I think the biggest loss will be in the secondary. We lose too much there...and then losing Allen will be the worst loss on the team. But, Pascal coming back may give us another elite player (as long as he is fully recovered). The line and linebackers should be good.
Benny Snell's loss will hurt...but the secret to Benny's success has been an amazing offensive line...and we return quite a bit from the current 2-deep(not to mention Landon Young). Lynn Bowden is only scratching the surface...and maybe a Wandale Robinson can add another weapon.
Will we be as good? No. But....I see Mizzou and Vandy taking huge steps back. Then there's 3 gimme non-conference games. Tennessee, South Carolina, and Louisville games all don't scare me. We get Florida at home.
Its a favorable schedule. Do i see 10-11 wins next year? No...but I in no way see a drop back to a 2-10 or 3-9 type team. And that's me speaking realistically.
