ODU,UNM,Duke,Navy,UVA,Syracuse are all winnable. They typically play Va Tech and ND well. Ga Tech and Miami are tough, and UNC is a toss up. 8 may be tough, but I think this team is better than last year. I don't think we should dismiss that FSU may be a championship contender. Pitt had their work cut out for them, but it's all have they adjust and respond.

I'll take 6 and a bowl game. I expect 8 next year.

I know sometimes I'm overly optimistic about my Nittany Lions and my predictions are a little unrealistic. Plus I really do want to see Pitt win football games in the ACC but a true freshman QB just whipped it around the field in his very first game, on the road, against your defense. Think what Boyd is going to do. Maybe FSU is that good but more realistically I tend to think Pitt isn't a good team. Lets face it, if there was a QB (outside of OD) on your entire schedule that I would have picked to have a bad game this year against you, it would have been last week.

Again, Pitt is anywhere from 5-8 wins in my opinion. I'm my saying they will win 8. They can win 8. But they can also lose 7. I was encouraged by the offense in the first quarter, and I think the defense isn't as bad as they played

Winston was a 5 star, and a redshirt, and perhaps the most hyped Freshman in the country. I expected him to be good. We saw what a redshirt freshman did last year, and Winston is physically better than Manziel.

Once again, maybe he will be the next Johnny Football or better but more than likely Pitt doesn't have an athletic enough defense this year to compete with quality opponents.

I just don't see them having to see that kind of talent the rest of the season. Notre Dame and Miami are the next best teams they will see, and I'd say they are a tier below FSU.

Winston is a better qb than the "anti-Tebow", and twice the athlete. He also was lead off hitter, center fielder for baseball team and he pitches. I'll lay a $1.99 ticket that he gets more heisman votes than the punk in Texas
