I think you will see a major improvement in his passing game this year. He looked great in the Spring game, very accurate with his throws. He went 7 for 7 on one 80 yard TD drive. I think he finished the game 14 for 17 or something close to that.

The offense was not bad last year, we averaged 29.2 points per game. The major problem was that our defense was the worst in our 118 year history of Washington football. I think the biggest key to the game will be if our new and revamped defense can stop or at least slow down your potent offense. A very large uphill battle for us for sure.

BYU will obviously be the favorite to win this game, but I don't think it will be anywhere close to a cake walk or a blowout. You will for sure have your hands full with Jake Locker:

To say that I am nervous about this game is an understatement. This will be a very tough game for us to win, why? It's at Husky Stadium and IMO there are many unknowns on the Washington team that make predicting the outcome more difficult. I will be happy with a 1 point victory to be honest with you. I'm coming up for the game and will be happy with just that.

How do you see your team performing with all the new replacements this year? I am intrigued. I know that Chris Polk is supposed to be a stud, but what about the others at the different positions?
