1st, a caveat - nothing is certain in this life and definitely not in FCB. Not me, but many assumed BAMA was gonna blow out Clemp'sson and there are many other examples. So, obviously, that truth applies to my naive statement below.

Having said that, I predict a regular season record of 11-1 or 12-0 IF: Hurts comes, JT returns and the new DC is able to pick up where MD left Off with the D. These seem like very doable things.

On paper, our hardest game is against the Gaytors and with the above written scenario, I don't see why they would beat us. On paper, with the way the team is set up now, we shouldn't lose to anyone on next year's schedule. Ball bounces the wrong way and we lose to PITT or something stupid, which would put us at 11-1. ACCCHGM is another thing and let's just get through the regular season 1st.

Of course, preseason, we were predicted as a favorite in all 12 games and we saw how that ended, but nonetheless, it's a new day, and I'm feeling optimistic!

Alright, I said it! Let the blasting begin!!!!

Our schedule overall is pretty yawn inducing. Get by FSU and UF and there's no reason to lose a game next year.

But we've all said that a thousand times before.

Every syllable of this is true. Nonetheless, I'm optimistic. Let's Go Canes!!

Film, I gonna blast you to smithereens...


For getting me excited!!!


But seriously, just think about how depressed we all were just a few weeks ago after the Pinstripe Bowl? I was seriously dreading this off-season. Was about as bad as when the Fat Boys broke up
 
Here's the thing, we should be able to out-athlete every team on the schedule except for UF and FSU. We've outcoached FSU with MR's staff, so I don't expect that to change. UF will be a big challenge, but that QB is vulnerable and they lost a lot of key players.
 
Y’all set yourself up for this every year. 12-0 is incredibly rare even more so by a new staff. All three phases of the field will be led by a new face in game one. The Gators will be in year two of their system while we’re still working out the kinks.

Not saying it won’t happen but you don’t beat teams just because you “should” beat them
 
You do realize that we were a decent OC away from a 10 win season last year.

Now I’m not saying we were great, I’m saying our competition was not that good. We just couldn’t score in that 4 game losing streak.
 
Lets just pretend all the rumors are true. We have a playoff caliber team.

QB - Tate/Hurts
O Line - Kennedy/Donaldson/Gaynor/Reed/Scaife/Campbell/other grad transfer
RB - Dallas/Lingard
Scat Back - Cam Davis
TE - Jordan/Mallory
WR - Osbourn/Thomas/Pope/Hightower/Wiggins/Njoku

DT - Nesta/Bethel Ford/Ucla guy Miller/Rice guy
DE - Rousseau/Garvin
LB Shaq/Pinckney/Mccloud
Striker Finley/Smith
CB - Blades/Ivey/Bandy/Frierson/Couch
S - Bolden/Hall/Carter/Smith

P - Hedley
K - Bubba

With that D, we were an 11 win team with Dan Enos or some other professional OC/QB coach.

I didn't want to get SUPER Blasted by mentioning playoffs, but we are totally getting set up to be an under the radar Cinderella play off team. LOTS of smoke will be blown up Clemson's ..... over the next 8-11 months. We Canes have see it all happen to our team in either direction. These are not super men in SC. It's one team of college students playing another team. Anything can happen in the ACCCHGM.

I know this is all cart before the horse, but I'm sick of living in negativity! Bring on the dogs of war and let's shock the nation like only Hurricanes can do!!
