Look at their schedule objectively and try to get them a game over .500 at best.

Schedule is tough but I think they beat Oregon and lose to USC the following week.

 

After that I think Washington beats them and I could see them ending the season with only 2 losses.

 

At the end of the day I think they end the season as a top 25 ranked team. That would be a overachievement for Deion in his 1st season. That program won 1 game last year.

Defense needs to show up for the Heels today. I watched the Minny vs Nebraska game and was not impressed really by anything Minny did. PJ Fleck is a good coach and somebody who might get a promotion to UNC once Mack retires. 

We've been waiting for our D to show up for years. The South Carolina game gave me some real hope but then the App game was back to looking like a matador again.

It was puzzling how they looked incredible against a good QB and probably a better overall team talent wise than App but then looked like ass last week. 
 

I’ve been reading and hearing about how incredible the Gopher D is but come on they haven’t played anyone worth a crap, and frankly if anyone else was coaching Nebraska they probably lose. 
 

Still, never count out the UNC defense to embarrass the school and fans and we seem to play to the level of our competition so I’m sure the no name Qb will look like Tom Brady.

One of our DL said after the game that the South Carolina OTs were tipping their hand pre-play whether it was run or pass based on how they were lining up. I believe it because that defensive performance seems like an anomaly in recent years.

I think Oregon beats them by three scores and introduces some reality to the runaway hype train.

I'd agree, with the sole caveat that not many likely would have predicted them beating TCU either, so there's that.

I have no good reason to believe this, but I think Florida will upset Tennessee in the swamp tonight.

Yeah I laid off this game betting wise. I don’t think Tenn has won in the swamp in like forever and that UF coach feeling some heat.

Good luck with that. This roster just isn't very good. I'm expecting the Heels to go .500 this year.

 

Drake Maye should have transferred this program doesn't deserve a talent like that.

I think Oregon is the start of reality setting in for Colorado….and Deion starts to down some of his noise. 

Nebraska is a horrible team overall.  A TCU was a trash D with a rebuilt O.  Colorado is definitely greatly improved and overrated at the same time right now

Based on what TCU did last year but they lost pretty much their entire offense and they were a team carried by offense. That number beside their name was a nod to last year's achievements and last year culminated in one of the worst beatdowns of all time in a high level championship game. They're not good. Significantly worse than I expected. It was a combo of CU being significantly better than expected and TCU being significantly worse than expected.

    • https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2024/06/bruins-hurricanes-could-swap-linus-ullmark-and-martin-necas.html The Boston Bruins are continuing to garner more and more interest for their former Vezina Trophy-winning goaltender Linus Ullmark, giving them a chance to be picky about the return. That could exclude much of the league from acquiring the star netminder, with Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman sharing on The Jeff Marek Show that he doesn’t believe teams like the Vancouver Canucks or Montreal Canadiens have the assets to acquire Ullmark. Friedman added that the Carolina Hurricanes could be one of the few teams rich enough for the deal, especially if they involve forward Martin Necas. https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/carolina-hurricanes Expect the Maple Leafs and Predators to be two of the top suitors for Hurricanes defenseman Brett Pesce if he hits the open market next month, The Fourth Period’s David Pagnotta reports.  
    • They do, just when. I hate to be pessimistic but it’s all about the QB. I can’t recall a QB situation where a bad QB (not bad stats, but looking like they don’t belong) turned a team around. Peyton Manning had a ridiculous amount of interceptions but he didn’t show his future limitations. Usually, it was picking another QB in the draft. Unfortunately, IMHO, we won’t be really better until we get our Cam v2, someone who can carry the team and not win only if we have a stud lineup around him. That’s why I’m more interested in how the rest of the draft picks do to see if we can actually solve holes like the ones we created losing Olsen, CMC, Moore, Turner/Kalil/Norwell, etc. I want to actually be one QB away not Fitterer’s definition of one player away.
    • I will say once you have been in newer arenas and stadiums with their way better bathroom set-ups, it is such a massive improvement. It clears up a lot of insane lines just waiting around to piss.  I have taken to not drinking at all at older stadiums just so I don't have to deal with planning when to take a piss and what part of the game I am gonna be forced to miss because of it. It's so nice to be in a new arena/stadium with way better bathroom accessibility that doesn't force you to literally miss the game. Not to mention I will actually spend money on booze there then.
