I'd also add a "good" supporting cast. Detmer is the GOAT but

the talent around him in 91 wasn't as good as the prior season.

I'm praying he has a Sr. season like Sarkisian had. And John Beck.

gopman

6/3/23 7:41pm

And Steve Young's.

gopman

6/3/23 7:44pm

And Joe Burrow

Coop

May as well, as long as we’re expressing hopes

Kevin Arnold

And Jim McMahon and Marc Wilson…

There's a pattern here. Just saying.....

IIRC, both McMahon and Detmer had better Jr yrs than Sr yrs.

Seems more likely to have a season like Sarkisian's Jr. year.

Why is that? He's played P5 level football for 3 years now.

First year in the program like it was for Sark. Took time to figure things out.

Sark was straight out of Juco & to adapt to D1 college football

DT? Kicker?

We won't know any of those things until September

6/3/23 7:45pm

We’re picked to finish pretty low in the conference.

That should keep us grounded you would think.

6/3/23 7:50pm

As a generational BYU fan, I always expect us to snatch

Courtimedes

We tend to have "magical" seasons when we have a Sr. QB

Who had the biggest leap from their Jr. year to their Sr. year

Z. Wilson? Independent NCAA QB to NFL starter…

NYC and Japan

I have very low expectations. Hoping for 6 wins.

cambo

6/3/23 7:46pm

That's pretty fair.

6/3/23 7:48pm

I think it's realistic to see a version that's the best of his career

QB play is key. Our last ten 10-win seasons have had the following QBs:

Odysseus

I'd also add a "good" supporting cast. Detmer is the GOAT but

gopman

6/3/23 8:27pm

Yeah, it’s kind of a chicken & egg thing. Did the team make the QB look good or

Odysseus

I continue to believe, if Taysom hadn't gotten injured every stinkin' year...

Courtimedes

6/3/23 8:40pm

If healthy, Taysom’s name would have been on this list 💯 % for sure

Mr Beto

6/4/23 9:48pm

I agree, we have to hope he really leveled-up this offseason.

Bandit

6/3/23 8:56pm

USC (and entire Pac) was a mess during/post-COVID. Tough to judge

6/3/23 9:51pm

Slovis and injuries. We don’t have power 5 depth yet

WDaddy

6/3/23 9:00pm

I'm concerned about WR and safety depth

JuicyJam

6/3/23 9:09pm

Or a slovis injury. If he goes down we are toast.

6/3/23 9:31pm

Oh, we have some pretty good backup QB's. Jake Retzlaff (JC transfer).

6/4/23 12:00am

Yeah like I said - we are toast barring something unforeseen.

6/4/23 3:20am

Average your take and OMillionares and we’re about right
