...and we will have depth issues in the secondary and other positions on defense. Nick by himself is a lock to lose us several games. Road games at Nebraska, UCLA, Michigan, Mizzou and Utah St could all be losses next season. Also home games vs Boise St, E Carolina and Cincinnati could be losses too. They have high-powered offenses and we haven't shown anything on defense this year to give confidence heading into next season.

Next season could be a disaster. San Jose St might be the only gimme on the schedule. We might be very fortunate to get bowl eligible next year.
