Just for the fun of it, given who we have back, where does everyone think we will be ranked starting out next year, and given the year we had this year?

I'd say in the 20-25 range if we pull it together and win a bowl game.

Losing over half the starters on offense and defense we will not be ranked in the top 25 for probably 2 years.

That would be my guess (but that's also a big "IF" there, Milo. . .).

Man, we lose a boatload of quality people...but that might turn out to be a good thing.

Having the quality is only part of the story...that quality has to produce!

actually our defense might not be as bad as some people think next year. we lose our d-line but i think we have quality depth to back it up. (Xavier Mitchell, Turk McBride, Tony McDaneil, and ive heard J.T Mapu may be coming back). We hardly lose anybody in our seconday. THe only thing that worried me is the linebacker position.

biggest lose on defense would have been allen before he got hurt. nows its lookin like either jason hall or parys harelson. on offense it would be one of the linemen. probably douglas.
