What's a OTA?
Thank god we got away from that Leach Air Raid crap. It was great that one time at LSU.
If we dont have any WRs that can separate we are gonna just be trading one problem for another. Safety is a concern. They have to be really really good in this defense. Was a big problem in 20 and an issue in 21
Are we changing the defense? Or are you speaking to the fact of all the safeties are asked to do under Arnett's defense. With the quality corners we have I was hoping we'd play 3 corners instead of 3 safeties. I'm tired of watching safeties lined up on WR's in the slot getting toasted.
I tried sneaking a peek the other day at practice but all I could see was a damn cloud of dust.
I'm not concerned with the offense. We had open downfield WRs a good bit last year, but the short crossing mesh and RB flares were better options cause they were open much quicker.
This year we have a TON of experience with good depth returning. We have road graders for an Oline. We have 4-year starter Tom Brady returning. We finally got rid of Leach's antiquated AR system. This year we'll have much more creative play calling and an unstoppable running game, all creating innumerable play action opportunities, easily opening up receivers all over the place. I can see us averaging about 40pts/game against SEC only competition, which is along the lines of what TN/Bama/GA averaged last year.
So ... Even if the safety inexperience costs the D a few too many pts in 2 or 3 or so games, we should just outscore everyone.
No excuse for less than 10-2 and probably should win SECW.
