2020 Outlook:

Offense: With only 1 returning starter it will be a whole new look on offense for us this year. I really think we have some skill players that could have great seasons. For us it will be how fast can our Offensive Line come together and play consistent football.

Defense: 2 starters back but I feel like we have a lot of size and speed on defense which will help us make up for our lack of experience.

Special Team: We have a very good place kicker, snapper, and holder coming back which should make our kicking game successful. Also we have plenty of speedy guys we can use to give us an edge on special teams.
