So I had a little free time and ended up watching a replay of their spring game. I came away with one big observation. Their secondary might actually be worse this year. Yeah they are tough in the front 7 but there were holes all over the secondary. We saw this in the championship game, but they really don't look good in man to man situations.
Reading the sports writers, all of them were drooling over Tua and the new OC.
But if it was ANY other school, they would be challenging on how the defence could be so bad. I think you're right. I would think the offence would have to improve this year (especially with Lane mailing it in at the end of the year), but not to the extent the writers are saying.
