As someone pointed out on the Ole Miss board, offense is built like the Sugar bowl team from Kelly’s junior year that lit up the score board every week.
Oline anchored by a consensus 1st round left tackle(Greg little instead of Tunsil) but the biggest difference is we have 4 of 5 returning starters overall so line should be really solid. Greg Little is higher rated than Tunsil.
WRs are led by 1st team all american candidate (AJ Brown instead of Laquon Treadwell) but I would take AJ over Laquon and I think we are deeper this year with DK and Lodge behind him. We have 3 WRs who could start at any school in America. Brown has already broken many Ole Miss WR records. Lodge who most consider to be our 3rd best WR actually was the best deep threat last year:
And DK is just a freak. 6 ft 4, 225 and runs a legit 4.4 dude could probably play rush DE
QB will be solid, i think Ta’amu will be a top 3 or 4 QB in the league with a good chance to be better if he improves from last year. He will be made better by how good his line and WRs are. I think Chad Kelly was one of the best QBs we’ve ever had so it’s hard to say Ta’amu will be as good as him, but ta’amu is faster.
RB, not really sure yet we have a bunch of new guys and a veteran coming back from injury so we will see.
As far as defense is concerned it’s hard to be worse than last year, so if we improve even a little I think we will be at least 6-6 with a chance to go 8-4 if LSU and Auburn suck. Basically watch our defense and RBs during the Texas Tech game. If either of them are a lot better than anticipated then we might sneak up and be decent.

That Texas Tech game is going to be fun to watch. I got Ole Miss winning 72-68

I think it is fair to say that Tunsil was usually higher than Little.
