I am pleased with 10 regular season wins. I thought that was a pipe dream ceiling before the season and 8-9 wins was realistic.

I really don't feel like we belonged in the playoffs as we still have to many holes on D and that was expected.

Next year we will probably not equal this years win total as we will be replacing a lot and most likely playing a lot of new comers in some areas. However the incoming class will help the D become better, on down the road.

Not sold on our D backs coach or our D coordinator. Going to have to trust Coach as he is in a better position to evaluate them.

Got some good o players coming in as well who will contribute early.

The portal could help next years team a lot,

Glad to see McCoy is returning

Yes this season exceeded my wildest expectations with 10 regular season wins. 11 wins and being in the top 4 of the CFP would’ve been amazing.

Having a quarterback that can master Heupel’s offensive scheme is my biggest concern for next season. 

We replace LSU on the road with A&M at home in 2023.

Our nonconference schedule is Virginia in Nashville, Austin Peay, UTSA and UConn at home. UTSA and UConn are bowl teams this season and UTSA is currently ranked #23/#24 in the top 25.

I think our lack of depth and talent in the back seven on defense should improve next season. I’m not sure which defense coordinators could do a better job with a lack of talent and having a defense on the field for the vast majority of the time.  

I think we’ll have several good edge rushers on the team next season. That will help put more pressure on the opposing QBs which in turn will help our defensive backs having less time to cover the wide receivers.

We need to get some quality LBs from the transfer portal that can come in as starters.

I’m looking forward to see what our Aussie punter can do. If he’s as good as I hope he could be a real game changer in flipping the field.
