Yet, despite all that success, they’ve never cracked the College Football Playoff, highlighting a ceiling that’s hard to break. This season, their fate hinges on whether they can solidify both offensive and defensive lines—with new talent stepping up and defensive coordinator Phil Parker keeping the unit sharp. If the quarterback situation remains shaky, the offense could falter, especially under pressure. But with the right adjustments, a nine-win season and even a surprise playoff berth remain possible.
