especially if you count playing BSU on the road, which most would equate to a P5 level challenge. And BYU's road games tend to be associated with much further travel needs than most other teams.

Playing 4-5 P5 road games/year in and of itself doesn't seem that much different than what we have been doing.

We definitely have some challenges this year in replacing a ton of talent, and injuries did hurt us badly last year. Hopefully changes to our S&C will help our depth issues, and I do see our defense potentially being a lot better with better coaching. But easy to see how our offense may take a step back.

B12 doesn't tend to have many elite teams nor bottom feeders, so can be a very thin line between being towards the top of the league, and towards the bottom, and this year is not exactly our best team we have had, so will be very interesting. But, if we surpass expectations it could still be a very strong year with a really good record.
