[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 167589, member: 944"] Well, I am still trying to figure out how last year's team managed to lose to UNC and Duke, considering whop they beat and they played late in the year. My point being that if there are two things I have learned in my years of watching college football, one is that GT is always, ALWAYS and emotional team that has the ability to play with anyone ...and the ability to lose to anyone (well, OK, not anyone, but just about). The other is that fewer things are more meaningless than pre-season predictions. The "experts" aren't just wrong every year, they are spectacularly wrong with their preseason picks pretty much every year. And we aren't experts. Certainly I am not. I guess that is why we all go to watch the games...because in truth we have very little idea what will happen. All I can tell you is that I believe we will enter every game with a solid chance to compete, and to win. The bounces of the ball, the refs, the weather, injuries and karma will determine our final record. We are not a factory wherein we can simply out-athlete 10 of the teams on our schedule and only need "luck" in the other two...we probably can feel that way about 4 games, and the other 8 are up for grabs. That is a recipe for about 9-3, but my guess is as meaningless as the experts' guesses. [/QUOTE]
