Thanks for the heads-up. I wasn't expecting the schedule until February. B-)

We will need to start fast in September when we start the season with our four out-of-conference games. 3-1 OOC is desirable. October will be a critical month as all three games are winnable:

Oct 6 - bye week
Oct 13 - @ GT
Oct 20 - Virginia
Oct 27 - @ Pitt

Playing GT the week after our bye week is good as we get extra time to prepare our triple option defense.

Duke earns a "B+" for their 2018 season from USA Today.
Remember that grades are subject to how each team was predicated to fare back in August. For example, Baylor finishing 7-6 is different than Miami (Fla.) doing the same, since the Bears were coming off a 1-11 season and Miami was predicted to contend for a conference championship and New Year's Six bowl berth. Baylor drew an A- while the Hurricanes earned a D+ grade.
