I might be setting myself up for disappointment

I don't think so, but if I'm wrong I'll start chugging bourbon, not namby-pamby koolaid. I just don't see what's not to like. The offense is better in every way. That part seems obvious to me. There won't be as many (any?) SportsCenter moments - so what? We don't have Gurley at RB, but I really like all 3 no 4 no 5 of our RBs. WR? Holy moley. Malcome looks like he's demanding an NFL look, Josh Reynolds, RSJ is unstoppable, Jeremy Tabuyo, Frank Iheanacho, Speedy will be back soon, and everybody's favorite white boy Boone have been fantastic, not just on receiving but blocking. And I probably left out 1 or 2. And when Cam Clear comes back full time he's going to absolutely demolish DB's.

The frequent complaint about the defense seems to be they haven't played anybody yet, and outside USC that's true. But look at last year:
SHSU: 28 points. Holy cow.
SMU: 13 points (vs. 6 this year)
Rice: 31! points (vs. 10 this year)
Even woeful UTEP scored a TD.

Lambo is perfect. (And admit it, we all bitch about it when we bring out our perfect FG kicker because we didn't manage yet another TD. That's awesome.) Kaser is booming punts again. Return guys on KOs and punts have a bunch of good returns. A TD is coming soon.

Big test coming up for our DTs and LBs at JerryWorld. I think they'll be fine, but even if they aren't perfect I think Ark gets down by 14 early and panics.

So sayeth the old curmudgeon .
