[QUOTE="Jean-Baptiste Rochambeau, post: 54362, member: 1017"] I want us to be 14-0, and I want to win the Powerball Lottery, too. You cannot seriously be comparing our squad today to our squad of 2008 . Our offense, the acknowledged strength, has several question marks. Quarterback is inexperienced, and unsettled as of today. There is no gamebreaking running back, and we are not even sure we can replace last year's best A back with one that is just as good. Same at B-back. Wide-out may be a bright spot, unless we don't throw much. Newsflash, historically, we don't throw much. The offensive line is bigger, but has an aggregate of 39 starts returning. Shaq Mason has 26 of those. There will be 3 new starters up front. If you are telling me that every second teamer from last year is coming in and be an improvement over last year's starters, I'm good with that. That is not what usually happens, though. Defense might be on the upswing, but as of today we really don't know. We know Attaochu is gone and not replaced. We know Gotsis is back, and every other DL is a question mark. If we are improved it will be a huge help and Roof and Pelton will look like world beaters. We are very young on the back seven, but there is talent on the two deep there. Realistically, though, with this particular coach, we will still be looking to outscore the other guys rather than hold them to 18 or 20 points. We don't have a defense that can do that yet, and we may not have an offense that is going to put up the 400+ points needed to win a lot of games. [/QUOTE]
