Are “we” overconfident?

Absolutely.

If we go 6-3 in the ACC with an upset loss at Stanford, then AR may need to start gassing up his moving trucks to expedite Mario's dismissal.

What the **** are you talking about 6-3. Keep that bull**** to your self man. We are talented well coached and motivated. We shouldn't lose against anyone not named notre dame and I think we beat them also.

I just got through reading a piece about a forecast for the season, and it has us going six and three in the ACC and losing to Duke in the championship. I’ve also read quite a few quips where they think Stanford can upset Miami.
So I got to thinking, are we overconfident? What am I missing? This seems like our strongest team in, dare I say, decades.

If we lose 3 games in the ACC, I doubt we'd be in the acc championship game

Whatever outlet is hosting this "piece" should be IP banned for producing this content.
 
The hype machine on this site -- which I love -- can be a little overwhelming at times. Every third stringer is a potential super star. Virtually nothing is wrong. I almost feel as if I'm being set up for disappointment...

We "shouldn't" have lost to Louisville or SMU, but we did.

We "shouldn't" have lost to GT or Syracuse, but we did.

This is the next iteration of Mario as a Head Coach and Miami as a program. Win the vast, vast majority of the games you are supposed to win.

Nick Saban was 189-9 in his career as a double-digit favorite. So no, nobody is 100%. But you gotta win over 95% of those games. Mario has certainly not done that in his career to this point. It's the next phase of him and this program under him. Take care of business when business is supposed to be taken care of.

No, we're not losing on Friday. No, we're not losing 3 ACC games. Get all the way the **** outta my face with that nonsense. However, it's unacceptable to lose an ACC game this year outside of Clemson. Period. We will be a double-digit favorite in every single ACC game this season, except Clemson. I obviously expect to beat them (we will likely be about a TD favorite), but I don't think it's some long-term indictment if the ball bounces the other way and we lose. But 8-1 is the ABSOLUTE floor in the ACC. The literal bottom of the floor, underneath the foundation. Under no circumstances (Mensah injury aside) is it even remotely acceptable to lose 2 ACC games again.

I don't think we will.
 
Yeah probably, some (including myself) are acting like it’s an “easy” path back to the Natty. We’ve seen throughout that we play with our food, let less talented teams stick with us. This is a great team that really does inspire confidence, but we gotta go week by week.
 
We have the highest payed QB. We have great trenches. We have Heisman trophy quality skill players on offense. We have one of the toughest defenses in the Nation. We emphasized improving Special Teams in scrimmages and got decent kickers.

We should have high expectations.
