[QUOTE="Augusta_Jacket, post: 960316, member: 1191"] IMO, and I stress opinion, I think we should be favored in three more games: BG, BC, and UVA. Like [USER=3440]@ThatGuy[/USER] said above, however, UVA @ UVA always scares me. If we win all four we meet the 4 win floor that I called at the beginning of this season. Nothing in what I have seen so far suggests we will beat Ole Miss, uga, or Miami. Not that we couldn't play above what I've seen, but the odds are heavy that these three are additional losses. That puts us at 4-4. That leaves Wake Forest, UNC, Syracuse, and Clemson. I think it's entirely possible we could split these four to go 6-6 this year, providing we take care of business in the games that IMO we should be favored in. Wake Forest has less talent but is a well coached team. They consistently win games against teams with more talent than them. UNC has a lot of talent but a strong record of playing to the level of their opponent. We are also their "UVA" so here's hoping. Syracuse is probably a close game. They should have a good team but we won't know for a few weeks just how good they are. They play Purdue this weekend so we should be able to see just how good they might or might not be. Finally, there is Clemson. I have my doubts we win, but after witnessing week 1 and the first half of week 2, there's definitely a glimmer of hope. At the beginning of the season I predicted 5-7 with some close losses. 6-6 if we get a break or two along the way. I think that's still a reasonable prognostication. Our OL, while improved, still leaves a lot to be desired when matched against P5 competition and our DL is in desperate need of a breakout player to emerge. Until we get the OL/DL issues resolved, we are going to need to make hay against the bottom end of our schedule and get a break or two along the way if we want to make a bowl game this year. [/QUOTE]
