2) How do the freshmen look?

Speaking of freshmen, this will be our first look at them in a real game.

As mentioned before, I’m really interested in seeing Dixon, Ross and Kendrick at the skill positions. It is my belief that at least one of them score a touchdown in Game One.

It will also be fun to see Jackson Carman on the offensive line, as well as many others including Xavier Thomas, KJ Henry, Mike Jones Jr., Kyler McMichael, Mario Goodrich and Braden Galloway.

The most watched freshman, though, will be quarterback Trevor Lawrence.

Lawrence will be the second-string quarterback and I believe he’ll be rotated in the game very early.
