    There also may be something to the fact that this OL SHOULD be good and we have 2 ELITE RBs as well

    BTW, there was a play where Henry Roberts (playing LT with the 1's in place of Adams) literally fell down on the snap ... really amusing to watch.

    People will be jazzing their sweatpants for Cade Otton at some point this year

    Agreed. I think the O Line being competent for a change plays a factor in the D Line looking less dominant than they usually do this spring. That being said, I'm pleased with the athleticism along the D Line. Levi, Jaylen Johnson, and Josiah Bronson are guys that look like they belong on the D line of a top 10 team. We know Gaines and Johnson have the ability push guys around up front so I'm not too worried that we are going to fall flat without Vita.

    The offense certainly looks like you'd expect us to heavily lean on the run game given our lack of a true #1 receiver. Tight ends look awesome. Ahmed is on a different level.
    Can we hope that a lack of options for the pass game and a wealth of options for the run game actually forces us into running the ball down people's throats? No really, is there any hope of this?

    It’s an offense built for running. Our best offensive players are the two RB’s. The OL is better at run blocking. We have 3-4 TE’s that all supposedly look great. Great defense. I’m not worried about the DL. And we have Browning. The way to win is simple.

    I don’t know if we can beat the elite teams, but we easily win the PAC 12 if we do what we should.

    The key if you run the offense right is that besides only asking Browning to throw 20x per game you are asking him to make those from a position of strength where he typically performs at a high level

    I understand being careful in spots with Gaskin and Ahmed to not over work them and maintain health ... but they should be getting a combined 35-40 carriers per game EASILY

    It was a poorly kept secret in fall camp '17 that Haener had thoroughly outplayed Browning.

    Pumpy was our? Snowden
    Where are the Snowdens of yesteryear?

    #Catch22



    We? drew 27,000 coming off a 7-6 season.


    Couple things

    1) lot more people were there than when the pic was taken.

    2) you will never draw as much as other teams when you show passing drills for 2 hours.

    3) your fan base was there because you all actually think you’ll do better than 7-6...lol

    How many jerseys can you put on the field at the same time?

    Is this self parody?
