Looking at the schedule, and if we play, I'm thinking we'd be lucky to go...
- Thread starter gr8spur
- Start date
8 is possible if:
The D is legit
We can collect 1st downs (Mr. Lloyd)
Hilinski progresses a bit and doesn't have to play hurt in 9 games
We replace our punter
6 sounds more like reality

Depressing is "hoping" for a 7-5 year. Thanks Mr. Tanner.
Good news for all the nay sayers...because of the irresponsibility of the majority of Americans all fall sports will be postponed. So we won't have to worry about wins and losses this year. 
I actually feel this way. It will be a good fall for bass fishing.Good news for all the nay sayers...because of the irresponsibility of the majority of Americans all fall sports will be postponed. So we won't have to worry about wins and losses this year.

My liver and my respiratory system would benefit from this..
I don't know...my liver has taken a beaten over the last 3 months. I'm afraid it will make me drink more
I do wish I were as optimistic as you. Yes, on paper our defense looks like it has potential. And we have a new OC. And a QB that will hopefully be healthier, and more experienced. But I still think 7-5 is the ceiling. If Spurrier was at the helm, I would be hoping for more. But I still expect 6-6.
Muschamp needs a 7-5 record, but losing to Clemson again will be the nail in the coffin for him...
Bottom line, Muschamp needs to beat Clemson if he has plans to expand his Lake Murray House...

On the field coaching has always been the issue regarding Muschamp. I may be in the minority here, BUT: if we have a typical Muschamp season in his 5th season, he will be done, IMHO.
I highly doubt this offense can score 35-38 points a game.
I've been a die-hard fan since we played with a "Loaded 38." But my level of excitement right now matches the end of Sparky and Scott's hand at the helm. I sure want to love football again. If we struggle this year, I'm done giving CWM another chance. He's got to finish 7-5, or better, to give this lifelong fan any lingering hope.
Once again, we are depending on a true freshman to save us.
35 ppg would be the highest scoring offense in program history just as a reference point.

I believe both the offense and defense will be better. We managed to beat the, then #2, in the country at their place. So, if we can manage one win over TN, FL, GA , T AM or Clemson we might get to 8 wins. I am convinced our GA win last season was Devine intervention. There is no other explanation. If we win 8 or 7 even, Will will keep his job. A losing season should result in him losing his job. 6 wins, it could go either way. The natives will become real restless at 6. He might see a few moving vans coming to his place. If they keep him with 6 wins, I believe it might be a financial reason. COVID19 might be enough reason to give him another year. 9 wins will probably result in an extended contract.
There is ZERO reason for Will to get any further contract extensions regardless of record this year. No one is coming for him and if they do so be it. He needs multiple years of positive seasons before any extension is discussed. If tanner does this he needs to be gone immediately
I’ve been wearing an astronaut suit since March so don’t blame this on me.Good news for all the nay sayers...because of the irresponsibility of the majority of Americans all fall sports will be postponed. So we won't have to worry about wins and losses this year.
If ANY team scores 35-38 a game, I'd expect they'd be an 8 win team minimum.
That tells you our recruiter hasn’t been all that

As long as we give up half a hundred
we could only score 15 on app state. 6 on Texas a and m and 3 on Clemson last year. Unless we have all star fr ready to play we in trouble. Otherwise we have them same players that got trucked by those 3 teams. Don’t expect much of a different result

But, don't you think in Year 5 of the program, we need to make that "modest" production? The 4 college football participants averaged 48, 46, 43 and 42. The top 17 scoring offenses averaged at least 35 points per game. College football has evolved to an offense-first game. If Carolina is to ever rise above its current state of mediocrity in today's college football, we are going to have to make the leap on the offensive side of the ball. If Muschamp keeps his fingerprints off the offense, I believe we have the personnel to succeed.
Indeed. I went Friday morning and had 12 by 10:30. I've had good numbers but no big'uns this year. My biggest was maybe 3.5 lb. I'm due.
May I give you a reason? Lengths of contracts show recruits and their parents the likelihood of a coach and his staffs longevity. Other schools’ recruiters will eat you for lunch when the recruit thinks their recruiter is leaving. Remember when Spurrier talked about retirement? I think we lost at least five commitments who are now playing in the NFL. So there is at least one more than ZERO.
Must mean 35-38 in all combined Conference games . That’s more Muschamp’s speed
I like your way of thinking! And agree of what could be.
Normally, I'd agree. But other recruiters are already eating us for lunch. Muschamp has nothing he can realistically sell to recruits because everyone knows he's a lame duck coach.
Five or six. That should be enough for a pink slip but $13,500,000 buyout, Covid and Tanner as AD probably enough to let Muschamp stay a another year.
I don’t think 8 is possible even with your stated ifs occur. We have no WRs, so unless someone comes out of nowhere and establishes themselves as a play maker... Our offense is not going to move the ball.
We will not be playing this year anyway so..
There’s certainly a lot of room for a handful of men to step up and into respective rolls at WR......I have admitted in some previous posts my concerns & Shi becomes our defacto #1, A healthy OTre could validate this, and we may have to play a TE or two in the slot & outside. Vann & Legett are going to get a shot & I like Mike Wyman as new blood. There’s enough guys to do it, just will we have 3or4 reliable go to dudes or are we going to struggle with 1&1/2.
OTre was the one I had hoped coming in would be our next great WR due to his size. Hopefully he can recover quickly. Most of the time folks coming off injury takes about half a year to get back to where you were. Where he was isn’t where we need him to be. We need a true go to that you can throw it up with him covered and he snatches it out of the air
