UF will be a scary team to face just because of how good their defense will be.
You guys lost a ton on defense though.

We lost even more on defense the year before. I think we will be somewhere between 11-1 and 4-8. But if we somehow figure out how to offense....all bets are on.

They lost 6 guys I forgot Watkins.
They have recruited ridiculously well on that side of the ball, and if anything, that is the only part of the team WM knows how to coach.
They return Cummings, Orr, Bullard, and Fowler on the DL, plus back ups Cox, Ivie, and McCalister. Ivie has been showing out in Spring. Brantley and Bostwick are coming off of red shirts and both will easily be in the DT/NT rotation this year.
And that doesn't even count someone like Holley or Willis contributing immediately.
At LB they return everyone except Powell, but he wasn't necessarily anything special at the position. He never lived up to the hype. They also add a lot of new, talented bodies that will contribute this year. Morrison, Taylor, Ball, and Davis make up a nice unit.
At DB, VH3 is probably the best in the conference, They brought in a ton of talent with Dawson and Tabor who are on campus this spring, Gorman, Maye, Neal, and Harris make up probably one of the most talented safety 2 deeps in the entire country (and gorman quielty had a very solid season last year) and Poole is the returning starter at nickel. Washington is back and will play this year too.
From a talent stand point, there is very little/no drop off. The biggest drop off I see is not having Easley.
