Love this team.  Most complete team since 2016 - the one that should have made the playoffs (curse you Kinnick and OSU refs!)

I think the offense has huge upside, obviously - talent everywhere surrounding a confident, experienced QB.

As most agree, it seems we have 2 holes - a second lock down corner (I think Ambry can be the guy if he makes it back early enough). I am a bit surprised we haven’t heard “Dax Hill jumps over goalposts from seated position on the 10 yard line” hype from camp - but he did just arrive, and freshman, and etc.... Hoping he can be the slot stopper by the time we see teams that can actually “do forward pass good”

But our biggest fear, as discussed in the previews, is unfortunately what separates national title contenders from conference championship contenders- a dominant front 4. We’re solid on the outside and can do a lot of damage with creative Uche and Hudson blitz packages. Unfortunately, we don’t have a Brandon Graham or Mo Hurst on this team.  I don’t think we will be Swiss cheese up the middle, but unless Dwumfour heals up quickly And lives up to Hurstian hype, we won’t have the pass rush or generate enough negative run plays to dictate on defense.

Top 15 defense? Probably, it’s Don Brown after all.  Good enough to win the B1G, probably, especially if Fields isn’t Haskins 2.0. Good enough to beat Bama and Clemson....I cant see it.
