4) We need to do a better job protecting the ball and eliminate turnovers as much as possible
5) We will be experienced on offense with eight guys returning on the offensive side of the ball
2024 Defensive Outlook:
1) Defense will be physical and aggressive
2) Need to create turnovers and create chaos on the defensive side
3) Stop the run and force teams into 3rd and long

2024 Special Teams Outlook: We return most of our kids from last year on special teams along with having our kickers back. We did a great job last year and look to continue that and build off last season. Our special teams led to some great field positions last year.
