A few short days until Fall camp cranks up, and we start getting reports and pics from practices, and it begins to move in the Haynes Underwear. Actually, I'm more of a Duluth Trading Buck Naked Boxer Briefs guy. Order you a pair. You'll thank me later.
What’s your prediction for the win total? Good or bad, what’s your reasoning? And what player do you see bustin’ loose? Kind of like Eugene “Let’s Work” Asante came out of nowhere last year.
Win Total: 9
I’m not going down the schedule and predicting each game. The reasoning is simple. We are better in so many places with this program, starting with an overall upgrade to the coaching staff. I think most believe that, while totally inexperienced, we finally have the athletes at receiver we’ve been missing forever. The O-line should be much better with a ton of experience. Not great. Certainly not dominating. But better than they’ve been in maybe 6-7 years. I think we are solid defensively from front to back, but the difference to me will be that I believe we have players who can finally get around the edge and consistently pressure the QB. Haven’t had that since Carl Lawson.
Plus, think about the fact that we won 6 games, while monkey-humping a couple of others away, including Bama, with that rag tag bunch last year. 8-9 wins is a lock.
Speaking of coming off the edge, Jalen McLeod is my breakout player. Not that he wasn’t solid last year. I think he had 5 sacks. But he’s fast and a good bit bigger this season. I also read a piece on him and how focused he is on kicking it up a notch and making it to the Show.
Whatcha’ got? Why you gots it, and who ya’ got?
