2018 Offensive Outlook: Our offensive line needs to control the line of scrimmage. We need to get consistent play from our QB. We need to play unselfish.

2018 Defensive Outlook: Defense need to play aggressive and dictate the line of scrimmage. With 8 starters returning it will be the strong part of the team. Swarm to the ball and create turnovers.

2018 Special Teams Outlook: Our special teams need to be consistent. Give us great field position on returns and create turnovers and bad field positions on kick offs and Punts. With both kickers back we have the experience to do well in those areas.
