2023 Offensive Outlook: The new players stepping in the O-line are seniors with excellent strength and that strength will have to make up for a lack of experience early. The skill players are play makers. The QB has a year under his belt and more will be put on his shoulders this year.
2023 Defensive Outlook: This could be one of our fastest groups across the board. There are a lot of linebacker types running around out there.
2023 Special Teams Outlook: We are expecting our returning K/P to have an impact on change of field position plays. He will also take over the place kicking duties with high expectations. The returners can make plays every time they touch the ball.
