COMING WEDNESDAY: 2014 #ACCFB schedule will be released at 3pm here: http://theacc.co/FB14schedule What matchup are you most looking forward to?

I figured I'd go ahead and start this thread now and whenever the schedule comes out we can discuss the specifics.

My understanding of our ACC opponents:

Home
Boston College
Clemson
Syracuse
Virginia Tech

Away
Duke
Florida State
Louisville
NC State

And the OOC is:
At Utah State
At ULM
rumored to be Western Carolina
Someone else at home?
 
Army at home.

We start @ULM, ???, @USU, Army. Really hope that ??? is WCU or at least BC at home.

Maybe 4 winnable conference games? Va. Tech certainly wasn't a world beater this year, but we never seem to fair well with them. Clemson, FSU, and Louisville would be pretty huge upsets.

Really, I was kind of hoping for Western, if for no other reason than just to play somebody different. We played Gardner Webb pretty recently didn't we?

Gimme wins: None
Possible wins: BC, Cuse, @State
Upset potential: @Duke, VT
Doubtful: @Clemson, @Louisville, @FSU

Formula remains the same. Win 3 non-con and 3 winnable ACC games and we make a bowl.

One of those at's needs to be a home.
Edit: it's Clemson. Not that it'll likely matter in the competitive sense.
 
8 bowl teams in 12 games. As things stood on the day the season ended, WF would be favored in only 2 games (G-W and Army). Cuse and BC at home would be close to a pick. The Deacs would have been a slight dog at ULM and State and a big dog against everyone else. Think that I would put the O/U on wins at 3.5 right now. Hope for a surprise.
 
We brought the Claw in because he's a turnaround specialist. Everybody left on the roster is starting at square one, and few have a positive rep going into the spring. We could win anywhere from 1 to 7 games.

Exactly. Even further stated, we brought in Claw because we couldn't trust the previous staff to get more than 3.5 wins. Don't burden him with the same low standard. A coach is supposed to do difficult things.
 
I'd rather not play a service academy. We seem to have two or three OOC staples that we just recycle. Service academies usually fill one of those spots. I don't know who I'd rather play, but I'd certainly like to see us mix it up a little.
