    1. Keith Price - He is the best player on the field, enough said on that. He has three years under his belt and he will do everything possible to win the game.

    2. Offensive Line - They average a weight of 332 lbs across the line, they are ready to dominate the line of scrimmage. Atoe, Riva, Deans, Kohler, Criste, Shelton, Ossai etc. These boys have the attitude and are ready to rumble.

    3. Wilcox - New Defensive Scheme and a new attitude. Every player has spoke out about the difference between Wilcox 2012 and Wilcox 2013, we will see a much improved defense on 8/30.

    4. Speed, Speed, Speed - This is the fastest UW team has been in a long time. Deontae Cooper, Cooper Pelluer, Jamall Kearse, Jermaine Kelly, etc. The newbies will be inexperienced but will bring something that they haven't had in past seasons, speed.

    5. Time of Possession - I think UW can dominate the time of possession stat. The more they can shorten the game and keep their defense off of the field, the better chance they have to win the game.


    I think UW wins rather easily, say 34-17?

    1. Coaching

    2. Offense

    3. Defense

    4. Special Teams

    5. Penalties

    If the Dawgs can control those five areas, I like their chances.
