Contrary to popular belief in the Zoo, our OL will be a strong point this year. A couple bad play calls put a spotlight on a few short yardage busts toward the end of the year, but that group should be really good for us.

Doesn't work well when you don't have any downfield passing capabilities, everyone loads the box

We are at the pumping stage. UTAH state will keep it close until we lay on some trash points. After ND we will be the best 1 loss team in the nation. After that the slide will continue.

I can't see the future but I know the past.

Other than wishful thinking, what are you basing this assumption on?

Exactly. In fact, it happens every year at multiple key positions. If not in fall camp, then early enough in the season to cost us some games.

Yep during training camp, or like the third drive of the first game.

We are well versed on how this is gonna go.

We are starting the sunshine pumping early this year i see.

How about a let's see what happens approach and not fill their young minds with thoughts of Grandeur. At this point i think it's time they earned something.

8-4/7-5. Rinse and repeat. Duh. It's an Aggie Big 3 sport. They never win anything of consequence.
I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.

3rd best OL in semi pro football? I dont buy it.

If the OL is even close to that good the team should be able yo better an 8-4 mark.
Nothing looks more foolish than tradition to those who have none.

They were a good unit last year that returns everyone plus the potential injection of 5-star freshman Lamont Rogers at right tackle if he wins the job. I assume that's where they have him for now with Zuhn at LT.

Yeah, I don't see it.

We have a great RPO quarterback... but we use him as a dropback passer and don't call RPOs.

Our top RB is coming off a bad knee injury.

Our second RB is coming off a bad leg injury.

Our third RB sucks.

Our OL is uninspring

We'd go at least 9-3 with a legit QB, if our OL doesn't suck. Last year a good QB goes 9-3 with our schedule and even middling OL & porous defense.

Jimbo was the problem when Elko was here before. Our defense was decent, our offense was the problem.
With Elko taking over the defense and the players having a year with Elko being the head coach I would be very surprised if we aren't much better on defense.
Assuming the defense is better and we have 2 qbs that look decent to me and should have improved with a year under their belts, our offense should be better which should translate into at least 9 wins. I will be happy with 9 or 10 wins.
The big unknown is always our injuries which we seem to have more devastating injuries than other teams. Have we had our starting qb on the first game still be healthy enough to be playing at the end of the season?
Typically, we are on to our second or third string qb.

Ha, we havent had a good OL since the one Sherman left us and Johnny prospered under.

Everything you said except for Moss' injury is wrong. And Moss is expected to be 100% by fall camp at the latest.

I'll go ahead and stick my neck out and say it…. I think the offense could be pretty good. I think Klein is still
Learning but his system is effective and he had an offseason to retool it with better fits at tight end and receiver .

I have no clue what to expect on defense.

If we were better we'd have a better record.

man that is just brilliant analysis.

Good argument.

1. Our QB played his first real game against LSU 2 seasons ago. He was successful with 1 play, the RPO. We run it once a game since.

2. People may say Moss is 100% but the reality is that he is WAY more likely to never play much again than he is to be 100%

3. Really, I am wrong? So you are telling me Rueben Owens played all of last season? In the last game I think he was on the field for 2-3 plays and still didn't look healthy. Owens never did much before the injury and now he is a superstar, right?

4. Really? You think I am wrong about our third RB sucking? Without looking up who the heck he is... name our third running back. Chances are good you don't even know his name. And chances are also good he will be our primary back.

5. So you are saying our OL is not uninspiring? Last season during and after EVERY SINGLE GAME the whole board was lit up with posts about our OL sucking. Are they all of a sudden going to be good? You really think they are going from the cause of our QBs problems to a solid group?


Pump that sunshine. This is a 5-7 team.
