Unless you think Hunter is going to turn us into an offensive juggernaut, I don't see it. We will be as bad or worse at running back. Is anybody excited about Marlin Lane?  Same offensive line.  Maybe the OL will suddenly learn how to run block, I dunno.     I think we play good enough D to win, so despite the loss of our best defensive player, I'm not worried about that side of the ball.  Right now, best case scenarip is 7-5.

We return 18 starters, the schedule gets MUCH easier, and hopefully we won't get bit by the injury bug again.  I expect at least 9 wins, including 5 in the SEC.  If we can't do that, it'll be time to start over. Again.

Schedule is subject to change. We should add Missouri and drop either Arkansas or msu. Hopefully msu.

In any case, we'll still drop LSU.  We'll also get bammer (who loses a TON) at home, as well as UF.  Our conference schedule this year was as tough as it could have possibly been, as we drew all three of the top teams from the West and had to go to the Swamp.  Doesn't get much worse than that.  But next year, there are no excuses.  Not schedule, not talent, not depth, not youth.  As far as I'm concerned, this staff has to produce or go.  And I really hope they produce.  I like Dooley, and I'm fizzleing sick and tired of coaching searches every other year.
