9/1-@ ND- Bennett puts the home crowd in silence and gives the ND fans nothing to cheer about. W 38-3
9/8- Samford- backups play whole second half. W 56-3
9/15- BC- tough three quarters and then jackets take the lead on a travis bell field goal with 3 seconds left in the game. W 23-20
9/22-@ UVA- we suck in Charlottesville but the cavs are still a young but talented team. jackets win but not as as bad as the score says. W 31-14
9/29- Clemson- payback is hell and can you say R-E-V-E-N-G-E!!!!!!!!! W 41-10
10/6-@ Maryland- the terps will be good but Hollenbach is gone. close tough fought game. W 27-19
10/13-@ Miami- The jacket defense throughs Nix's playback in his face and makes him puke all in the press box. W 28-3
10/20- Army- see Samford. W 63-7
11/1- VA Tech- this game will have a electric atmosphere. Bennett takes over in the 4th qt. W 24-14
11/10-@ Duke- they will be a little bit better but not that much. W 45-7
11/17- UNC- i'm still not sold on Davis and they don't have a qb. W 38-10
11/24- UGAy- The streak is over. Stafford is gonna have a sophmore slump like every other qb has. W 38-3
12/1- BC (ACCCG)- the same as the regular season game except instead of the late fg, we get a late td from JJ or DT. W 27-20
1/7- USC (NCG)- after trail the 1st 3 quarters 21-14, Bennett steps up and ties the game at 21 with 5:13 remaining and then we get a INT from Morgan Burnett and he returns to the the USC 38 yd line with 2:19 left in the game. we use the time very wisely and drvie it down to the USC 8 yd line. Travis Bell hits the game winning 25 yd fg with the time expiring. GT wins 24-21.

This probably won't happen but I was just having fun. How do you guys think the 2007 season will shape up?
 
I like your enthusiasm and positive mindset there gt09.
 
The biggest disagreement I have with your projection, strangely enough, is UVA. We simply cannot beat UVA in Charlotsville. I seriously believe Sisson made a pact with the devil, that GT would never win again in at UVA if he could just make that kick.
 
Don't think Richt will allow Stafford to have a Soph slump. He'll pull Stafford so fast it will make his head spin if he does not perform. I see a big difference in the philosophies of Richt and Gailey in terms of allowing sub-optimal performers to continue playing. This past season was actually one of the best chances we have had in a long time to beat UGA and it simply didn't happen.

I also wouldn't rule Weis or home-field advantage out for ND. That will be a tough game in South Bend.

@ND--W
Samford--W
BC--W
@UVA--L
Clemson--W
@Maryland--L
@Miami--W
Army--W
VT--W
@Duke--W
UNC--W
UGA--W(finally)

10-2 with a possible championship game berth, if Miami and VT slip up elsewhere. If not, maybe(big maybe) BCS at-large selection with a victory at ND and finishing the season on a 6 game winning streak with victories at Miami, national tv against VT, and against UGA.

I like gtfan's prediction better though.

gtfan 09, is that an over the counter drug you are on or just leftover booze from the Super Bowl? Either way I like the way you think, it would be so nice.
 
9/1-@ ND- W
9/8- Samford- W
9/15- BC- W

Gaily cant beat UGA! This year was his best shot. VT and Miami are the only other two teams that could beat us. 9-3
 
@ND--W
Samford--W
BC--W
@UVA--W
Clemson--W
@Maryland--W
@Miami--W
Army--W
VT--L
@Duke--W
UNC--W
UGA--L(That hurts bad to type, but I don't see UGA dropping below a top ten team for a long time. Stafford is the real deal, and UGA's recruiting/low requirements brings in way too much talent. If we can get a few recruiting years like this year's, we will be a much bigger force to be reckoned with.)

10-2 with an ACCCG thanks to VT's buckling to UM and Clemson.

Note: My predictions have a +/- 5-game margin of error.
