[QUOTE="AE 87, post: 54368, member: 195"] Ok, this seems like an overly emotional response. Who's predicting us to go 14-0? What's the point in that reaction? It still seems to me that you are confusing the words "realistic" and "pessimistic." Our incoming QB has as much time in the system as last year's. We have lots of Abacks who have shown they can play and a very good Bback returning. Yes, the OL will have new starters but it's not like they're asked to replace perfection. CPJs offense has been fairly consistent with 2013 being the second worse of 6 years. CPJ has said that he expects our O to be as good or better this year. So, expecting the 2014 offense to be worse than 2013 is pessimistic not realistic imo. DEs are a question mark, but that doesn't mean they'll be horrible. Our D was not great last year on the whole, expecting them to be the same or a bit better this year is not expecting a whole lot. Expecting them to be worse is pessimistic not realistic, imo. So, if we're not worse this year than last, we shouldn't expect to lose six games after replacing byu with tulane, realistically. Also, to clarify, I did not compare this squad to the 2008 squad. I mentioned 2008 only with ref to the last time we beat mia and the last time we lost to unc in response to your inconsistent logic in picking us to lose both. [/QUOTE]
