Before the season started I posted that this team had the "potential" to be better than the 2016 team that went to the CFP. Clearly they haven't been but when projected 1st rounder Trey Adams, freshman All-American Hunter Bryant, and our most experienced WR were all out before the season even started I knew this wasn't going to be the team I was expecting. With only one reliable WR at the start of the season and sometimes playing with 4th string offensive linemen the team struggled to eek out wins. Add to that some dumbfounding game-time decisions by the HC and opportunities to win close games were squandered.
Adding to that, Jake Browning still was not back to his 2016 form and it seems that this might be owing to a much more invasive operation that involved bone scraping to his shoulder socket may have contributed to that. He is not the same QB he was in 2016.
Having said that, it may just be speculation BUT with Trey Adams and Hunter Bryant finally healthy and the offensive line back to its preseason projection as the number one or two O-lines in the Pac we will get to see if those things truly contributed to their troubles.
A win or a very competitive loss will reveal much about how good this team really is, or could have been.
