I understand the skepticism about winning 12-13 games in the ACC, but when you look at the schedule, it isn't crazy.
The only games where we are sub-20% are: @UNC and @Duke.
@Miami also a tall order (25%).
Unlikely: @NCSU (26%), vs UVA (31%),
Reasonable: @Pitt (33%), vs. UNC (35%), vs VT (38%), @Cuse (39%)
Toss-Up: @ND (45%), vs NCSU (48%), vs. Clemson (55%)
Let's assume we win the others: @Louisville (76%), vs FSU (79%), @BC (63%), vs GT (70%), vs ND (68%), vs BC (82%) - That's 6 wins + Duke = 7 wins.
If you say we win 4 of 7 of the reasonable/toss-ups, that's 11 ACC wins.
I think that is reasonable because I think we're a little better than our current KP (and will improve)... I also don't know if I think UNC, Pitt, & NCSU are as good as their current KPs.
Basically saying there are a lot of games left to be played... Winning 1 of the next 2 to finish this brutal 8 game stretch at 4-4 would be pretty good (you just have to forget about the LSU collapse, the ugly App St game, and how bad Rutgers whupped us).
