2021 Offensive Outlook: We look forward to a season I. Which we were able to prepare heavily in the offseason. Our skill position players are mostly veterans with playing experience. We are working through a QB competition which has been very tight through the offseason. Our big key to success will be relaxing a large amount of our offensive line from last season and the leadership from our graduates.

2021 Defensive Outlook: Defensively we return a tremendous amount of game experience. We are replacing a number of linemen upfront. A major factor judging our success this year will be the front 4.

2021 Special Teams Outlook: We return our punter from last season, but are relaxing our three kickers from last season. Our return men are mostly back with an emphasis in camp to train new punt returners as our two punt returners who started last season in those positions have both graduated.
