Outlook: The Buckaroos move to an ultra difficult district where it will be a major chore to try and improve on last year's 3-7 record. Troy Roberson should see lots of work at RB; it will be interesting to see if he can duplicate last year's 1,000-rushing season when they play against stiff competition. Travis Wallis steps in at QB and will utilize up and coming WR Carlos Valdez. On defense, Tyler McNabb leads the LBs, with Paxton Sullivan a key member of the secondary. It is going to take time getting used to this district, and playmakers are especially needed on defense.
