Looking over our schedule......

Think we will go 8-4, with no blowout loses. I hate saying this as a Pitt fan, cause it was our mantra for 30 years and counting, but we are set up nicely in 2017. I think we can do something special this year but our talent will be young.

Well in 2017 you have to assume Pitt will be breaking in a new QB, so not sure I agree with your observation. With the schedule in 2016, an 8-4 regular season and a bowl win--I'd be satisfied. Not willing to look further ahead than that. Hail to Pitt!

Agreed 8-4. Although who knows how many wins the James Conner effect will have, his unfortunate situation is motivating his teammates already. The only seemingly unwinnable game is Clemson.

The coastal had a down year last year. Teams like Ga tech, duke, and Va tech were down.. To be determined to see how hokies do with new coach, I am not gonna say they'll be great because I heard of their coach, all new coaches look great, not all end up that way.. That Tech QB was below average although they supposedly have some 5 star player waiting in the wings, redshirted last year..

Duke will be better but they will always have a poor defense.. Tech sucked and we needed a 87 yard field goal to beat them, I expect that to be a tough one.. Of course Miami will be better, that QB is one year older and we have them there.. UNC will be beatable, Quise was 90% of their team last year, that white dude backing him up isn't scary.. Virginia sucks and Cuse is very winnable at home..

PSU is a big one, leaving the whole rivalry out of it for now.. Really need to win 3 OOC games.. Marshall will be good but we'll be favored at home, the FCS scrimmage is a practice so not even gonna comment on it..

The games we will be decidedly underdogs in will be at cowboys, at canes, and at Clemson.

We're going to the ACC Championship Game. Anything after that depends on how much they want it.
