the U back?

The U back ?

Well, Except that I want to win the conference. So we need teams to lose a couple games.

If FSU wins out that means they beat Miami, the highest-ranked ACC team remaining on our schedule. They would also hand losses to UNC and Duke. If we drop a game, we own the tie-breaker against the Noles, so even if, for example, Clemson or Louisville wins out, we are likely still in.

There may be other scenarios where if we drop a game we won't make the championship, but so far we still control our destiny. Louisville on the road could be a tough out, but they have to play Clemson, so one of them will have a loss.

Cam Ward is throwing lasers out there. I do think Florida sucks but he's impressive.

 

[RamblinCharger]

McCord looks good. We need to get pressure on him next week and run tha bawl

tessitore just informed us that Florida has the toughest schedule in modern football history. The SEC is so good and the new division less set up… blah blah blah.
Granted, their schedule does look pretty tough right now.
I bet Florida will be the best 6 win team in the nation right up until the point where it would benefit Miami or FSU.

Florida is terrible. When they fire sunbelt Billy, they’re backing the brinks truck up to Lane’s housr

That's what I was thinking. Does Kiffin go to the Gators?

I LOVE noodling through these scenarios after <1 "set of conference games". Not sarcasm. That HOMECOMING game on November 9th could be pretty cool.

Until then... there's
SYR
LOU
DUKE
UNC
&VT

The win v FSU was so huge for thinking & dreaming about these things.

TRIGGER... the "we can't look past the current opponent" fan forum folks who think they have a locker at BDS.

Manny, another guy (fellow clown?) who got beat by CGC…

Manny is an excellent DC but I’m just not seeing it as a head coach.

This may be the greatest nickname ever.

 

[forensicbuzz]

I apologize to VT fans, it is only castration. Not sure much of a difference playing football, but a difference.

I'm with you, take it all!

Wasn't trying to correct you, just add. I figured emasculation was a touchy-feely thing. Little did I know.

 

[slugboy]

Well, we’ve seen THIS before…

 

[Northeast Stinger]

If Miami beats Florida by, say, 30 points or more does that mean, on average, an average ACC team is 1-2 points better than an average SEC team, just going by averages?
