Season Prediction, Win Total, Keys to Season

- Behren Morton won’t get any attention or love among Big 12 quarterbacks this preseason, but he has 6,209 career passing yards and 49 scores, coming off a 3,335-yard, 27-touchdown season.

Morton isn’t huge, he’s coming off of shoulder injury, and he doesn’t run, but he knows how to move an attack. Mitch Griffis (Wake Forest) and Will Hammond are more than solid backups.

- Leading receiver Josh Kelly is done, but the corps is loaded with Caleb Douglas and Coy Easkin combining for 109 catches and 13 touchdowns, and with Reggie Virgil (Miami University) coming off a 41-catch season with nine scores, averaging 20 yards per grab.

Louisiana transfer Terrance Carter caught 48 passes last season. He’ll combine with Johncarlos Miller II at tight end.

- It only seems like Tahj Brooks started his Red Raider career in the DeWitt Weaver era. The star running back is now a Cincinnati Bengal, and it’ll likely take a village to replace him.

J’Koby Williams is the leading returning back, and Cameron Dickey is a decent option, but USC transfer Quinten Joyner should be the perfect fit for the attack - he averaged over seven yards per carry, and can catch.

- The line was fine, but it could be stronger - and it will be. The transfer portal brings in a star in Howard Sampson (North Carolina) at one tackle, and Hunter Zambrano (Illinois State) to play inside or out.

Will Jados (Miami University) is way too good not to find a spot at one tackle, at least in a rotation. Getting back guard Davion Carter, after the NCAA gave him another year, loads up the interior, with NFL prospect Sheridan Wilson back at center.
