Stay competitive with Bama and we’ll still be top 20 with our entire season in front of us.

Lol @ Iowa St and Cinci hype no way extremely overrated!

#14 is a great spot for us. Not too high, but not too low. If we perform, we are easy striking distance to get in the ACCCHGM and dare I utter the words...perhaps a playoff spot.

Respectfully disagree, they both return most of their starters. Just because the names aren’t traditional powerhouses doesn’t mean they’re overrated.

Season comes down to UNC game. Realistically we aren’t beating bama but every other game on our schedule is winnable. The season rides on the UNC game we lose that one and the season will likely head for disaster

The voters obviously haven't read the scrimmage thread

Iowa St is decent and has an easy schedule. They get Iowa, OK State, and Texas at home. Their only tough road game is Oklahoma. Hence the # 7 preseason ranking.

Iowa state is winning the Big 12. Save this porst

No fspoo, I'm sure Bobby is rolling over in his grave....

 

[HurricaneKush]

About right

 

[Rellyrell]

I had us pegged at 14-15. Very fair based upon record of last reason despite the final two games, our schedule, and the amount of talent + experience we’re bringing back. Everything is in our favor this yr. Barring any unforeseen injuries to King, we should roll to the ACCCG & possibly contend for a CFP spot. At worst, a NY6 bid.

This. We need to win this crappy Coastal Divison. Bama won’t matter. UNC destroyed and made a mockery of us last year.

NC State is going to be a good team this season. A lot of people are sleeping on them.

Not sure what Cincinnati is bringing back this season, but that was a good *** team last year.

 

[rok]

That is good. It will be tough to tumble out of the top 25 even if we get blowed by Alabama.

 

[Colombie]

We will be #1 once we beat Bama.
#15-0.
