You never know how QBs will turn out, but he has 3 highly ranked QBs to choose from.  It's kind of an awkward situation where I expect one to transfer out at some point.  Seems like Miller may be #3 right now, so he may transfer out around bowl season if he ends up there.

The bigger story is whether the pass defense can improve.  Coombs gets a pass for last year since he had no choice but to run Hafley's schemes that he wasn't familiar with.  We'll see what things look like with a full spring etc. to work with this time.  The talent level and overall performance of the incumbents in the secondary is also a bit questionable, so I am curious if some younger guys may get some more PT.

Will there be a team "from nowhere" unexpectedly make the playoffs?  Probably not, I don't think Iowa State is really that obscure in the polls.  My somewhat darker horses ti win their conferences are the usual:

UNC
Florida
Wisconsin
Iowa State
Anybody in the west.

One of those could  break through and it wouldn't be a complete shock.

Iowa State has Matt Campell at the helm,therefore one has to consider them in the mix! Don't believe me ask Brutas or Bay Area 😎

UGA just collected a couple portal guys who fill some slots.

Reaction: Georgia addresses need with elite talents Arik Gilbert, Derion Kendrick (247sports.com)

As a freshman during the 2020 season, Gilbert caught 35 passes for 368 yards (10.5 average) and two touchdowns in eight games. Gilbert was the 247Sports Composite's top player at his position and the highest-rated tight end recruit in 247Sports history.

Kendrick appeared in 39 games for Clemson over the past three years with 23 starts. He started his career at wide receiver in 2018 but moved to cornerback in 2019 where he was a second-team All-ACC selection. He was a first-team selection after the 2020 season.

I'd opine they are equal, if not better, in talent on the field.  Of course, you need that talent in the right spots, like QB, and you need elite coaching.

So UGA somehow slides him in, when he wasn't going to be able to enroll at Florida?  Hooray, academics!!!

Getting Kendrick shows UGA is either deeply serious or borderline desperate. 

That kid has more red flags on him than a medieval castle.

I predict that having never, EVER been there before, Iowa State will struggle with the expectations.  Like losing 2 games they're easily favored in.
Agreed. But, they do have some really good skilled players as in Brock Purdy at 5th year QB, and Breece Hall at RB with almost 1,600 yards in 2020.

ISU lost their past 5-games to Iowa. Iowa looks to be good in 2021, too.

Rarely do these two do well in the same year.
