Ok, so looks like another inflated reputation for a team that has yet to prove anything. They selected Clemson to lose to UNC in 2012.... It is over once we take the field. OVER!

They're gonna be pretty good this year

Guessing them, Duke, and Miami will battle it out for the top spot in the Coastal. I can't see VT's offense improving enough to win more than 8 games, although their defense will be good enough to keep them in a lot of games.

If everyone keeps calling UNC the "surprise contender," then

doesn't that mean it's not a surprise if they do well?

It seems like an annual ritual to proclaim unc a "contender"

and to be much improved. But every year, they struggle to fulfill a standing invite to the Belk Bowl....and this year's tarhole squad seems less talented than in recent years past. Plus, they have a small distraction on campus again (NCAA investigators) Plus they may actually have to be attending classes to stay eligible--a backlash of the horrific academic fraud claims voiced by media, politicians and taxpayers across the state.
unc MAY be improved, but I'll wait to see it in person before agreeing.....and their early schedule won't help their claim of legitimacy much either.

Surprise contender last 3 years, but have yet to step up. I agree with the other posts. To many distractions on campus with NCAA and academic eligibility. No firm starter at multiple positions, including QB. Their team is young and I'll believe it when I see it.

all of their focus on Clemson during fall practice and the first month of the season with that weak early out-of-conference schedule.

Good luck with that focus. They could focus a year and get beat by the teams we have now.

UNC can focus all they want on Clemson. It won't help because we are more talented and just way better. They are not in our class.

Feel sorry for the smurfs

They'll face a 3-0 or 2-1 Clemson team. 3-0 means a top 5 team who will keep rolling or 2-1 means a team that got beat by FSU and is looking for revenge. (In case you can't tell i don't see a loss to UGA).
Either way, bring on these African American Studies majoring, cheating SOB's.
