Just to counter some of your points here, because they deserve atleast a little perspective…
You made no comment about Johnson, why, I don’t know. But don’t tell me that’s not significant. Bowling Green does this to Cooper not because of some grandiose QB play… While Bailey is a stud, They absolutely whip them up front. Always have. One look at film and a stat book will tell you that. I agree though, Deuce Bailey is a big loss. Jaxon Strautman will not be as dynamic as Payne, Hayes or Bailey. Agree. But I can assure you he will operate much better than Campbell Gott and Conner Cooper. One of those two won a title.

As far as their defense goes, they just played Male in a scrimmage, and looked like a Bowling Green defense to me. But hey, I’ll be interested to see how many times Cooper loses this year saying this “3 pieces to the puzzle” jazz. It’s nice to hear they have it all figured out though. Maybe the fourth time is the charm!
Howeve, it’s not just Bowling Green that Cooper needs to concern themselves with. Scott County, Owensboro, and Woodford are not people to dismiss. As for it all, time will tell, but I’ll need to see it to believe it.
