2016 Offensive outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on offense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We are breaking in a lot of first year starters, so finding a rhythm quickly and limiting our turnovers will be key.

2016 Defensive Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on defense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We are breaking in a lot of first year starters, so making sure we are sound with alignments and assignments is key. Also, creating turnovers is key.

2016 Special Teams Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on special teams. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We are looking for big things from our return game. On the other hand, we are replacing a top kicker so that will be important we get stability.
