I don't think anything major could happen to change how competitive we will (should?) be before the season starts, so I'm taking a break. 

Lamar, SMU, and Army were scheduled because they are (supposed) to be winnable games.  They are the gauge for where we are.  Because of UAB's situation/return, I think you also throw them into the Lamar, SMU, Army mix. 

There's no reason we should not go at least 2-2 against those four because our rosters are roughly the same talent-wise.  If we are 1-3 or worse against those four, it's a problem.  If we are 3-1 or better against them, bowling should be in order.

Justin Lawler and Courtland Sutton might beat us by themselves.

Nobody can cover Sutton, and our patchwork OL gave up, what, 5 sacks in one game to Lawler or something stupid like that?

You must know something we don't.

Mr. Brooks and Mr. Jenkins welcome the challenge.  He'll have 5 catches for 90 yards and one touchdown.  We win everyone's happy.

Ok, I understand that but my question was.... Would you say  our secondary is better than last year?

Sure!  
I understand that, but my question was... do we have any nfl draftees to cover a 1st rounder?
