Keeping Up With the Over-Unders
Every year, the Confidential does over-unders for each ACC school, based solely on the regular season. In 2014, we had 6 schools correctly pegged within 1/2 a win of their ultimate totals. In 2015, we improved to 7 schools correctly pegged within a 1/2 a win of their ultimate total. And now it is on to 2016. Here is a running look at the Confidential’s over-unders for 2016:
Notre Dame: 10.5 wins
Florida State: 9.5 wins
Miami: 8.5 wins
Louisville: 7.5 wins
Virginia Tech: 7.5 wins
Pitt: 7.5 wins
North Carolina State: 5.5 wins
Virginia: 5.5 wins
Boston College: 5.5 wins
Syracuse: 4.5 wins
By far, the most controversial selection was Louisville at only 7.5 wins. However, with road trips to Syracuse, Marshall, Virginia, Boston College, and Houston–it is asking a lot of the Cardinals to avoid tripping up against three of its four easiest conference games and two challenging OOC games. Meanwhile, Florida State and Clemson remain on the schedule. Notre Dame at 10.5 wins surprised some folks too, but look at who the Fighting Irish play and where. In any event, it is what it is.
Still to come: Clemson, Duke, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Wake Forest
