I think you need 7 wins to gets to a bowl (ACC rule).

wrong.

teams with 7 or more wins are considered first. if there are still more bowl invites available, those bowls may select a 6-6 team much like the independence bowl did with vpi last year.

tl;dr shut up, hansen

If you don't think BC is going to lose the UConn game in spectacular BC-fashion, you haven't been a fan of this program long enough to be making predictions.

silly domingo, the ass can't get pregnant

[angrychicken]

my mother-in-law asked me if AIDS still existed last night.

I thought that it was down to one AID, that it was civil, and that it is likely gone forever.

civil had one aid because he wasn't wealthy enough to spend on the entire regiment of magic johnson aids cure. he could afford most of it but couldn't make the last payment and therefore, still has one aid

6-6 with a bowl win against a G5 team.

first time I haven't predicted 5-7 for Addazio. I have a ton of trouble gauging how this team will do - I think that the SB nation write up for BC was along the lines of "the offense will get better because it almost has to and the defense will get worse because it almost has to, but not sure by how much for each" which isn't incredibly astute but akin to my feeling of "who knows?" There were elements of terrible coaching (that we've seen for 3 years), bad luck, and general bad timing that led to last year being 3-9 instead of 5-7 or even another 7-6 and I don't have a good sense for how to split blame between the three.

I will say this is the least excited I've been for a season with Addazio as HC.
