"I've seen that swing in my head all summer long and I think the guys have too, and we knew we were right at the cusp of putting ourselves in a position to play for a championship but we did not get it done.

The 2019 campaign begins with 10 games against three Top 26 teams, including #9 Georgia and #7 North Carolina after the season opening series at Arizona, starting on February 15.
