The season is upon us.  What do you think about this year's team?

I'll offer my 2-cents...

1. QB is a big question.  Hard to win a NC without an established QB, but Bama's done is a few times.
2. OL should be better than last year and they need to be if we are going to be able to run the ball.  We have the RBs to do that but blocking needed.
3. Receivers -- Don't know what to expect.  Could be a problem here.
4. Overall D -- I think will be better than last year.  Kevin S will be a much better game day coach.

The talk from the players coming out of camp has sounded very determined.  Sounds like the team has good leadership which was lacking last year.  Let's hope this plays out on the field.

Whadyathink??

I'm taking the "I'll believe it when I see it" approach this year.   I'd be pleasantly surprised with anything better than 10-2.  9-3 wouldn't surprise me at all.

I think if we take one game at a time and the O-line shows up and the Defensive calls are better then we should be ok. Our kicking game will win 2 ball games this year. RTR!

My two cents:

Offensive
1. QB is the question mark here. I think Milroe gets the start, but my guess is Simpson will win the job. I think he is the better passer. We just need one of them to step up and play well.
2. Running backs are solid.
3. This could be the best OL group we have had in several years.
4. Receiver have to step up. We need all of them to make plays but we need one to step up as the Alpha and one as the keep the drive alive possession receiver.

Defense
1. I think the inside LB's will be better than the last few years. D. Lawson needs to become a Rueben Foster type LB.
2. DL will be improved with good depth.
3. Secondary will not see much of a drop off even though we lost several starters from last year.
4. Pass rush will be better. Hopefully we can get it with just 4 but Steele can get creative with blitz packages if needed.
5. Kevin Steele is a big improvement as DC.

Special teams will be solid with a potential first team All-American as placekicker.

I've got my popcorn ready. If the D is much improved, which I think it will be under Steele, it can carry the O if it's not great. It can't be subpar though. Looking for an improved running game. With the talk about the O line, I believe that happens.

We'll have to wait and see what happens at QB.
