2024 Offensive Outlook: With many returners, we hope that allows us to start a lot faster then last season

2024 Defensive Outlook: We need to tackle better, limit big plays and force teams into long yardage situations.

2024 Special Teams Outlook: Need some explosive plays with our return guys this year.
