yeah i said it lol. i really really like this team. every team sans the 2005 usc trojans had question marks, alabama didn't know who was going to replace coopers production last year. FSU didnt' know how good Winston was going to be at QB, etc. we have question marks, but i like the answers.
lsu will be really good but won't have a QB. Alabama will be alabama but will not have a QB and will be worst at RB than they've been in years. Ole miss will have the best QB in the SEC but they lost a hell of a lot to the nfl draft and well they are about to get DP'ed
and we get all three at home. we'll win all three of those.
the game that scares me the most is miss state on the road. mullen has a really good program and we get them late in the year.
I think BB knows what he's working with hense letting Ramsey back on the team and moving Bell and Denmark to offense.. this is not the year to let players develop bell gives us the physicality we need to sustain the run game on offense and Ramsey is the missing LB we need to plug in.
we're gonna lose to TCU. we might drop one in the SEC but as long as we win those three at home we'll own any tie breakers and no one else is going undefeated. we'll play florida in the SECCG and beat them.
i don't think people realize how nasty this front 7 is going to be on defense.

You never know how a season is going to pan out, but there are some years that you know are going to be rough. No chance at being very good. This team has players all over the field and could wind up being really good.

I actually think we have a decent shot at beating TCU. They lost a lot as well.

Our offense looks to be pretty bad. Awful O line, plus a first year quarterback, plus no established running back. Hopefully the defense will carry the team this year, because scoring is gonna be difficult.

In order to win the division, we will have to take huge steps forward in both our pass defense and special teams, and hope that our offense doesn't take too much of a step back losing BA, AC, and HH. That's asking a lot.

I'm trying to keep my expectations grounded. Winning a third Bowl in a row would make me happy. On paper and with what we know, I don't see how we win more than 9 at the absolute most.

I have no idea what this team can do, but one really good thing is the areas we are weak in (OLINE and RB); just happen to be Bielemas strength. I feel we will field a solid running attack.

I'm somewhere between 6 to 10 wins for this team. We need to rebuild an offense and while the pieces are there we will probably start slow. Our defense looks better but I don't know how much better. Plus we're due someone important breaking another foot any day now.

I like what we bring back on defense in terms of experience, but our offense and kicking game scare me way too much to predict anything better than 8 wins.
I'm probably going to end up regretting this, but I'm not that worried about Austin Allen. He has a ton of experience in our system, he has valuable game experience, and Enos has proven himself to be a fantastic playcaller and capable QB developer. We should be stacked at receiver, but our TEs outside of Sprinkle are unknowns, and the offensive line is going to be a patchwork job. I'd put backfield as our biggest question mark -- can Walker stay healthy, what's Rawleigh's mental state, are the newcomers ready -- and we'll be breaking in a new fullback again if Kendrick sticks at LB.
We had arguably the worst special teams in the SEC last year and our kicking game looks to still be a mess if the Spring Game is any indication, so I fully expect us to lose at least one game because of it, as has been our M.O. the last few years.
