On the dowside, we still have no idea what our QB situation will be. At the 95% of the rest of the team should be improved, so we should fare well.

will be Harbaugh!! He will either make our current QB's a lot better or he will go crazy and take one of their uniforms and run onto the field pretending to be them and win the game! Or he will demonic possess one of the QB's and do an Avatar style symbiotic QB merge. Or stare so intently at the opposing QB that said QB wilts like a dried up daisy! Whichever way, we're good!!!

The QB situation will be fine. Morris, Speight and Malzone are all talented QB's and will finally be developed by a competent coach. It wasn't the QB's who sucked this year; it was the system that constantly set them up to fail.

All fo 2015 depends on who the HC is. If it's Harbaugh, I think the team will be competative in all games and see success throughout the season. I know QB is a big question mark, but with competant coaching and game planning I feel a good staff will be able to mitigate the weaknessess of the team instead of trying to highlight them.

the new coach can win on the road, something Hoke didn't excel at, we should be OK at Utah next year. I'm always wary of mountain air games though. I think this one is our toughest road game on the schedule in 2015.

at a lower elevation, hold it while not consuming any O2, then exhale in Salt Lake City.

Our RB's next year should be awesome. Isaac, Smith, Green, Johnson. That type of competition should give us a great running game whoever comes into coach. I have to believe that the next coach will improve our offensive line just by not having Funk (who hopefully isn't retained).

maybe 13. Particularly the 12th one.

If we have a QB that can complete passes downfield and not turn it over, I'd expect to win. There wasn't much of a deeper/downfield passing threat this season.

Running Backs should be better with Funk and Jackson gone. Both seemed to be a part of offensive struggles.

Any other wins are gravy.

I'm looking forward to the first game next year because I recently moved to Salt Lake City and can basically walk to Rice-Eccles stadium from my new house.

I just won't feel good about that game till I see how our QB does. Utah is a fairly fierce road environment and it'll be a night game, season opener. It'll be tough to play there.
We'll probably have to rely heavily on the run game which should actually be pretty good next year

Whittingham is an excellent coach and is a DC himself from his prior life and Utah has lived off defense and special teams in his career so just like narduzzi leaving MSU I dont expect much change to their defense. They do lose their best defensive player to the draft at least.
If you rank all 12 games next year there is a case to be made this is the 3rd toughest of the year. Road game, breaking in a new QB, new offensive system, new coaches, tough environment, vs a real coach with a solid team.
It is going to be a very tough game. As for predictions, 2015 football is going to be impossible to predict until we see what level of QB play we are going to get. But even if you are in the bullish 9-3 camp, this has a high probability to be one of those 3.
December 24th, 2014 at 12:13 PM ^
And road games have not been this team's friend. Yeah that might've been a product of Hoke, but still, until proven otherwise, we can't win road games.

Really tough game. Winning a night game at Rice-Eccles against what should be a very solid Utah team will be a tough task regardless of who our coach is.

IT AINT WORTH PLAYING IF YOU DONT WIN BIG!!
