Outlook: Trinity Christian's defense could be historically great. It is, without question, historically talented. For the team to reach its potential, its offense needs to improve. Ideally, it will find someone other than Kevin Toliver to play quarterback, so the LSU commit can focus on defense. Buford will be a great road challenge, as will Godby, which handed Trinity Christian a 42-6 defeat last year.
