Hey.

I’m working on a better version of BHC market. So I’m going to post a bunch of polls. I’m using coit’s preseason poll and every week on Monday I’ll post a now that you’ve seen last game what’s the probability poll.

So what’s the probability we beat USF on Saturday?

Poll is private and closes Friday at 2pm.

They say that all men are created equal, but you look at Tech and you look at USF and you can see that statement is not true. See, normally if you go one on one with another team, you got a 50/50 chance of winning. But we’re geniuses and our offense is not even known!


So USF has a 25%, AT BEST, at beating us. Then you add our new Defensive Coordinator to the mix, their chances of winning drastic go down.

See between the 3 coaches on the field, USF has a 33 1/3 chance of winning, but we have a 66 and 2/3 chance of winning, because Wesley Wells KNOWS he'll only kick touchbacks and USF can't run back what they can't catch and they're not even gonna try!


So USF will take their 33 1/3 chance, minus our 25% chance and they have an 8 1/3 chance of winning against Coach Collins and Coach Thacker. But then take Collins 75% chance of winning and then add 66 2/3 per cents, we have a 141 2/3 chance of winning the the first Saturday in September


See USF, the numbers didn't lie, and they spell disaster for you in Atlanta.

USF didn't show us anything to be fearful of, playing at home against Wisconsin last week. I'll be really disappointed if we don't win this, but I think it might be closer than we'd like. Turnovers and a failure to make throws in our passing game could be our Achilles if we struggle. Still, I think we'll win by 10.

I'm hoping we learn from our turnovers

For our team's mental outlook entering "regular" ACC Play we need to win by 3 TDs

South Florida's new offensive coordinator, Kerwin Bell, fresh from a national championship season at Valdosta State, got a grand total of zero points--and looked rough doing it.

The season will be long regardless of the outcome Saturday.
Because we got boat-raced by the best Clemson team ever, in the first game of a new head coach, with a new scheme on both sides of the ball, in hostile territory?

USF is a team beneath us.

It will also be interesting to see how Clemson does against #12 TA&M on Saturday. If we win our game and Clemson wins that game easily, I'll feel better about our prospects for the season.
