Pre-Season Football Mail Bag #1

Vasha Hunt-USA TODAY Sports Question(s) from Westboundnup & VUSpaceMan:

Am I Mets-level dumb for having hope this season?

This is the time of year I assess VU football’s chances for the upcoming season. Boy, I see solidness at all positions, including kicker for goodness sake. Setting aside win totals, I believe I’d “buy” VU football this season.

I’m a little uncomfortable with the level of optimism I’m experiencing. We’re deep on both sides of the line and we have a solid returning qb. We may get touched by the long ball, but not everyone can do that.

I’d buy also.

I know you said to put win totals aside, but I’d go 4, maybe 5. If you had to put a number on it, what would it be?
