next year's schedule is cake....

[TXCane99]

Seriously legit 9 wins against that schedule if we can find us a QB. I hope Emory comes back and slings it. But this is an easy schedule. UF is bad, FSU's wonderman QB is done and they are at Hard Rock, Cal is not good, and we get VaTech at home.

[Yoyo82]

11 wins.... Only team that should even be a tossup will be a much weaker FSU team...

 

[Gi0logy]

Just hope we can find a way to win against the vaunted Cardinals from Ball State. Will definitely be a grind out effort from the team. Let's just pray we can get it to overtime and squeak out a win.

 

[crossover22[]_[]]

Lol at being happy with 9 wins in year 3 at 8 million per year.


We gonna lose games we shouldn't.

 

[Geddy Lee]

Holy **** this is the first time I've heard this in the last 20 years. Oh yea easy schedule we will for sure win 10 games at least. 12 games later and the team finishes 6-6 or 7-5.

 

[OrangeBowlMagic]

No bigger proponent for hiring Mario than me but 10 wins is the bar next year. 2023 was a much better team than 2022. If 2024 is much better than 2023, you gotta find a way to get to 10.

I said this year anything less than 8 was a failure. Well, we failed.

Next year the bar is raised higher. I know he’s probably here for several more years regardless but there should be a lot of hot seat talk if he doesn’t win 10 next year. Or absolute minimum 9 and that’s still not gonna make us too content. Continue to upgrade the roster, starting at QB. You put just a kid like Michael Pratt on this team and we probably win 9 games this year. Go get someone good and this team can and will follow suit.

Locked wins: FAMU, Ball State
90% or better wins: USF
75% chance or better wins: GT, Wake, Syracuse, VT, Cal
50/50: UF, Duke, Louisville
Lower than 50% or TBD: FSU

I'll caveat that by saying:
-Traveling to Cal or west coast in general isn't easy for a team that has never had to do that. What game is before and after Cal? Might present issues for those as well.
-Syracuse isn't an easy place to play
-You just saw what Louisville can do to us.
-I'll wait and see what FSU and UF do in the portal. FSU is old and losing a lot but can reload. UF is very young and has pieces that could surprise us.
-We also have tons of holes that have to be filled via portal - likely including QB which could completely throw a wrench in those % if we don't hit decent there

Bull**** that we played Florida at Camping World and now in Gainsville.

Bull**** that we played Florida at Camping World and now in Gainsville.

They come to hard rock the following year. Also, I think 2025 will be the nail in the coffin with that schedule.

 

[AUcane]

We'll be life and death struggles with half of those teams given our HC's mindset and offensive philosophy.

 

[Bender]

Fire Mario.

 

[MiamiVice7]

They come to hard rock the following year.

They’re scheduled to come. Still plenty of time to do coward Gator things.

They come to Miami in 2025.

2025 Florida, ND, FSU, Louisville, NC State, and SMU. Oof we've better have a **** of a 2024 to turn it around.

6 wins. Anything more then I will be surprised. Mario is going to whiff on the portal.

We play our 4 biggest rivals. Can you imagine going 1-3 or 2-2 against them?

 

[Jonnyblaze]

Doesn’t matter what the schedule is. We’ve had “manageable” schedules for years.

This is a 7-5 program, plus or minus 2 games, and that depends on some coin flip games, and the football gods. Last 20 years has proven that.

You can go back season after season and see that we were a handful of plays away from 8/9 wins, and a handful of plays away from 4/5 wins.

Past is prologue.

 

[JayCane20]

2025 Florida, ND, FSU, Louisville, NC State, and SMU. Oof we've better have a **** of a 2024 to turn it around.

Bain, Wayne, Fletcher, Mauigoa, Okunlola, Joseph, Aguirre, Washington, Damari, Kinsler, etc will be juniors. By far the best junior class of any of those teams.

Should be fine by then. You would hope.
