Jaguar Football: On the attack? Predictions

It’s about that time; Jags, football season preparation is well underway. Spring football has been kicked off, and people are noticing changes compared to last year’s team. One of those is the offense; it’s not your traditional “ground and pound” Southern Football team. The offense has been seen running multiple formations such as four wide receivers sets, running backs in the slots, and more spread. Coach Dooley has been making changes, and he will have an opportunity to show a little something for the spring game on April 9th at A.W. Mumford Stadium at 3 P.M.
I am excited to see what this team will bring next year because nobody knows Southern tradition like Coach Eric Dooley. Every team Coach Dooley has been on has seen its offensive numbers go up tremendously. The offensive side of the ball has been one of the Jag’s Achilles heels. Last year, many games the Jaguars were in, such as Jackson State, McNeese State, Florida A&M, and Prairie View A&M, but lost in the second half because of lackluster offense. With Coach Dooley, he likes to attack and control the game. I am predicting this offense to get stronger each game and challenge other teams to respond to them, leading to more wins.
Looking at the 2022 schedule in totality, typical SWAC games like Jackson State, Alcorn FAMU, and Grambling are familiar. However, the schedule allows the Jags to control their destiny with one FBS opponent, the LSU tigers. With a high-powered offense and a solid defense, the Jags could wake the conference up and get back to winning championships. The Jags are adjusting to a new system, but Dooley has let them know they will be put under pressure. He is doing everything to make them thrive in those situations, which is well needed when playing in the SWAC with games like the Boombox Classic and Bayou Classic.
I am predicting nine wins or more for the Jags with a SWAC championship on their resume and a first-time appearance in the Celebration Bowl in ATL. The reason for the high confidence is because Coach Dooley knows the standard of Southern. He helped the Jags win 4 SWAC titles with 2 National titles on Pete Richardson’s staff. He has also been taught by the great Eddie Robinson and has won 2 SWAC titles with him. He loves and feeds off the pressure and will develop his players with confidence in those situations. With a swagger he possesses, he knows what he wants and will get it one way or another. The spring game has a lot of people on its toes, and they are excited to see what this year’s team will bring. So go out and see the Dooley Era begin April 9th at 3:00 P.M. at A.W. Mumford Stadium.
