They have a lot of talent returning. But I listened to Rick Neuheisel speaking about another similar team (not BSU) and he said something very similar to what I wrote last night, something to the effect of, "...You can have great skill players and people returning, all that summer chemistry (summer workouts) but when the lines are raw, you just won't have the time to throw accurately or run and that's reality. You win and lose on the line of scrimmage. You line either gives you time or makes holes for you. Failure at either and it's hard to win no matter how good your skill players are.
YOU sidsie716 nailed it! In fact, this is why I predict BSU plays BYU at 1-1 and will lose to AFA the week before it.
