5 - 7 (3 - 5 Conf.)

Quarterback play will be the biggest mystery this season. From where I sit, Tulane is above average/good at every position, except for Quarterback. This offense needs decent QB performance and leadership.

What QB will step up and lead the offense? The defense and running game will be fine.

If the Tulane QB surprises everybody and plays outstanding, then this ball club will go to a bowl. Otherwise, another losing season lurks on the horizon.

From where I sit, the offensive line is not average/good. When I read that Leglue is one of the best players I worry.

Even Fritz recently said the offensive line is our biggest issue. I'll add that this certainly seems like it belongs in the season prediction thread.

Pete, I'm 100% sure our QB play will be a big step up from last year. Even with the O-Line questions we face, the QB play must and will be much better. If Banks can't get the job done, a very athletic Brantley, in his second year at this level and in Fritz's system, will be a big step up from last year. Our starter last year is now 5th on the depth chart.

OK, fine, but the bottom line is that the QB MUST play well in each game for success to happen for this ball club this year.

Will QB play make a difference in the outcome of the OU game?

Our QB play will be a huge upgrade from last year. To expect our QB's to have their best game every week is unrealistic. We're going to have some good, or hopefully great games, and some that we don't look so good. Last year every week our QB play was horrendous.

Anyone know a "radio web site" that will carry the game live? Thanks for posting if so.

Check the game notes I posted a link on. They should have all broadcasting information there.

Maybe you can't watch for some reason, but the game is on ESPN3, which is basically a web based ESPN station.
