We’re not going to be destroying teams 42-10, because we’ll be destroying teams 52-10. We have better talent than Notre Dame. Better talent than Alabama. Better talent than USC.
Most of our opponents this year, cannot stop the run, which just happens to be our strength. Ohio State could not stop our rushing attack last year, as they yielded 243 rushing yards to us. The only reason we didn’t beat them was because we didn’t have a passing game, and turned the ball over. This year we have the passing game we lacked last year. I expect the offense to be incredibly productive.
Monangai is a Heisman Candidate, and the leading returning Big Ten rusher. Dymere Miller put up near Heisman numbers at Monmouth, catching 90 balls for 1,295 yards, a mere 1.1 yards off the Heisman pace established by the last WR Heisman Winner, Devonta Smith, in 2020. If the quarterback can throw accurately, he will put up huge numbers.
The OL and running back are the heart and soul of this team. Hollín Pierce is an All American Candidate. Felter is an All Conference Candidate as is Zilinskas. Not a coincidence that our biggest runs have been towards the left side of the line or up the middle. Kobe Asamosh
has played some, but is going to need time to acclimate, but will be a good player someday. Transfer Shedrick Rhodes is a Monster Tackle, who is going to bolster our run game, while providing better pass protection. Reggie Sutton, who has been hampered by a knee injury, will be the first OL off the bench and has a ton of experience.
The quarterback, Athan Kaliakmanis, is capable of throwing accurately and making the easy throws. I’m looking for a 58% completion percentage from him with 20TDs and 7 ints. He will be supported by an exceptionally talented WR Corp. Dymere Miller is a true WR1, is fast and has exceptional hands. Ian Strong is a future Superstar, capable of dominating opposing DBs. Christian Dremel has worked his way into becoming a consistent WR, who has displayed good hands and runs good routes, and knows how to get open. Naseim Brantley is going to contribute something as will Long. Toure is just getting his feet wet, but he is going to dominate opposing DBs with his superior size and strength. Korey “SpiderMan” Duff has a huge ceiling, but is probably going to need timé to acclimate to this level. Ben “The Flash” Black and his 4.37 speed, are going to be impossible to stop. They will probably ease him in, just like Tim Brown during his freshman year.
Kenny Fletcher will be the main tight end, and should be able to contribute something. The rest of the tight ends are a question mark, but hopefully some emerge. Konopka seems most likely, having previously contributed.
The defense could be the nations best, with 315 lb NT Zaire Angoy, anchoring the middle of the defensive line. He is going to be Rutgers Vince Wilfork, and was specifically called out by Schiano for his terrific Miami bowl game performance. He is going to be backed up by FSU transfer Malcolm Ray. He is complemented by future NFL starter, DT Kyonte Hamilton. They are sandwiched by a pair of All American potential Ends in Aaron Lewis and Wesley Bailey. They weren’t quite as productive as we hoped last year, as their coach was taking care of health issues. This year, will be much different.
The Linebackers might be the best in the nation. Tyreem Powell is an All American and Butkus award Candidate. Mohamed Toure was very productive and demonstrated terrific instincts last year. Igbinosun plays a hybrid LB-DB position and was exceptionally productive last year, with 64 tackles and 6.5 tfl.
The secondary could also be the nations best, with Flip Dixon and Shaquan Loyal vying for All American honors. As will Robert Longerbeam, who has slowly but surely built himself into one of the best DBs in the game. The other CB could be Bo Mascoe, who will be getting his feet wet.
The only competitive games I see are Nebraska, Wisconsin, and USC. We should DESTROY everyone else.
We are going to DESTROY Virginia Tech, and everyone else, because their lines will be dominated by ours, just like what we did against Miami. ACC teams don’t have the talent, toughness, and level of execution to stay within 14 points of Rutgers. Last year we beat VT by 19. This year I expect to exceed that difference.
It’s not a coincidence that no ACC team has beaten us during Schiano 2.0.
Last year, we had too many deficiencies. This year, there are few, if any. We’ve got 12 opportunities. Time to make it happen!
