ESPN: Biggest 2020 question for each Top 25 college football team

[Taji34]

19. Minnesota Golden Gophers
The Golden Gophers have to replace receiver Tyler Johnson, but with quarterback Tanner Morgan, receiver Rashod Bateman, running back Mohamed Ibrahim and the entire offensive line returning, there is a lot of reason for optimism about what they'll look like on offense. The biggest question here is how the change in offensive coordinator will factor in as Mike Sanford comes in to replace Kirk Ciarrocca. As the offensive coordinator at Utah State last season, Sanford guided a unit that could be explosive, at times, but quarterback Jordan Love's numbers took a sharp dive from when he was a sophomore under a different staff. It's a different situation at Minnesota, where he'll join an established staff, so expectations remain very high. --

Biggest 2020 question for each Top 25 team

Can transfer QB Jamie Newman jump-start Georgia's offense? Who will play QB for Michigan? Even the best teams have questions heading into next season.

I would not consider how our offense is going to do under the new OC to be anywhere close to the top question for the team heading into 2020.

Who was that unanimous All-American, Big Ten Defensive Back of the Year, and
Bronko Nagurski Award Finalist?

 

[GophersInIowa]

Replacing guys like Winfield, Coughlin, Barber, and Renner on defense is the biggest question in my opinion.

What if our offense, which was our strength down the stretch this year, is just average because of a new OC/Offense. And we are left with and average offense and a young defense? You don't think thats an issue?

Everyone calm down.

Obviously nothing is guaranteed but if the key players on offense stay healthy I just don't see anyway we go backwards on that side of the ball. There is just way too much returning talent on offense and many of them will be transitioning over to upper classmen which is when players typically hit their stride and start playing really well.

Not sure what the "Everyone calm down" line is directed at since I don't see anyone freaking out, at least not in this thread.
