10-2? Maybe. I see a couple games that could go either way, and likely will.
I have noticed they always, every single year, play a ridiculous OOC schedule. I know everyone's OOC schedule is soft, but theirs is absolutely 4 guaranteed wins. Actually, Boston College is a big step up for them. Might be their toughest OOC in 20 years, though for all I know BC might be in a down phase.
Anyway, agree that it sucks we don't get to repay them for last year.
Having said that...we COULD get a rematch in the game that counts. Is it likely? of course not. Possible though, at least until the season actually starts.
