A bit early since we don't know all the Spring Portal additions yet, but what are people thinking?

I'm thinking we're actually going to be better but I'm afraid it won't show up in the win column. Better, more balanced football that can win in the trenches. More NFL prospects. But I don't know if we have guys who can break the script and change outcomes of games for us like we had with 2 & 12. So, 8 or 9 wins again but showing a lot of program progression with that.

i see this as a 5-7 win team (not counting the bowl game, if we get there). I just feel like we lost too much last year and its a reloading year and there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with that.
 
Losing Shedeur and Travis will be tough to overcome.

Salter will open up this offense with his legs, Juju will play meaningful snaps as well.

RBs have some question marks, but Faulk didnt come here to coach a bottom of the barrel running game. Tons of potential in this room. Watchout for Kam Mickell ;-)

Wr group looks to be the most talented we've had since 94. Williams, Omarion and Drelon, Sincere, the freshmen...damn good!

Building the trenches on both sides of the ball has been a massive development.

LBs, like RBs, have potential but a lot of unknowns...would love to see another transfer show up.

McKiney actually profiles to be a better lock down Man corner than Travis, and 1 more year of development with Hodge and Hood makes for a formidable corner group.

Safety group is solid but lacks depth.

I've got 10 wins including the bowl game.
 
If Salter is QB - 9/10 wins regular season

If Juju is QB - 7/8 wins regular season.
 
I really think this season hinges on Salters ability to throw the ball accurately and consistently. The receiver room with the addition of sincere brown is STACKED. Believe it or not im optimistic about the line this year lol. But really can Salter throw the damn ball or not. Defense gonna ball.

Do you have concerns about the defensive line? I think it's among our strongest units this season.

I have high hopes for both lines which is why I say the floor is 8 wins despite having lost so much talent at the skill positions. To achieve 8 wins these lines will need to dominate every week and I think they will. If the new skill position players light it up we could be talking about the CFP

Until I see a competent OL opening up holes in the running game and giving the QB more than 2 seconds before he has to scramble or get rid of the ball, I'd be happy with a winning record on the season.

If the OL is average, we could make some noise.

Seaton is not average. So we’re at least at 1 for 5 so far.
 
HCDS said this will be a better team than last year's. Floor is 8 wins, and I'm w/ Lama on the conference championship.

over the last two years, there's been lots of posts about wanting to see how Sanders coaches w/out his kids on the team. I'm excited to see that as well.
 
I see 7-9 wins, depending on the breaks. The D is very solid, even with Hunter leaving. The OL is about the same, maybe a tad better. No SS2 will make the O less dynamic. I do think it might be more consistent if Salter or JuJu can run the O. With some balance, the O actually might be close to as productive as last year as the WR room is loaded. If the OL makes a leap, this could be a very good team.

I think it is fair to expect the offensive line to make a leap. You’re bringing in an all conference D1 player that will either play right tackle or left guard. That is a big upgrade by itself. You can also expect Seaton to make a big leap in year two. If Cash starts you can expect a year two bump from him as well (to the level of a serviceable center). That said I actually think competition will have cash with the two’s. Those changes by themselves should result in a vastly superior offensive line.
