The Grounds

10-2; the team believes and the talent is there, young but there. These kids love playing for London and will run through walls this year.

I called 8-4 last year, just thought some of the 8 would come against other teams than FSU and Miami.

i wouldn't be completely shocked if we won 9-10 games, we lost a lot of we have a lot of replacements with talent and experience. not to mention the team looked pretty strong in the spring game minus a few bad snaps.

It will all come down to the secondary. If that unit gels, watch out. Are the safeties still coached by Dex and corners coach by West? I thought maybe some of the coaching assistants may have been shuffled around.

I think the number of losses we finish September with is the same number we end the season with. I really, really believe that.

I see Penn St, GT, TCU, NCSU, Miami, UNC and VPI as the tough games.

I don't think Penn State is going to have their offense together in week two and I think that negates one of our weaknesses in our secondary. I think our offense is going to produce, big.

I like UNC at home five days after they play GT, and I like NCSU after the bye week. They beat us after a bye last year, I think we return the favor.

I like Miami at home against a young team, and I love having 9 days to prepare for VPI and I will say it now, I do not think they will be able to replace their offensive production.

If our defense can produce, I expect L's to GT and TCU. And that's it. I'm an optimist but I'm usually pretty on point with record predictions.

Run to the Roar: The Movie
The Dramatic NCAA Champ Run in 2012....

....but seriously I'm thinking anywhere from 7-10 wins with biggest difficulty being the beginning of the season because of the competition and our youth...expect great things by mid-season...GO HOOS!

I got to thinking after I renewed my season tickets over the weekend when my son asked me if UVA was going to be any good this year. I pulled up this years schedule and I don't see an automatic loss in any game. I've looked at all our opponents and what they had coming back and they all have question marks as we do with our defense and how fast the youngsters develop and I can say our offense should be able to put up alot of points this year. So I'm going 9-3 with our 10th win coming in a bowl game. I would however not be shocked to do even better than that.

Wins: Richmond, Penn State, Louisiana Tech, Duke, Maryland, Wake Forest, NC State, North Carolina, VT

Loss: GT, TCU, Miami

Ill play along..

Wins: Richmond, LTech, Maryland, Miami, Wake Forest, Duke, NC State

Losses: PSU, TCU, Miami, UNC, GT, VT

I just think last year UVA snuck up on a few teams. This year UVA will have everybody's attention.

I'll go 7-6 regular season..... 1-0 bowl game

Note: PSU and UM could go either way inmo

Here's my crack at it: 8-4 with a solid bowl game

UR = W
PSU = W
GT = L
TCU = L
LT = W
DUKE = W
UM = W
Wake = W
NCSt = L
Miami = W
UNC = W
VT = L

Possible.. You just really never know which team will show up when UNC comes to town. As I said there are some game that could flip to me. That is one thing that is great about College Football you just never know.

Man you are putting me on the spot..

The Defense will be outstanding and keep us in almost every game. Ill go

Wins: GT, AP, Pitt, BG, Cincy, UNC, Duke, UM, FSU, BC, UVA

Loss: Clemson

But honestly it all depends on how the OL jells and if they can provide LT with time to throw. GT and FSU could go either way. No I do not think UVA will beat VT this year in Lane. Next year will be the year that UVA could upset VT.

I'm sorry but Florida State returns almost everyone and is bringin in even more dirty talent. They are going to destroy you.

its possible but playing in Lane on Thursday night is tough... EJ gets rattled pretty easy and the defense we will have could pressure him into some mistakes. FSU always has more talent that most teams. By the way most people said they were going to crush you guys.
