What does your offense need to improve on from last year? *(Please let us know the keys about your team on offense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)
We must take care of the football and stay healthy. Last year allowed our young skill guys to earn some experience, as due to injuries we saw 5 different freshmen and sophomores start in our backfield at some point during the season. We will return 4 Senior starters on the offensive line, which should be a strength.

What does your defense need to improve on from last year *
Be more physical and build on the experience we gained last season. We have a bunch of guys who were forced into playing time as underclassman last year due to injuries. They must take the next step in their development in order for us to have success.
