Current GT reg season win O/U is 4.5

Since you cannot win half a game, that means 5-7 is the prediction. That was last season. So then, no improvement? Baloney. The program is at least marginally better in every facet, between the ears attitude, preparation, game day coaching, talent, experience, S&C….

You gotta pick up one game at least. Minimum of 6-6, optimistically 7-5.

Yeah 6.5 would've given me a pause, but I think we fall backwards into 5 wins
 
Wins (5) - SCSU, BGSU, BC, @UVA, Syracuse
Toss-ups (4) - Louisville, @Wake, @Miami, UNC
Losses (3) - @Ole Miss, @Clemson, UGAg

Just 5 wins this season means we took no toss-ups, or we did but blew a game we should have won. Either could happen, but I'm thinking with the upgrades we made in the offseason, that won't happen. The good thing is only one "should win" game is away - UVA. They will likely not be very good. I'm feeling pretty good about 6 wins this fall. Stealing Wake or Miami on the road would set us up for 7 wins.

Of course, this is all just preseason talk. We'll know a lot more this time next week.

We won 5 last year with clown coaching the first four and with an OC who has perennially underperformed. It’s not hard to argue we could have won 6 last year with Key as coach from day 1, and the roster and coaching staff looks to be improved this year. If your looking to have a pity party, this isn’t the right board.

I don’t understand this thinking.

My analysis.

1) Roster is deeper than it has been in a long time and more talented 1st string at most positions. Concerns are DL and LB compared to 2022.

2) ACC isn’t a super strong conference.

3) Schedule is easier this year than the last few.

* Most opponents are a wash: UGA, Clem, etc
* Bowling Green is easier game than UCF
* So the debatable opponents

2022: FSU, Pitt, Duke, VT
2023: UofL, Wake, Cuse, BC

Seems clear to me that 23 is easier than 22.

This is at least a 5 win team. I think the Vegas number should be 5/5.5
 
-105?!? Talk about the juice not being worth the squeeze.

I think 5 or 6 wins are the most likely scenarios. But this payout is terrible. Especially since 4 wins is not totally out of the question.

Cuse is not a lock. And NONE of those are "toss-ups." We will be an underdog is all of them. Hell, Louisville is ALREADY laying eight against us.

Take off the rose-tinted glasses and join us over here in Realville.

I don't think I understand betting.

Wouldn't that mean if you bet $100 on both you'd get $5 if we go over and $35 if we go under?
