Even if the Hoos only win 2 of those then they go 7 and 5 and bowling again. Depending on new talent developing and injuries, it is reasonable to go as high as 9 and 3, but will not be in contention for acc division title either way.

You do have an incredibly easy non-conference schedule this year with Richmond, Liberty, Ohio, and Indiana. With the way Virginia looked the last half of the season though, I have a hard time seeing player development allowing for a 9-3 year, but who knows.

From a UVA fan perspective, who do you include in the "likely 5 wins" outside of the three G5/FCS opponents? IU and UNC?

I'm guessing you have Miami and Virginia Tech among the losses. Who's the 3rd likely loss from your perspective? At NC State?

I think the other two likely wins are Pitt and UNC which are at our home field. Plus they are in the back half of the season and rookies should be seasoned enough to play well by then, and hopefully no serious holes due to injuries at that point. Yes, the 3rd likely loss is probably NC State.
