Past is past...
I feel good about Sept 7.
I felt we matched up better against Meatchicken than UW did, in the CFP. Too bad we didn't get there, but, uhhhh past is past.
Now, we look like we've got as good as lsat season, maybe better. It remains to be seen if the WR room is all we think, but the OL should be good or better, RB likewise, so offense in general good as or better, and QB isn't remotely an issue. Defensively, the middle almost has to drop off, but edge looks better, ILB should be close or better, and DB has to be better. Kicking? Got Bert back, not sure about holder, but... Punting? From what we've been hearing, we're not going to be punting, and if we do some, just need to make sure and not get blocked.
Meatchicken lost a lot, apparently much more than we did, player-wise. And of course the Coaching turnover is huge. It's a good thing we get them early, before they have a chance to really gel.
And those are pretty much the main reasons I feel confident about the game - today. Of course we've still got weeks to go, so things can certainly change, but today? Today I've got a W next to this game.
