The new season

[RunDMc34]

Some teams have an over abundance of talent at certain positions and dont get playing time. There are teams that have 2cnd and 3 teamers that could start anywhere given the opportunity.

Yeah i call teams like that Florida not Central Florida.

I was more just saying I dont expect us to be any better at WR than we were last year.

[unbison]

So you are saying we can look forward to lots of dropped passes

[AEBison1998]

You might be right here, because Heck was such a good player. But this might also be one of those things where the total is different than the sum of the parts. Last year we had one superstar and then it dropped off quick. Defenses could then key on Heck. If we have two or three guys who are a threat, even if none are as good as Heck, it might make things more open for everyone.

It has to be a HUGE deal to get this Haynes guy for spring football. Receiver takes time to learn the reads and get on the same page as the QB.

Hmmmm how do you know UCF didnt have that problem? Dont let the names fool you. As a matter of fact I believe UCF is the 5th largest university in the US.

Tailgating will probably be the best part of your season. Anyone want to take a bet that you get beat by Indiana State?

Tailgating and discussing 8 championships during a down year is much better than tailgating and having no championships to discuss.

Heck even UND has a championship.

I for one am excited. I think we won't necessarily have a tremendously successful year, but I think with Mertens having last year under his belt (or perhaps buried in the backyard and forgotten) he'll go into Spring and summer knowing where he has to improve and with what mindset he needs to go into high-pressure situations. As much as we lost at some key positions, we're gaining a ton too, mostly at RB imo.

I think we have the formula for a good year, all we need now is a catalyst.

I would like to think that last year is truly buried in the backyard and forgotten, but too many people insist on digging up bones and continuing to chew on them... I too am exicted and look forward to another Bison season and will continue to back the team Bohl puts on the field

[Hippy Stick]

Like, 4-7, man.

[G-city Bison Fan]

Yeah I am not quite as paranoid as the stick above, but if we go .500 I will be impressed.

[Bisonguy]

Unfortunately, I can realistically see 5-6. I hope I'm wrong.
