The season is getting close. Can't wait. Being as objective as possible.

OSU - L, They are really good. We win in vegas but not on the scoreboard.
Fur - W, No FCS scare here.
at Pur - W, Unless D.Brees can suit up, we have this one.
at ECU - W, So tired of playing them.
Pitt - W, Unless Conner goes all Duke Johnson on us, we'll be ok.
NCST - L, They are just good enough to give us trouble on a good day, this is an off day for the offense.
at Mia - W, Payback with no Duke Johnson
Duke - W, Lost too much and gained too little.
at BC - W, Close as always, but we pull it out.
at GT - W, I still don't know how we lost last year.
UNC - W, Hopefully by then they have nothing to play for, hurry up NCAA.
at UVa - W, N+1 years and counting.
ACCCG vs Clemson: We get lucky and get some TO's and scrape out a win. Clemson clemsoning.
Non Playoff BCS game: L, much like last year achieving a perceived goal before the season is done.

Just a few notes about this years schedule.
-Pitt & Duke have an open week before playing us. This seems down from the typical 6 or 7 teams coming off byes.
-GT sorta does, but we do too with the Thursday night game.
-Both out-of-division ACC games, BC & NC State, play us directly after playing Louisville.
-Miami gets us after F$U.
-UNC gets us after Miami.
-Ecu gets us driectly after Navy.
Seems a little more friendly than some of the other times where pieces have fallen.

I'm thinking the O clicks a little better this year, and can score without as much trouble as last year. Looking at 10-3 with a tier 1 bowl victory!

Never been a country fan outside of Garth Brooks but I fully welcome this. Would be awesome if he busted out Enter Sandman in a true rendition.

also, comments on country music above are shortsighted and ignorant. Listening to a specific genre of music is no more telling of an individual as one's preference to eating cake or pie is. (and my plan to subvert the divisive rhetoric above into a TKP fan favorite has begun)....

Yes, I'm sure. The issue in that game was that they fell in love with the pass but couldn't pass protect. They didn't run Voytik much, but enough to where you could tell that it might be an issue the next week. They may have been still installing the entire package, but they were definitely running it earlier in the year and it was on tape.

I think the big issue that night wasn't the scheme but rather execution. Too many guys not getting off of blocks or making tackles in the hole.

I've always liked what Lefty has done for us offensively. He was trying to make lemonade with limes, aspartame, and a solid block of ice. It took some time but his concoction turned out better than what good 'ole stiney could make. No offense to stiney but there was no offense...pun intended. He's a hell of a great recruiter though.

Now that its year 3 bringing in the tight ingredients for that lemonade and a year 2 brewer in the Lefty system with year 2 OL under Searels, we definitely can get after them instead of them getting after ya.

With all the articles and topic posts on our offense and how it stacks up, it's reasonably safe to board the hype train this year. I haven't been excited like this since T-mobile days.

I think if the coaches truly view Lawson as "the guy" starting in 2016 and beyond, an argument could be made for getting him on the field with a scaled back package of plays for game experience. But I think he would have to bring something to the table that Durkin does not in order to avoid the redshirt and get on the field. If Durkin is as effective or better than Lawson in the wild turkey/change of pace QB role, then it makes sense to have Lawson dress and learn the ropes this year, setting up a battle between himself, Durkin, and Motley next offseason. I'm just curious as to what the OP saw in order to say that he would not redshirt Lawson.
