It all depends on the OL's run blocking. It they suck again it's going to be a roller coaster.
Have you ever rode a woody?

Exactly. TE is one of those spots you can work around easily especially with all the WRs on our team.I can understand depth concerns at some places, but if another person mentions TE depth as an issue, I'm going to lose my god**** mind. How many teams play with more than one TE or a TE at all anymore? Why do we need a 3 deep at TE? If Herndon goes down, either use another OL for blocking or turn it into 4 wide. Our season does not ride or die on the TE position. Sorry - I just can't handle that as a reason why we can't win 10 games
Don't understand how people on here feel like this is the year there should be no excuses. LAST YEAR was the year for no excuses. IMO last year's team is a better, deeper, more experience team than this year's. We had great depth at key positions like RB, TE, Safety, DT whereas this year we're dangerously thin at those positions. And oh by the way, we had a QB better than at least 3 of the 4 current QB's on the roster. Combine that with our main coastal opponents being a UNC team with a non-existent defense and a less talented VT team that was breaking in a new, less experienced coach than ours and last season was the year that was inexcusable for not winning the coastal.
This year we're riding on a 160lb freshman QB or a second baseman, and on Walton not only not getting injured but also stepping up his game big time to help out his QB. Those two things alone are too big of a wild card for me to have any sort of high expectation or to conclude that I can't imagine an excuse as to why this season doesn't end in glory.
Given our lollipop schedule though, anything worse than 9-3 would mean our coaching staff came up short.
Hey, orange and green sunglasses stay on. I'll smile and say 13-1 with a loss to Clemson in the ACCGC. Clemson goes on to the playoffs and Miami beats Michigan in a bowl game.

The defensive front seven should take a big leap. The defensive tackles are going into their third year which is known to be the year they make the biggest jump, plus another year under Kul. Jackson Harris and Thomas with another year experience, and add in Garvin and Johnson...
The big three at linebacker coming in with another year in S&C and experience have a chance to be amazing. With what we've heard about Young, Redwine and Carter I don't think anyones that worried about the D backfield. Add in Dean and Delaney and it could even improve on last year.
The biggest thing is an improved offensive line. Last years team was destined to fail with that ****. With Donaldson, Gauthier, Gaynor and St. Louis emerging and McDermott and Darling moving into their more comfortable positions, we can actually be able to really run the ball and protect the QB this year.
One of the most explosive receivers we've seen here is maturing another year, as well as some stud freshmen coming in. Losing Njoku hurts but Herndon is an excellent replacement. This might sound crazy but having less 2-1 and 2-2 sets because of a lack of depth may be able to actually improve this offense.
Finally, It's one more year of experience under a real coaching staff. QB and the depth behind Walton are my only real concerns. If those two positions are competant with this schedule we should role.
I wanna know what OP thinks.
If he thinks we can do it, then I'm a believer.

Realistically, 11-1 regular season if we stay healthy. We could beat FSU though. They aren't that good. I just don't see glaring weaknesses from us. OLine? Not really. DBs? I think that'll be a strength. Defense will be elite. QB? Maybe. But I don't think so. The pieces are there (Wr, Rb, Te) to help whoever wins the job succeed.

I wonder what might happen if Herndon misses time.
Irving II has some promise but you really have to wonder if we'd abandon the position altogether.
My goodness...lot of optimism in here lol

Rick win 10 with 3 toilet biscuits at QB his final year at UGA. I expect at least that much here. Fck your QB nonsense. Make it work.
I don't feel good for once in 10 years. Not gone lie boys. I got major secondary, OL, AND QB QUESTIONS
