SMQ: Absurdly Premature Assessment Of NC State

I was so busy obsessing over the coaching search that I missed Sunday Morning Quarterback's early look at the NC State football team:

HONESTLY, WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE SCHEDULE, SMQ'S THINKING: Seven wins, automobile accessory-inspired postseason trip. Five winning years out of six under Amato's fist is good enough to get the benefit of the doubt in SMQ's estimation, but 18 points per game doesn't take you very far in the tougher ACC.

Is 7-5 the best-case scenario this season? I fear that it is.
