Bowl Game
Military Bowl
 
I don’t think it’s gonna be as good as some but it’s not gonna be embarassing and will include a fair number of close losses. We will play hard and disciplined all year.

5-7.
 
I think the offense will be improved. I’m hoping the defense improves too or at least doesn’t have a significant drop off from last year. All in all, 6 wins is what I expect.
 
5-7

We look average on offense and notice the loss of Keion, Charlie, and Ace on defense. Lots of 35-31 and 31-28 type scores. It'll be more competitive, but there's going to be a few games where we don't get stops when we need them.
 
I pretty sure we will not lose a game till the first time we don’t pick up a first down. The the 2nd time we don’t pick up a first down I’m sure I will think we will not win a game . ( be honest most on here do the same thing we are Tech fans.
Hard to say not knowing anything about the other things but I can see 7 win with luck maybe more.

but I will pull against FSU no matter who they play. Starting to hate them as much as uga

Razor thin margins between 4-8, 7-5. The season will really come down to the swing games against Wake, BC, UVA and Syracuse. GT seems to have UNC’s number, while GT continues to struggle with a bad UVA program, especially in Charlottesville. Questions TBD are:

How good will Wake be without Hartman?
Can BC get back to being a ground and pound physical O after a down 3-9 season?
Will Syracuse take a step back following a bad close to the 2022 season? From 6-0 to 7-6.

I don’t see us losing at UVA (even if they beat us last year at home). They’re still really bad we may have lucked out by passing on Tony Elliott
But Clawson is a good coach so I think Wake may be an L. I think what gets trotted out as Mack Brown may be a hologram but UNC finally could just outathlete us this year.
 
Obviously none of us will actually know anything at all about this team until toe meets leather at the Benz. So call it wishful thinking or call me naive or just plain stupid, but this is my current projection for the season, where "T" represents toss-up

And yes, I predicted a win against the mutts. They lost the two men most responsible for their offense, and we got one of the two, and they hired Mike Booboo as OC.
 
Likely Wins: SC State, Bowling Green, Cuse, UVA, BC

Toss ups: Louisville, UNC, Miami, wake

Likely Losses: ole miss, Clemson, uga

Figure we lose one we shouldn’t (always happens) so hopefully 4-1 Vs likely wins, 2-2 vs toss ups - that puts us at 6-6. Winning an extra toss up or a likely loss gives us a pretty solid 7-5 record with a couple nice wins in there. I think when all is said and done we will be 7-6 in Key Year 1 with good momentum heading into 2024
 
10-2

Confident that Key & crew won't continue the embarrassment that we've suffered through the last few years. We don't look inept in any of our losses.

L Sep 1 vs Louisville - They have a solid QB and a good defense with 6 starters returning. We lose, but have a good showing.
W Sep 9 vs SC State - We win this one running away and enjoy a great halftime from the Marching 101.
L Sep 16 @ Ole Miss - Rebs might come into game cocky after having blown up Mercer and Tulane in the previous weeks. We give them fits early on but they settle in by the 4th qtr. They beat the spread.
W Sep 23 @ Wake Forest - Assuming we're healthy after our trip to Oxford, we beat the Deacs in a close one.
W Sep 30 vs Bowling Green - Finish out September with a drubbing of Bowling Green.
L Oct 7 @ Miami - Canes coming off a bye week and a fairly easy schedule so far (expt A&M). Miami beats us and the spread.
W Oct 21 vs Boston College - BC's thin O line is crumbling. We bounce back on a gorgeous October weekend and thrash BC.
W Oct 28 vs North Carolina - Riding high from the BC win, we shock UNC, who is favored by 14 points.
L Nov 4 @ Virginia - Charlottesville curse in full effect. We come in off a high from beating the Tarholes and lose in ugly, rainy weather due to turnovers or missed field goal.
L Nov 11 @ Clemson - Key rallies the troops but we lose a close one to the Tiggers.
W Nov 18 vs Syracuse - We beat up the Orange and the spread, giving us hope and momentum going into the next week.
L Nov 25 vs Georgia - 1999 still remains our last home win against the mutts.

Finish 6-6 and go to the Gasparilla or Birmingham Bowl - and win it. Finish year 7-6.
 
I'll stop short of picking actual games - a crap shoot at best. So I'll stick to a general prediction of not getting outclassed by anybody on our schedule. Been a long time since that was the case for an entire season. I think we will win at least 7 games with a reasonable shot at 8 by Dec 1.

Just going into a season without having a game or two or three on the schedule that I'm just dreading is quite a relief.

Not a single game do I think "no chance" - not one.
