Week 1 depth chart

Observations: 4 TEs!! Wow
No Bazill on the depth chart at RB? Sheesh
Hoping NW improved significantly in offseason he did not look good in the bowl game…running or blocking
I don’t know much about the two starting safeties, curious to see them in action
Special teams is going to win us at least 1 game this year.

Idaho DL needs to be running gaps and avoiding blocks. They’ll get shoved all over the field if they try to take on and shed blocks.

That is a high school sized DL. Half kidding.
 
Backup QB still shows Mateer OR X Ward.

Not settled yet.
Either John Mateer is that good or the rest of the QB's are not that good. I am going with the former. Barring injury I still believe Mateer has a good chance of being a 4 year starter (if Cam bails after this year)

Agree

If NW does not run for 100+ this week it will be his last game as the starting RB. Should be some huge holes for the backs this week.

UI's DL is undersized, but our OL is underexperienced. Might not be the mismatch that it should be. On the other side, their OTs have their best size & experience (based on their class year), so may have the best chance against Jackson & Stone...but I still suspect we'll have a field day on the edge. Pretty much everywhere, this game is a total mismatch (as it should be), with the OL being the biggest question mark just because of how young they are.

I can see the argument to play this game pretty vanilla on offense, but with Wisconsin next week I'm not sure that's what I'd do. I'd favor opening the playbook more, but rotating more players into the game. We're not going to beat Wisconsin on the road if the starters have to go the distance.
