Strengths: Quarterback Jake Browning, running backs Myles Gaskin and Lavon Coleman, wide receiver Dante Pettis and my No. 17-rated offensive line -- with 97 combined career starts -- are all back. All three units on defense rank in my top 25 nationally, and the Huskies have six starters back from a defense that allowed just 17.7 points per game.
Weaknesses: The Huskies did lose three second-round draft picks
