I do think some of those chances are too low and some too high, but those are ESPN's predictions.<br /><br />if our games against Syr, NCSU, UConn and Wake are 50%, 40%, 50% and 60%, we still project to just 2 more win.mod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-86522659727941363482016-10-05T16:01:12.971-04:002016-10-05T16:01:12.971-04:00Mod - don't you think the chances of victory o...Mod - don't you think the chances of victory over NCSU (20.5%) and WF (35%) are a little low?<br /><br />El Miz - I like this ..............."Addazio and his bullying, [coach like a coward] coaching style."<br /><br />We ask a lot of our players when they have to overcome the #3 team in the country that is on the hunt for the national championship - and also they have to overcome their own coach!<br /><br />JBQ - yes, it sure is bleak.<br /><br />We need a tougher and more interesting schedule. Yes, we'll go to Ohio State; yes, we'll go to Michigan; yes, we'll go to Penn State, Tennessee, Stanford, Texas, Texas A & M, USC, etc. just like we used to do.<br /><br />Hell, let's go back to WVU and Maryland and Rutgers and any P5 team we can get BYU, Boise State, etc.<br /><br />If I ever hear of another Howard or Wagner, I will personally lead the ouster charge to Bates' doorway. DeFilldicko and Bates have ruined our schedule, and reputation, and our HC's and their OC's have ruined our ability to compete - and alienated our fans.<br /><br />You can't make this sh@! up.<br /><br />Let's go BC players - beat Clemson!!! :-)Big Jack Krackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12202172743722727956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-23968316413099957752016-10-05T15:15:01.238-04:002016-10-05T15:15:01.238-04:00losing to Clemson - by 1 point or 48 points - is...losing to Clemson - by 1 point or 48 points - is expected.<br /><br />losing to Syracuse, is a big deal. It means we are again historically bad and against the worst team in the ACC. presently Syracuse has the worst (#128) defense in FBS. Worst defense in ACC.<br /><br />but they have the #4 offense in ACC and #1 passing attack in ACC.<br /><br /><br />If we lose to Syr, there is a likelihood we go 0-8 in ACC.mod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-55846033510453408732016-10-05T14:39:25.345-04:002016-10-05T14:39:25.345-04:00i wonder if only 1 more W this year secures Addazi...i wonder if only 1 more W this year secures Addazio AND Bates's termination. i think there are decent odds we don't win any other games. based on the Va Tech game, i think the players are very close to quitting on Addazio and his bullying, coach like a coward coaching style. he still can't control his emotions, and i can only imagine it is zero fun playing for a guy who flies off the handle at a slight mistake, doesn't put you in a position to win, and coaches like a coward against any legitimate program. if Clemson demolishes us, and we subsequently lose to Cuse, i think Addazio is done.<br /><br />is the BC AD job more compelling if we fire Addazio - so any AD candidates know they'll be able to pick "their guy" to be the football HC?EL MIZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12042895353703675136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-89284006762283247022016-10-05T12:26:09.626-04:002016-10-05T12:26:09.626-04:00bce91, true. any bowl is a stretch this year.
w...bce91, true. any bowl is a stretch this year.<br /><br />we need to beat 3 of the following UConn. Syracuse, Wake. NCSU.<br /><br />we are not beating Clemson. FSU. L'ville.<br /><br />if you look at ESPn, the present the percent chance of winning games.<br /><br />for BC's schedule (clem, Syr, NCSU, L, FSU, UConn, Wake), the chance's of winning are (in order) 8.1%, 67% 20.5%, 6.1%, 4.8%, 72.6% and 35%.<br /><br />Turning those into decimals, and using the sum of the percentage approach, gets you 2.1<br /><br />that means BC is most likely to win 2 more games (Syr and UConn) and be 5-7. No bowl<br /><br />But I have serious doubts about Syr. Syr Defense is horrible (so is our O), but their offense can sling the ball. How good is our D - we gave up nearly 500 yards to VT. UConn might be our most evenly match opponent this year. How's that for sucking.
