Absurdly Early 2024 Predictions

[orientalnc]

In one year our per game scoring went from 17 points per game to 31 points per game. From 24 TDs to 51. Improvement is certainly possible.

I picked 7 wins but we need a lot of transfer pickups on defense to make that realistiv

We need help for sure but I was encouraged by what I saw in the bowl game. It appears some of our current defenders are teachable.

I agree with this, and wish Moala was coming back.

Moala really came on at the end of the year.

Our head coach and new defense staff will be tested.

Compared to other teams trying to get better we have
- New scheme for players
- New coaches not familar players skill set.

Our Offense could get a lot better if WR and TE get open.

We better have it ALL together by Benz ND , Vt away, and Mia at home.

The odds aren’t amazing, but if we are heading into the Benz undefeated to play ND - that game will be so wild.

Considering the stakes and how ND fans litter this earth, I bet the Benz would be packed (nosebleeds included, 70k seats).
There’s a good chance they will be undefeated, so likely top 10. We would be top 20 with wins over FSU, Louisville and UNC.

No telling what becomes of GT football with a win there, but garunteed the next BDS game vs Miami would be ELECTRIC.

A man can dream.

I think our offense will be fine. If Key and Santucci can make our D respectable we should be competitive with our first eleven opponents.

We were competitive with our 12th last season.

One game does not a trend make but Key seemed to out-coach Smart.

Also, it helped that their three top receivers didn't play.

And I think UGA will be on a mission this year to get one of the top 4 seeds to get a bye

Lovett played, he was their #2 receiver.

 

[MonroeJacket]

Really the past two years.

I think that some of their players were banged up against us, and also against Bama. I don’t think UGA overlooked us—more so that the schedule wore them down more than previous seasons.

That really had little to do with the defense. UGA still scored most times they had the ball. What kept the score lower and kept us in the game had everythign to do with our success running the ball.... and there's.

Yeah personally I don’t let their 3 injured players discredit our fight. Everybody loses weapons, we didn’t have silvain

Why folks make excuses for UGA while minimizing our accomplishments is odd to me.

ugag had 9 possessions. They scored 4 TD's. One FG. Didn't score on 4 others.
