2024 RU Game by Game Predictions

[RUGuitarMan]

I know there is usually a preseason thread for game by game predictions. I haven’t seen one as of yet, so I will offer my opinion. I’m realistically optimistic:

Howard W
Akron W
@ VT. W
Wash. W
@Neb. L
Wisc. L
UCLA. W
@USC. L
Minn. W
@ MD L
Illinois. W
@MSU. W

8-4. Guaranteed Rate Bowl vs Texas Tech

I'd hold off on a Nebraska prediction until I see Raiola play at least 1 college game.

I understand he is a freshman but was rated at #2 QB and a top 10 player nationally. The B1G Network crew who have seen him seemed impressed, elite arm talent and big presence on the field. I think the game @Neb will be one of the 2 or 3 toughest this year.

I know people call me a football hater, but I can just as easily see us going 4-8 as I can 8-4.

Also I would not penciled in a L to Wisconsin in our building.
They lost a lot of players.

Taking the overly optimistic approach (10-2) , until I see how the team looks when they go to Blacksburg
I feel VT has a good chance to be a good team because of the way they ended 2023
5-3 in their last 8 regular season games with losses to FSU, Louisville and NCS
Beating a pretty good Tulane ( 11-3>8-0 AAC) team in The Military Bowl 41-20
