Different Year, Same Expectations: None

So I’ve been kind of passive so far about this season. I look forward to it like any football season, sure, but I’m currently battling some amount of vague apathy. Why? This is the third straight year- third- that I cannot feel justified in having expectations for this team.

Do you know how weird that feels?

College teams often have rotating rosters. That’s just due to the rotating nature of the student body. Considering the longest anyone is on a team is five years, and in general a starter that’s GOOD is only around for three if that, you get the churn, of course.
