[QUOTE="Billygoat91, post: 837181, member: 4766"] This year feels a ton like 2015 to me. - Come in to the year with expectations that aren't lived up to - Play an absolutely brutal schedule - The thing our team is best at is shooting ourselves in the foot - Lost 1 score games (Clemson, NIU, UVA) VA Tech was 9 points but we had a chance to win. Only game that was totall out of reach was Pitt. UVA game is eerily similar to ND of 2015 where we furiously came back at the end to make it closer than it felt - QB (Sims) is making mistakes of a young QB, sometimes trying to do too much. You could tell JT knew the weight of the team was on his back all 2015 and it affected his play. - We very well may end up 3-9 again... like 2015 - Injuries have taken their toll. In 2015 it was the a-backs and b-backs, this year it is o-line and lack of depth at linebacker. -DB's underporforming. We returned a pretty mature DB group in 2015 (Milton, White, Golden) that were not in 2014 form. You make your own luck and it seems as if this team just creates bad luck. Much like last year and 2015, we are not only having to beat the other team, we are also playing against ourselves. Also, this year is an outlier of sorts with super seniors. Teams like bama and uga thrive on young talent, but Wake, Mich. State, Cincy have older rosters and have benefitted. Hopefully marginal improvement in the little things over the spring and summer will equal big improvement next year. I have my doubts, but one can hope. One thing that I am definitely going to take with a pretty big grain of salt going forward is the impact of transfers on the team. Cochran has been solid, McGowan great, but the others in the Collins' tenure have been less than impressive. We don't need to let high school recruiting stars influence us too much. For every transfer like Kyler Murray there are 10 Tate Martells. Things to be optimistic on in 2022 - Another year of experience for Sims under his belt - Running back room getting deeper - Highly-touted receiver recruits may emerge from the pack - Hopefully a new defensive scheme (PLEASE!!!!) Things that terrify me about 2022 -What in the world are we going to do about line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball? -What can we do to get impactful linebacker play? (with the exception of Charlie Thomas, that dude is awesome) -Why do we have a TE position if they do absolutely nothing on the field? I understand we have been hit by injuries there this year but that position has been invisible -Will our offensive line ever gel? -How much is Collins contributing to pollution with the amout of Waffle House cups he uses? Was that discussed in Glasgow this week? [/QUOTE]
