Yes, the simple answer is everyone. But for most Tech fans, a 7-8 win (pre-bowl) season in 2018 with greater things to come in 2019 would be acceptable. That does't count a bowl, which we would all expect to win, so that would put us at 8-5 or 9-4 after the bowl.
Here's how I have divided it up:

Out of our first three games, we need a minimum of 2 wins--I personally believe we get three wins.
By this time, I believe our QB, whoever he/she is will be in a reasonable groove. ( I didn't want this to appear sexist.)

Now, dividing the conference schedule up into bite size segments:

W V, Ok St and OU--we need at least one win from this group

TCU, K St and UT--we need at least one win (I think we might get 2 and conceivably three from here

I St, KU and Baylor-- 3 wins--gotta have these

So, if you can follow my strange diagram and logic, I believe 7 pre-bowl wins is very doable, and if our QB is clicking our our receivers can catch the ball and we remain healthy in areas where we are thinnest, 8-9 pre-bowl games is within reach.

So, it's July and I make no excuses. Please pass the coolaid. I prefer grape

Whatcha got?
