Jones is a great runner and will open up the playbook a bit more for Mullen. He has a 64% career completion rate with 7 tds/1 int and 514 yards rushing with 6 tds. Not bad.

More importantly, our schedule is relatively easy.
Bama and UGA are our toughest games, I think we split those 1-1. The atmosphere at the Swamp will be insane and Bama lost a ton of weapons, so there's a chance for the upset.
I think we go 2-1 against UK, LSU, and UT. I can see UT being a sloppy game following Bama. LSU is coming off a bad season and their QB is injured. UK will play us tough at their house.
We should beat FAU, USF, Vandy, USCe, Mizzou, FSU, Samford.

9-3 or 10-2 seems pretty achievable with this schedule.

It sounds like you are set at RB, how do things look at WR and OL to help that new QB?

The inability to run the ball at all was such a critical gap that it made what the passing game was able to do that much more impressive to me last year.

Just seems like Jones will need more help on the ground as they transition in replacements for Pitts and Toney.

Yet still beat #6 Florida with a bunch of backups and first time starters
