Re: 2025 Football Schedule updates
Given the number of returning players, the strong finish in 2023 and the perceived strength of conference opponents, many people had good reason to expect App would win the East and the SBC crown. So, is it a shock that the coaching staff was talking it up?
Anyways, all of this may as well be ancient history. Let’s move forward, shall we?

Going into last season, the biggest question marks were the fronts. Success is earned through solid line play on both sides of the ball. As we saw, injuries and losses along the OL and DL created a worse case scenario event.

Agree. OL and DL are over valued in the portal/NIL era and until the market stabilizes, it’s going to continue to be an issue.

I also think we have two , maybe three QBs we can win with IF we have a line that gets the job done.

Two years from now some revisionist historian will claim we entered the season not as the favorites.
This is the Jerry Moore FOIA annual discussion on smaller scale. Then someone will have to remind them.
Vicious cycle.
