I agree with not wanting to let any of these talented RBs get discouraged by a lack of playing time, but it is kind of a double edged sword. You want one or two backs to set the tone of the game and get consistent looks. The other side is that there will be fresh legs most of time and keep the defense on their heels. I know Cally has said we will establish the ground game better this year, but we have implemted a passing offense as well, so 30-40% of the plays will be to the WR/TE. So whoever is behind ZT better know how to pick up blitzes and protect as well.if cally is smart, and there truely is little seperation, they ALL need to see the field this year.......you DON'T want anyone to walk at the end of the season.........

Haven't heard much about Brooks, so I am not sure I would pencil him ahead of Peterson. I think Peterson and Hardy will get a good number of reps after Nunn, Swift and Purify. I think those 3 will be on the field an awful lot. Holt may get some reps, as the same with Brooks. Chris Brooks hasn't showed enough to really be considered much of an option as of yet. He has tremendous potential though, hopefully it is realized this season at some point. :restoreI don't see Peterson being quite that high on the reciever depth chart. He will get some plays every game but I look for Hardy and possibly Brooks to be ahead of Peterson.

At the same time, we are not really hearing all that much about Peterson either. He seemed to benefit from his length last year. But with Purify and Holt in the mix, he might not be used in the redzone quite as much as last year.Haven't heard much about Brooks, so I am not sure I would pencil him ahead of Peterson.

If you can't get it right against the "little guys" then it really matters. This should be a good game for honing their skills.against La tech does it matter?
exactly. ask *any* team that's played fresno state: just because they aren't a bluechip football program mean they won't eat your lunch if you give them half a chance.If you can't get it right against the "little guys" then it really matters.
