For all our hope for a conference championship and NY6 bowl we have to step back and look at what this team is.
New starters at QB, 2 RB, WR, 2 OL, 2 DT, DE, MLB, S, Nickel, P, K.
We’re replacing 14 of 24 starters. Are we really a team reloading as opposed to rebuilding?
Throw in the freshman contributing at all levels which means a lack of meaningful contributors in the sophomore and junior classes and no one should be shocked if this team loses 3-4 games down the stretch. Tulsa included. Short week with back to back road games. Then tough road games at Houston, Cincinnati and Temple. Finishing with the tinmen at home. I think we can win every game left but I would not be surprised to lose a few either.
If somehow this team wins the conference Charlie would have done a great coaching job. None of the above will stop me from yelling at TV and demanding Sterling Gilbert be fired every game.
