I think the new kickoff rules give a HUGE advantage to the schools who have more overall talent. The kind of athletes we have that are maybe in the 2 deep or just outside and running to cover/return kickoffs gives us a huge advantage over almost anyone we play. Especially the Akron's of the world.

Yes, special teams are a concern. Missed extra point, field goal and blocked punt against Army.
Defense is the strong point with 8 starters returning.
Offense is young...only three starters returning. Two new quarterbacks, both sophomores.
Chris Jacquemain won the starting QB job, however, Carlton Jackson is also getting playing time. Jacquemain (Mentor) is more of a drop back guy...Jackson is more athletic run-out-of-the pocket style.
Hoping for a good, injury free game for both sides.
