Thought it would be fun while the kool aid is still flowing to give some predictions on the season.

Lanning will have 3,600 all purpose yards this season

My bold prediction-and one I hope doesn't come true- is that Mike Warren will not lead us in rushing this season....

Tho offensive line will give up less then 25 sacks. Last year they gave up 43.
They gave up 43?! Is this real life? Wow that's horrible. There is no way this years line gives up more than that. I don't know the stats but that has to be one of the worst in the NCAA, easily.

I agree 43 is a Huge Number...That just shows how Incompetent Rhoads and his Staff were....easily the worst HC and Staff in the Big XII

Bold prediction is that Lanning throws for 2800, Warren rushes for 1700, and Lazard catches for 1050. I think if we can get to that we will be doing pretty darn good.

I'll say that the oline doesn't lose any starters for more than 1 game at a time this year...so no extended injuries. The boldest of bold.

I believe they ranked 126 out of 128 so yeah bad. Part of that was Sam not letting go of the ball but the line was bad so it may not be a bad thing most of them are replaced.

I still think Philbert could be our best lineman. He only played about 1/2 of each game because Rhoads felt he had to play Dagel as a senior.

If Jacob Park sees any significant playing time, we will have a QB controversy. His arm is that good.

Demond Tucker snaps someone in half.

I think the over/under on dudes snapped in half by Tucker is 7.5, so that's not very bold.

My prediction is that Lazard does not lead the team in receptions.

I agree on Philbert. I think this OL will be very good in the run game. I like Scoggins too.
