You folks are blowing off the losses on our defense like it's nothing. We didn't lose near as much defensive talent after the 2003 season and look how long it took the defense to gel in 2004 (remember Iowa)? By the end of next season the defense will be solid, but the first few games will be a major break-in process, and the Texas game could be an ass-whipping if Young is back. If Youboty bolts, we'll lose nine starters on defense, people...

I know. People haven't seemed to grasp just losing Hawk alone will hurt us tremendously let alone our entire secondary and Kudla on our defensive line. I really hope Youboty and Whitner stay. I think both could be All-Americans.

exactally what I was thinking.
The toughest games are going to be @ Texas, @ Iowa, PSU, and scUM.
I think it is doable, but I think I am going to wait and see until after Spring practice to get my hopes up. We have too long to wait.

Mili, weren't you the one who on the front page said that "we should go no worse than 11-1."
Next year is going to be a very tough year at the start. If VY comes back, I don't think we are going to go into Austin and win that game. Even if VY doesn't come back, it's going to take quite an effort to pull off that win. PSU could be a tough game with their LB's and their WR's on offense. However, they don't have an experienced DL for those LB's, much like Iowa this year. By the end of the year (scUM game) we should be one of the best teams in the country. Hopefully with the favorable schedule (minus the UT game), we can go into that scUM game unbeaten and looking for our 4th Fiesta Bowl victory in 5 years.
Go Bucks!!!

PSU should in my mind be an easy win. They had i think it was thirteen redshirt 5th year seniors on their team this year. That is alot to replace.
