2017 Offensive Outlook: On offense we hope to be more balanced than we have in years past. We have either been able to run the ball or throw the ball but never both in the same game. Hopefully we can find that balance and limit penalties and take care of the ball. We also need to finish drives. We moved the ball well but did not score nearly enough points last year.

2017 Defensive Outlook: Our defense was solid a year ago and kept us in just about every game we played. We lost a lot to graduation but have guys ready to step up and fill in. We need to tackle soundly and eliminate big plays, while hopefully creating more turnovers.

2017 Special Teams Outlook: Our special teams was adequate but should be better in the 2017 season. We have a good returner and should be able to control field position through our special teams.
