They were close in 2016, and we have up graded in many areas.

With a new QB and new emphasis on offense, and a new D.C. And new scheme on defense, there is too much that is new to expect the team to play like veterans. They will need time to adjust. I would expect a lot more in 2018.

No but funny! We need to beat average teams before we worry about championships.

New D.C., lack of offensive line depth and a new QB plus a tough schedule = 8/9 wins. I'll take it

We're not there yet -- Penn State and Minnesota on the road are two likely losses, and the home schedule is brutal.

New passing type QB, O-Line that will get our non-running type QB sacked, losing our top receivers to graduation, implementing a new defensive scheme and losing our top Safety, and to top it off a very tough schedule. 6-6 or 7-5 next year.

really 4-8 HCMR has had no success in college what makes you think he will here let alone next yr. two things we need dual threat QB and run the ball neither will happen we could not block this yr. what makes you think it will be better next with just a passer and no threat to run ?????

Looks like we are rebuilding again. Don't see us doing any better than 3rd in the west. That's where we are these days. A little better than Minnesota, not as good as Iowa...

New QB and a new defense. Going to take superlative talent for that to happen, so unlikely.

Thumbs up or down on all-red uniforms for the HCU game?

I don't like it, but as long as we're going to play around with nonsense alternate uniforms, the boys might as well learn wi win in them.

Because we as fans should let the team wear whatever makes them excited and quit bringing up times 30 plus years ago like the uniforms had anything to do with how the games turned out.

The Redcoats were intimidating as is and didn't change to all Red on skirmish day.

Traditional is much more intimidating. One color uniforms make players look smaller (except for all white.)

Bad choice and ugly. For those old enough to remember, we got Irvin Fryar out of New Jersey because he looked better in our uniforms than the ugly Penn State uniforms. Why change for the sake of change when you have the better all ready in place. Sounds like the management of Cracker Barrel.

Is the 34½-point spread against Akron about right?

Because the poll was still open on the Monday after the game... And I could not see the percentages without voting.

They have the talent, they need to take the step of winning the games they should win in the manner they should win them. Don’t play down to the level of the opponent.

It better be...defense front should be fixed and Akron Defense should allow for deeper passes. At HOME at NIGHT!!! #GBR

I do not believe some of the glaring problems with the run defense have not been fixed, and Akron will exploit them.

The D-line against Cincy wasn't overly impressive, our run game was relatively unproductive, and we had some lucky breaks (even if good play contributed). The next two weeks will be important for closing gaps; I don't think we'll wallop Akron quite by 30+ points. I'm guessing we end up 17
