Connor Wood

Over, I think he hits 25 passing TDs and 3 rushing TDs. Our defense will still probably be pretty bad, so we'll get a lot of offensive possessions again. I think Connor will be the 4th best QB in the PAC-12 this year, and set us himself up be top QB for the PAC-12 in 2014, if Mariota and Hundley leave.
 
Over. That's not even two per game on average. Especially after hearing MM's comments about stretching the field and going for the big play. This isn't an offense that's built to slog down the field and score a lot of touchdowns from two yards out.

You have 45 touchdowns between Wood and Powell...I think you are a tad optimistic. That's 22.5ppg between them. I'd love to see it but that would be two historically great seasons from those two.
 
Based on last season, I predict under; and a td/int ratio < 1. :sad1:

I hope I'm wrong, but don't think I will be. This is going to be a very tough season for the whole team. We are at least a year from respectability.

Good point. In looking at SJSU's offense last year, Fales (QB - 33) and Eskridge (RB - 11) combined for 44 TDs combined or 25.6ppg (if my math is right :lol:), SJSU's offense as a whole averaged 34.8ppg last year and I don't roughly a 20ppg improvement in one year. SJSU's leading WR Grigsby had 9 TDs last year, I expect PRich to have right around there, maybe a couple more since he will be our clear #1 target when he is healthy. After thinking about it, I think Powell has a better year on the ground but less TDs due to our offense being more passing centered but I still think Wood throws for ~25 (give or take two or three).

I expect our offense to score 27-28ppg this year due to having PRich back and a OC who knows what he is doing and has produced results in year one, I'm also pretty optimistic in Wood having a good season under the new coaching staff. Wood's confidence will either help or hurt the whole offense if he is seen as the team leader, which that's how it seems to be.

fify, not a believer, yet
 
With all the changes at QB, I'm going under; Sefo or Jordan may play a bigger role on offense this year.
 
Big vote of confidence from P-Rich. If P-Rich is buying into the guy, I think I can too.

"You know, I think his growth is what is really boosting this whole team, our offense especially, but our whole team," Richardson said. "He has just grown up so much and people are starting to respect him more."I keep telling people it's different when you don't feel pressure, people breathing down your neck. Connor is an older guy now. So he kind of feels like he has to lead the pack. Him feeling like that has made him step up. It's helped out chemistry on offense, which has helped our chemistry with him throwing me the ball.
"We score a lot every day. Every day we score a lot."

New O/U is 27 TD passes. Place your bet.

(Wood has 6 TD passes through two games)
 
I am not going to place a number on any of these until we know what is happening with our 12th game. If we don't have it, that changes everything. If we have it, and it is against a weaker team, that changes everything too.
