So basically

5 of Stanzi's 20 interceptions that year, were in the Indiana game.

My only concern with the O is depth on the line and of course like most teams qb. If they can't field an extremely proficient offense with the guys we have I will be severely disappointed.
This offense should be able to hang with anybody in the nation. Hopefully all our new coaches are full of energy, because we need to push them all, but I would be more at ease knowing the second team is really fighting for the starting roles.

The defense is a little scary. By a little I mean maybe a 50/50 chance of being in the top half of the big. That is nothing to brag about. Fact that is scary. We have some pieces, but so many holes. If our defense can reload, it speaks volumes about the coaches and the players.
Because I don't think we have ever started a year with so much to do and fill on that side of the ball.

Your only concern is depth on the line? What about our receiver group? Basically all new RBS. This offense finished 116th out of 129 teams in the nation last year, and you think we should be able to hang with anyone in the nation? The talent simply is not there to do so, and if it was, I really don't think we have a coaching staff that is capable of taking advantage of it.

It is funny that all of the people that are excited about the offense must only be remembering the Ohio State game......and have forgotten about Wisconsin, Purdue, Mich St. It is the same offense as last year minus key pieces, I don't see them being better than last year. The defense may be better. I am going with 7-5 and a bowl win.

This. We lose our center, and the one and only playmaker on the entire team, but people think the offense is going to take a big step forward. Not gonna happen, and don't forget we still have the same clueless coaching staff.

I do.
I think we can put up points on anyone.
I know that we can.
Depth?
Defense? Like I said I'll be pleasantly surprised if they can beat the averages by any meaningful amount.

The only thing I expect from the Iowa offense excuses.

Green on th OL
We lost MVB
We lost Wadley
Injuries
Brian still learning on the job.

If we have to rely on the offense to win games, especially over the last decade, we’ll win 4 games
