They have no depth on an already bad defense, and lost their best players from last year as well.
That offense HAS to be elite, or else they are screwed. Their receivers are great, but I think Wilkins is a bigger loss than they realize (they think Scottie Phillips is the second coming of Deuce but I just don’t see it at all), and I’m not sure Ta’amu can be any better than he was for them last year. I think he might take a step back this year.
They are a really interesting team. I personally think they have enough talent to win 6-7 games, but many of their more winnable SEC games are on the road. They are banking on wins in Little Rock and Nashville, but their history with those two teams suggests they could easily lose to both of them. That Texas Tech game in Week 1 is huge for them. Lose that game and then lose in Little Rock later, this might be a 3-4 win team. But if they win one or both of those, I think they’ll be fairly decent, although there is zero excuse for us to lose to them this year.
