Hayden Greenbauer starts at QB and is a dual threat running and passing. After scoring 10 TDs last season, Jock Tilghman is back to lead the running game. On defense, Gilbert Mata leads the LBs and Jarrad White should also help out. Work in the trenches must find a key player or two, and the secondary needs help to go along with Aaron Burke. Some pieces to the puzzle are in place, and improvement is very possible.
