Some thoughts... Having LU 114th out of the 130 FBS teams seems a little low. The SOS is weaker this particular year and it might become weaker if the ACC teams cancel. I am thinking LU will win a fair number games despite the ACC teams situation.

Steele places emphasis on having only 9 returning starters in comparison to last year which had 15 returning starters. I think one factor to consider is that many starters were from the FCS era. This year, the team contains more FBS level players. So likely younger but with more FBS caliber talent.

Steele praises HF for his 8 wins last year. It was not expected. I think the coaching staff will continue to improve the overall team. The system is now in place. No more coaching and system transitioning. The talent is rising and the coaching staff looks closer to a P5 staff on paper. Another 8-ish win season is realistic IMO.
