I'm more concerned about the LB room. I'm not too concerned about the DL room. There's a ton there and there are a couple of true freshman already getting valuable reps.

The D overall and OL will lose a ton of experience it'll be interesting to see what happens in the transfer portal. I'm confident holes will be filled with talented players and who knows, might even be upgrades!

O Returning:

Rb: Martin, Beebe

Wr: Chandler, Keys, Sales, DUFF, Wasserstrom

TE: Everyone

OL: Ajani and underclassmen?

DE: Ndukwe, Obidazzor, Calhoun

LB: Hardy, Savage, Turner, Ohlinger

Safety: Sanks, Conner, Owens

Rover: Baldwin, Cung

CB: Bell, Murff

 

O Returns: 4 starters

D Returns: 3-4 Starters

I think Turbo returns. Beebe would have to file an injury exception and I'm unsure how that goes with the implementation of the new rule. Maybe he gets grandfathered into the old rules though.

Woof luckily our schedule looks easier next year

I was wondering if Tobi had another year, but he likely will continue having a year and leave for the draft.  I think if Turbo continues on his path, he will also be gone next season to the draft.  Would think maybe another high level WR(I think Duff was trolling and is going to the draft), another 1-2 RBs, DBs, LBs, D-line, O-line and QB.  Do we really think Landino stays if he produces similar numbers to last year?  Hardy likely going if he gets numbers like last year too.  I do like our young D-line guys.  Great that a few are already in the rotation.  That's huge for next season, and they are incredibly talented. Seems like alot of holes for next year to be filled with the portal.

Carson Williams has eligibility left, that's another corner unless he transfers out.

Sorry for the incomplete list guys. I should’ve double checked some things before posting. Regardless, going to need a large portal haul this offseason. Thankfully players will flock to IU after winning 32 straight

If Georgia-Alabama gets postponed, due to weather, does Alabama move up a few spots in the polls because they did not lose to Georgia?

Probably move both teams up just to be safe. Georgia avoided a road loss afterall

That crossed my mind but Georgia is in second behind a SEC school so they are probably stuck.

Now if Ohio State was #1 Georgia probably would get bumped up.

True ultimate test if all SEC schools are equal or if some are more equal than others.

I might be completely wrong but I'm thinking a bigger portal commitment compared to the 2026 class (17). Probably closer to 2025 (23) or 2024 (31) if I had to guess. I'm thinking this because some on the roster will transfer out. Who knows. Coach Cig mentioned multiple times he'd like to avoid a bigger transfer commit class compared to a high school commit class.

Does anyone listen to Josh Pate? I listened to his reaction to last weekend. Love that the rest of college football media making fun of his moronic take trying to compare 2026 Florida to 2019 LSU after the Ole Miss game. Dude is one of the biggest SEC shills out there.

He’s an idiot by SEC shill standards.  And that’s impressive.

God, there’s a joke here somewhere. Something like they filed it under agriculture because his decision-making’s horse$hit, something, I just can’t find it.

Huskies with one first down so far and down 20-0 at home to Iowa

Pre-season I was nervous about at Washington but now I think we will rush for 400 yards. UW looks horrible tonight.

Honestly I’m not really worried if we can get through OSU. If we get to 7-0.  I think there’s like a 75% chance we get 12-0
