Wake Conference Schedule Predictions Contest

Win at VT. Home wins against GT, BC and Clemson.

4-14. VT on the road scares me.
 
7-10-1. That's right, by the time we play BC in March, at the end of regulation, the game will be tied and both teams will lose interest to complete same and both teams will agree to end the game in a tie sending the crowd of 300 fans home.

Is the Superbowl allowed to end in a tie?

4 ACC road wins? Wow, you have a lot of faith in the Bz.

Yeah, that's why I said it's my best-case. If I had to put money on those results, I'd need like 20-1 odds. Even if we made it to 9-9 I'd still be rooting for [Redacted]'s exit. That's how pathetic it is - year 4 and the best-case scenario still gets the coach fired.

5-13

I wanted to go 6-12 but when looking at the individual games, I just do not see six wins.

ETA: I switched loss at MD to a win and made it my #1. I switched win at home against Clemson to a loss then made that game a #6 and the BC game a #9. It is now perfect. Only Buzz can mess it up now. Uh oh, I just realized I picked Buzz to win two on the road. So much for perfection...

ETA: OK. I switched the home Clemson game back to a win. I have talked myself up to 5 conference wins.

7-11. And I think that's best case scenario.
 
It's amazing how pre-[Redacted] I knew the record of every opponent and the relative strength of the ACC without any research. Filling this out was the first time I've looked at any of the other ACC teams. The ACC is pretty mediocre. Besides Duke and Syracuse, Wake is really one of the only teams without one really bad loss. I'm going to guess we end up at 6-12 in conference. If we had a competent coach we could easily go 10-8 and be on the bubble. I think Bz is good for -5 wins versus someone competent and 7-8 versus a good to great coach.

UNC (L) 9
@UVA (L) 8
@ Pitt (L) 17
NCSU (w) 4
@Clemson (L) 5

One final bump before the UNC game for anyone who hasn't seen this.

11-7

I think with our practice of playing in front of only a few fans at home, we're bound to be prepared to play in front of a few of our fans on the road and steal a game or two.

Predict the outcomes of each of Wake's 18 conference games. Also, assign point values (1-18) to each of the games based on your confidence in your prediction (much like ESPN's Bowl Mania contest). The more confident you are in a prediction, the more points you want to assign to that game and vice versa. You only receive the points assigned to a game if you correctly predict the win/loss outcome. Winner is the person who has the highest point total. Entries obviously due before the game next Sunday vs. UNC.

@ Woody - Are you going to work up a score sheet or something?

Will do it at the end of the season. Feel free to do one periodically throughout the season if you'd like.

Prediction sure to go wrong (7-11).

You picked NCSU and ND as both #5. I guess the group could throw out your entry since so much is riding on this contest, but I have generously counted your NCSU entry as your missing #4. :thumbsup:
