We won't be worse than Florida State so sounds about right

You mean 5th in ACC…
Domers do not get to have any real or imaginary ranking in ACC football regardless of what ESPN says

This guy is not to be trusted. He refers to UVa/NCSU in Brazil, and to Zion
Wilson of UVa as one of the 10 best transfers -- but the game was moved to Cville weeks ago now, and Wilson was ruled ineligible weeks ago, thereafter signing with the Philadelphia Eagles.

That would be pretty OK for a team coming off a 3-win season

If it works out like that I would be satisfied
But as I have said, most of the incoming talent, although impressive on paper, is young and inexperienced. I do expect much improvement but I think it will more gradual. I hope I am wrong.

I'm ok with ACC rank but 33rd is not high enough. Should be 25-28

Seeing the ACC teams ranked ahead of us gives context to the ranking
and I think a lot of us look at those teams and expect to be behind them this season. It's harder to get the context not seeing the teams making up the other 27 expected to finish ahead of us. I suspect the difference between the 25th to 33rd ranked teams is relatively slim.

Lines up with my expectations.

Probably about right, so hard to tell. Not alot of delta between #4 and #12
ACC. Alot can turn on a few key injuries, close game wins or losses momentum swings, etc. We have to play 3 of the top 5. So we might be better than someone else in conference that finishes higher.

If they crumble VTs way, could be higher. If not, I think this is close to a floor barring some bad injury luck. Nice thing is three expected to finish better, we get to play albeit all away from the friendly confines of Lane.
