Apparently we are just going to stink this year and have no hope to get better I guess...

Like I've said before, I think it's interesting they're generally picked to drop off more than App State and Louisiana. We'll see.

If McCall is healthy they will be in the hunt for the east. They will need some breaks to go their way. But they are absolutely a very solid team. They just have a generational QB for their program right now.

That's the thing. It's not like he's The Man on a team full of slugs. There has been good talent around him and he has been the best qb in the league. It's a recipe for success. The trick is what happens next?
Same with us. Everyone wanted to replace Levi while he was winning. Now he's gone and we will have to learn to win without him.

Can make the case that CCU has lost more talent than anyone else except maybe Louisiana, (thanks Napier), the easier schedule will help, but like APP, they have a lot of question marks, and are going to need some of the “pups” to step up in a big way

Coastal definitely lost a ton of experience. But we still had a couple of guys that were recruited to an FCS team. They've said that the new players are more talented. But will that compensate for a lack of experience?

I still think App is the team to beat. LA and Coastal will have growing pains early. Troy looks very solid on D. Marshall can compete if the QB plays solid and our OL stays healthy. Should be a fun and interesting season.
