Week 1: #42 Boston College (0-0) at #31 Idaho (0-0)
It's a bit of a rough start for Newsome's career as we struggle to convert third downs and fall behind 21-10 in the 1st half. Newsome stays cool, and with the help of fellow redshirt Freshman Young, we completely dominate the 4th quarter and pull away. Code:
QB Newsome 19-32-290-2-0 RB Young 16-65-2, 4-56-0 WR Newsome 5-72-1 ILB Newton 8 tackles, 5 assists, 1 INT *Our run defense was terrific (41 carries, 71 yards), but Boston College's QB had over 300 yards passing. *Kent State beats Arizona 56-0.

Week 2: #9 Idaho (1-0) at Washington State (0-0)
Oooof. Newsome just falls apart in his 2nd start with an absolutely terrible game. Washington State takes advantage of turnovers and missed FG's to take a 24-0 1st quarter lead. We try to fight back, but Newsome throws picks on 4 out of 5 drives int he 2nd half to kill any comeback hopes. Code:
QB Newsome 15-47-314-2-6 WR Greene 6-134-1 WR Gaines 3-106-0 WR Newsome 3-93-1 DE Perkins 4 tackles, 4 assists, 2.5 sacks *I'm gonna stick with Newsome for now. At the worst, the experience will help him develop faster.

Week 5: Louisiana-Monroe (0-2) at Idaho (1-1)
Well we predictably jump out to an early lead against a weak Louisiana-Monroe squad, but it's frustrating that we had trouble putting them away. They keep coming back to make it a one score game until late in the 3rd quarter when a Copeland FG pushes it to a three score game. The defense finally slows them down and we hold on. Code:
QB Newsome 25-45-413-2-0 RB Young 16-116-1 WR Newsome 7-165-2 WR Gotchy 6-96-0 DE Perkins 5 tackles, 1 assist, 3 sacks *Oregon State beats Arizona 43-6.

Week 7: North Texas (1-4) at #35 Idaho (2-1)
North Texas is terrible and we have no problem dispatching them. Newsome threw 6 picks in one game, but hasn't thrown a pick in three other games. Code:
QB Newsome 17-27-229-1-0 RB Young 16-78-2, 4-31-0 RB Luther 9-81-1, 1-8-0 WR Greene 5-82-1 ILB Newton 8 tackles, 2 assists, 1 INT, 1 TD S Isaacson 6 tackles, 1 INT, 1 FF DE Lyon 4 tackles, 1 assist, 3 sacks DE Perkins 4 tackles, 3 assists, 2.5 sacks *New Recruits: WR Tyrone Harmon - #51 Overall, #5 WR QB Jay Elliss - #109 Overall, #10 QB *Newsome got hurt in the victory and will miss 3 weeks. *USC beats Arizona 45-0. *FSU and Notre Dame retain the top two spots.

Week 8: Arkansas State (1-4) at #28 Idaho (3-1)
Another easy victory against a terrible Sun Belt team. It's 30-0 at halftime and everyone gets to play. Code:
QB Stuvaints 15-21-179-3-1 QB Pierce 6-10-147-1-0 RB Young 16-76-1 WR Greene 5-67-3 WR Newsome 3-88-0 CB Foreman 4 tackles, 1 INT *New Recruits: WR Tyrus O'Donnell - #29 Overall, #3 WR DE Howard Hatcher - #611 Overall, #55 DE *UCLA beats Arizona 44-16 *California jumps ahead of FSU for the #2 ranking behind #1 Notre Dame.

Week 9: #22 Idaho (4-1) at New Mexico State (2-4)
Newsome is back, but he's not needed much as Jay Young runs right through New Mexico State's defense and our own defense comes up with 3 picks. Code:
QB Newsome 10-19-152-0-1 RB Young 20-180-2, 3-23-0 OLB Fisk 2 tackles, 3 assists, 2 INT ILB Newton 7 tackles, 5 assists *New Recruits: T Ben Fox - #13 Overall, #3 T C David Bryant - #25 Overall, #1 C OLB Maurice Raphael - #646 Overall, #39 OLB *Oregon beats Arizona 40-14. *California and FSU are now the top two teams.

Week 10: #18 Idaho (5-1) at Louisiana-Lafayette (0-8)
The Sun Belt is just terrible this season. We easily destroy Louisiana-Lafayette. It's over by halftime as we have a 47-7 lead. We rack up 537 total yards. Code:
QB Newsome 16-24-202-4-0 RB Young 15-129-0, 2-30-0 RB Luther 16-68-0, 1-24-0 WR Greene 5-79-1 TE McGregor 5-46-2 WR Newsome 4-60-1 DE Degley 3 tackles, 2 sacks CB Foreman 2 tackles, 2 INT, 1 TD *New Recruits: G Nathan Knight - #201 Overall, #12 G ILB Jack Newman - #565 Overall, #31 ILB *Arizona almost pulls one out, but loses to Washington 28-20. *Still 5 undefeated teams and they keep jumping around in the rankings. Right now it's: California, Notre Dame, FSU, USC, and Texas A&M.

Week 11: #15 Idaho (6-1) at Middle Tennessee State (2-5)
Well, this was a weird one. We struggle converting 3rd downs and have to settle for several FG's. A fumble and an INT keep it close and it's a 6-6 tie at the half. We get stopped in the red zone again early in the 3rd quarter and hit the FG. That was all the scoring for the 2nd half as our defense holds on for the 9-6 victory. Code:
QB Newsome 16-32-257-0-1 RB Young 14-119-0 WR Newsome 7-96-0 WR Greene 4-98-0 ILB Newton 10 tackles, 3 assists DE Perkins 3 tackles, 1 assist, 2.5 sacks *New Recruits: TE Skip Mayes - #312 Overall, #14 TE DT Grady Woodson - #575 Overall, #37 DT *Cal and FSU drop from the unbeatens. Notre Dame, USC, and Texas A&M are the top 3. *Arizona avoids a winless season with a 24-21 victory over Washington State.

Week 12: #12 Idaho (7-1) at #22 Troy (7-2)
The winner of this game clinches the Sun Belt championship and Newsome picks the right time to shine. He throws a 25 yard TD pass to give us a 14-7 lead right before the half. Then he leads us on two 3rd quarter scoring drives, several times using his legs to pick up yardage. This gives us enough of a cushion, especially with the defense shutting Troy down in the 2nd half. Code:
QB Newsome 19-31-250-2-1, 8-52-0 RB Young 21-91-1, 5-29-0 WR Gotchy 5-95-1 ILB Newton 9 tackles, 4 assists *New Recruits: S Conrad Montgomery - #604 Overall, #30 S CB Dwight Grayson - #918 Overall, #73 CB *California beats Arizona 52-0 *USC, Notre Dame, and Texas A&M remain undefeated. USC and Notre Dame will play next week.

Week 13: Utah State (4-5) at #12 Idaho (8-1)
We come out to an early lead, hitting two 1st quarter FG's and then a 68 yard TD pass in the 2nd quarter. However, Newsome struggles for most of the game, throwing three picks, and Utah State takes advantage. A TD right before the half makes it 12-7, and then they go ahead early in the 4th on a TD run. Facing a 14-12 deficit, Newsome throws 7 straight incompletions to end the game. Our defense played a spirited game, but Newsome's mistakes were too costly. Code:
QB Newsome 11-23-198-1-3 WR Newsome 2-82-1 ILB Brutley 13 tackles, 5 assists ILB Newton 10 tackles, 7 assists *New Recruit: S Conrad Montgomery - #604 Overall, #30 S *Our potential recruit at Punter waited until the last minute to say no to us, so we will be without a scholarship Punter next season. I look for an academic walk-on to fulfill the role for a year. *USC beat Notre Dame and Texas A&M stays undefeated, but FSU's win over Miami vaults them into 2nd even with 1 loss.

Week 14: #35 Boise State (6-4) at #16 Idaho (8-2)
Of all the losses we've suffered against Boise over the years, this one hurts the most. And it was almost our most glorious comeback. With 20 seconds left and a 3 pt deficit, Newsome completes a 51 yard pass to put us in FG range and send the game into OT. We score on 1st OT, they respond. We hold them to a FG on 2nd OT. A 3rd down sack makes it 4th and 17, but for some reason the coach doesn't call for my 100 Accuracy/100 Distance Kicker to try the 49 yard FG and instead goes for it. The pass is incomplete and we lose. Code:
QB Newsome 17-35-255-2-3 RB Young 16-120-2 ILB Newton 20 tackles, 7 assists, 1 INT ILB Brutley 10 tackles, 2 assists *Arizona State beats Arizona 24-7. Arizona is now 6-71 since this dynasty began. *Texas A&M loses the rivalry game to Texas and FSU solidifies their #2 ranking, so it will be USC-FSU in the title game.

Week 16: #26 Idaho (8-3) vs. Jacksonville (9-2)
Marino Bowl (Coral Gables, FL) The interception bug is still affecting Newsome as he throws three picks for the third game in a row. At least this time he tosses 4 TD's to go with them. This helps keeps us in front of an exciting game with big plays, and we manage to pull away late for another bowl victory. Code:
QB Newsome 18-32-270-4-3 RB Young 25-91-0, 2-30-1 WR Newsome 8-155-2 CB Person 3 tackles, 2 assists, 2 INT DE Degley 3 tackles, 1 assist, 1.5 sacks *We matched last year's record and probably could've done better if I went with one of our more experienced QB's, but hopefully the development for Newsome will pay off next year.

2011 Idaho Vandals
National Ranking: 31st Sun Belt Ranking: 1st Recruiting Ranking: 11th Code:
Newsome did develop some and I'm going to go with him again this year. Displeased with Elliss' Avoid INT rating. Code:
Young is a beast and I'll try to throw more runs into the gameplan this year. Code:
After our bowl game, our top WR Korey Newsome committed a violation of team rules. I suspended him. He didn't react well and has decided to leave the team. Tough loss, but we still have plenty of talent here and my two new recruits look fantastic. Code:
Probably the best line we've had yet. And my Freshmen are all very good. Code:
Emerson is very green, but just a walk-on. I'll find a recruit in this year's class to replace him. Code:
Not happy about how these guys are developing. Will have to look at my Time Management settings. Code:
The loss of Newton really hurts here and this group isn't as strong as in recent years. At least Newman is a solid recruit. Code:
Pretty good group here. Hopefully we can improve our pass defense, which gave up too many big plays last season.

Week 1: BYU (0-0) at #28 Idaho (0-0)
Not a great start to the season for Newsome as he throws two picks, including a pick six, and completes less than half his passes. However, he comes through in the clutch with two 4th quarter TD passes and our terrific defensive effort (6 turnovers) stymied BYU all game long. Code:
QB Newsome 12-26-224-2-2 RB Young 27-101-1 WR Monroe 5-76-1 WR Greene 4-73-1, 1 kick return for TD ILB Brutley 8 tackles, 1 assist, 2 sacks S Walton 6 tackles, 1 INT CB Hanks 5 tackles, 3 assists, 2 INT CB Austin 1 tackle, 1 INT, 1 TD *Marshall beats Arizona 50-10.

#8 Idaho (1-0) at #41 Boston College (0-0)
We build a big lead early with two TD drives and then a pick six. Boston College tries to get back in it with a TD of their own, but we finish off another TD drive right before the half for a 28-7 lead and never look back. The defense plays a terrific game, picking off 4 passes and only allowing 6 completions in 28 attempts. Newsome was mostly solid, but once again threw too many picks. Code:
QB Newsome 27-46-423-4-3 RB Young 24-136-2 WR Harding 7-85-1 WR Gotchy 6-118-1 WR Monroe 5-108-0 CB Foreman 2 tackles, 2 INT, 1 TD S Isaacson 3 tackles, 3 assists, 1 INT *Nebraska beats Arizona 42-7

Week 5: Idaho (2-0) at North Texas (1-1)
After a slow start (scoreless 1st quarter), this game turns into one of our most complete performances in a long time. Newsome has 362 yards and no picks, Young has another 100 yard game, and the defense completely shuts down North Texas' pass game (opposing QB was 10-34-147-0-0). Code:
QB Newsome 22-34-362-3-0 RB Young 23-141-2, 5-48-1 WR Gotchy 5-98-1 WR Monroe 3-54-1 *We lose two starters on defense, DE Will Brill and and OLB Russell Colwell, for 8 weeks. *Oregon beats Arizona 42-20

Week 6: Arkansas State (0-3) at #13 Idaho (3-0)
Newsome's problems with INT's returns as he throws 3 this week. It didn't end up mattering because Arkansas State is a terrible team, but it's definitely something we need to figure out. Our defense pitches a shutout while holding them to 229 total yards. Code:
QB Newsome 22-33-280-2-3 RB Young 23-89-1, 5-53-1 WR Gotchy 6-78-0 WR Greene 5-80-0 ILB Brutley 12 tackles, 2 sacks *New Recruit: RB Scott Barnes - #29 Overall, #3 RB *California beats Arizona 52-17 *Still lots of unbeatens left. Texas and Michigan are currently 1 and 2.

Week 8: #48 Louisiana-Monroe (3-1) at #10 Idaho (4-0)
I adjust the passing distances and Newsome avoids INT's this week. However, our offense struggles a bit due to two fumbles from Young and it's only a 14-0 halftime lead. We build on that lead, but LA-Monroe makes it interesting with a 77 yard TD run, but a pick six and Monroe TD pass put it away. Code:
QB Newsome 20-29-294-3-0 RB Young 22-87-1, 4-76-0 WR Greene 5-63-0 WR Harding 4-52-1 ILB Brutley 5 tackles, 4 assists, 2 INT CB Foreman 5 tackles, 1 INT, 1 TD DE Degley 4 tackles, 2 sacks *Young suffers a Sprained Knee and is currently listed as Doubtful. *New Recruits: WR JC Lawler - #16 Overall, #2 WR T Gene Lang - #160 Overall, #23 T K Irving Johnson - #252 Overall, #5 K CB Kerry Dawkins - #756 Overall, #62 CB *Oregon State beats Arizona 28-0. *USC and Texas retain the top two spots.

Week 9: #9 Idaho (5-0) at Middle Tennessee State (3-2)
Not even close for a moment. Newsome throws 4 first half TD passes to stake us to a 28-7 lead and Middle Tenn never gets closer than 18 pts in the 2nd half. Our defense held them to 138 total yards. Code:
QB Newsome 23-33-388-6-0 RB Young 22-89-0, 2-23-0 WR Greene 9-157-2 WR Gotchy 6-126-2 WR Monroe 4-63-2 DE Degley 2 tackles, 1 assist, 2.5 sacks DE Lyon 2 tackles, 2 sacks ILB Brutley 2 tackles, 2 assists, 1 INT, 1 TD *New Recruit: DE Corwin Linquist - #637 Overall, #70 DE *Oregon State beats Arizona 28-0. *USC and Texas retain the top two spots. *There are currently 10 unbeaten teams, including both us and Boise State. Should be a big game this year.

Week 10: Louisiana-Lafayette (4-3) at #9 Idaho (6-0)
Another dominating performance against a bad Sun Belt team. We gain 540 total yards and hold them to 174 yards. Code:
QB Newsome 19-20-279-3-0 RB Young 15-103-2, 3-26-1 RB Crangle 20-83-0, 1-17-0 WR Gotchy 5-104-1 WR Monroe 4-74-0 WR Greene 4-69-0 DE Brill 4 tackles, 1 sack DE Degley 2 tackles, 2 sacks *New Recruits: G Randal Wiggins - #77 Overall, #6 G WR Dominic McIntyre - #249 Overall, #23 WR *UCLA beats Arizona 24-3. *USC and Texas retain top two spots.

Week 11: #9 Idaho (7-0) at New Mexico State (5-3)
Once again, it's not even close and Newsome is really firing on all cylinders at this point. He throws 3 TD passes in the 1st quarter alone, adds another in the 2nd quarter, and watches Stuvaints and Pierce play the 2nd half. Defense comes up with 5 picks this week. Code:
QB Newsome 12-16-234-4-0 RB Crangle 14-73-0, 1-14-0 RB Young 9-65-0 WR Monroe 5-131-1 WR Greene 5-115-3 CB Hanks 2 tackles, 1 INT, 1 TD DE Warren 4 tackles, 1.5 sacks New Recruits: WR Lamont Rypien - #95 Overall, #9 WR P Timothy Ackerman - #286 Overall, #3 P TE Conrad Becker - #600 Overall, #21 TE OLB Glen Ellison - #611 Overall, #27 OLB *Newsome now has the #1 QB rating in the country. *Washington State beats Arizona 31-0. *BCS update: Both USC and Texas lose. USC only falls to #2 and Ohio State moves into #1. We move up to #7, right behind Boise State at #6.

Week 12: #9 Idaho (8-0) at #28 Utah State (5-3)
We face some adversity against the only other good team in the Sun Belt. Newsome throws his first picks in several weeks, including a pick six that gives Utah State a 14-0 lead in the 1st quarter. We regroup and score on three straight TD drives before the half to take a 21-14 lead. We run that lead to 28-17 in the 4th quarter, but Utah State stages a comeback and ties it up with 1:54 left. Newsome completes three passes to put us in FG range, but the FG wasn't needed as Young breaks through for a 19 yard TD run to win the game. Code:
QB Newsome 19-36-274-2-2 RB Young 16-67-2, 4-47-0 WR Greene 8-158-1 ILB Brutley 13 tackles, 1 assist, 2 sacks OLB Gilman 7 tackles, 3 assists, 1 sack CB Hanks 5 tackles, 1 INT *New Recruits: S Lorenzo Shapiro - #582 Overall, #30 S DT Gerald Meier - #676 Overall, #45 DT *Stanford beats Arizona 30-3. *Ohio State and USC retain the top two spots. We are still 7th and Boise is 6th.

Week 13: Troy (5-4) at #9 Idaho (9-0)
Bad news early as Young goes down with an injury and will miss the rest of the season. Crangle does a decent job in backup duty and Newsome's solid performance has us with a 21-7 lead int he 4th quarter. However, we cannot run out the clock and Troy scores two 4th quarter TD's to send the game into OT. We hold them to a FG on their first possession and Newsome throws a TD pass to win the game. Code:
QB Newsome 22-34-315-3-1 RB Crangle 27-99-1, 3-33-1 WR Gotchy 5-105-1 WR Greene 5-67-0 CB Austin 6 tackles, 1 assist, 1 INT *The stage is set for the huge showdown next week. Both us and Boise State are undefeated. Boise State is 5th in the BCS rankings and we are now 6th. Would be a great time to finally break our losing streak against them. *Ohio State, USC, Virginia Tech, and Texas are the top 4 teams heading into the final 2 weeks.

Week 14: #5 Boise State (11-0) at #6 Idaho (10-0)
Well, that sucked. Boise State's QB absolutely shreds our defense (24-27-424-4-0) and we cannot get any offensive momentum going with a pitiful 3 for 14 on 3rd down performance. Our running game was nonexistent without Young. We are now 0-8 against Boise State. Code:
QB Newsome 17-27-158-0-0 WR Gotchy 6-78-0 ILB Brutley 8 tackles, 2 assists *Arizona State beats Arizona 41-6. Arizona finishes 1-10. *Ohio State and USC retain the top two spots. The only drama left is if a win in the Big 12 Championship is enough to vault Texas into the top 2. *To make matters worse, Newsome injured his wrist and will be out for the bowl game.

Week 16: #13 Idaho (10-1) at Florida Gulf Coast (9-2)
Well this was a wild one. Both offenses seemingly move at will and trade scores throughout the 1st half. FGCU takes advantage of one of Stuvaints' three picks to make it a 2 score game midway through the 3rd quarter. Terrance Greene returns the ensuing kickoff for a TD, keeping it close. Our defense finally gets a stop and Stuvaints finds Greene to tie it up with 13:00 in the 4th. FGCU comes right back down and retakes the lead on a 25 yard TD pass. They get the ball back with a chance to put the game away, but Chad Isaacson picks off a pass and takes it to the house to tie the game up. A 3 and out gives us a chance to win the game in regulation. Stuvaints leads us into FG range and Copeland kicks the game winner with no time left. Code:
QB Stuvaints 26-44-425-3-3 WR Greene 9-129-1, Kickoff TD Return WR Gotchy 4-87-1 S Isaacson 6 tackles, 1 assist, 1 INT, 1 TD *As frustrating as Stuvaints play was at times, I do think it's a good story that he got a chance to start in his last college game and came away with the victory.

Starting to really hate Boise State. Odd to me that you couldn't sell it out, either, when you both are undefeated.
Yet another thing to fix for TCY2!

You and me both. The problem with attendance is our City Economics, which are rated as "Lousy". Our attendance has been steadily rising at least. But yeah I agree that there's no way that game wouldn't have been sold out, even if it was tons of Boise State fans making the trip.

Graduating Seniors
QB Reuben Stuvaints - #268 Overall, #25 QB Stuvaints was meant to be the savior when I recruited him and I was hoping to be able to start him as a true Freshman. But I never liked the way his ratings looked (including a low Avoid INT number). He did start as a redshirt Freshman and had a few moments as starter over his first two seasons. But it became clear that he wasn't going take us to the next level and lost his job to redshirt Freshman Pete Newsome. Stuvaints did start the final game his career, and (despite 3 INT's) led us to an exciting victory. Finished with 6975 yards passing, 59 TD, and 30 INT. Honors: Sun Belt Conference MVP (2008), Sun Belt Top Offensive Player (2008), Sun Belt 1st Team (2008), Sun Belt 2nd Team (2009) Ratings: 24/62 to 60/62 RB Drew Kemp - #747 Overall, #65 RB Was caught between RB's who were better before (Bob Phillips, Dana Luther) and after (Alex Young) he came to Idaho. Never started a game. Finished with 446 yards rushing and 3 TD. Ratings: 28/76 to 32/76 WR Rob Monroe - #538 Overall, #45 WR Pretty solid results from a guy who wasn't ranked very high. His best year was as a Freshman, when he had 952 yards receiving. Never replicated that due to the superior talent coming behind him, but still had a nice career overall. He started 30 games over 4 years and finished with 148 catches, 2534 yards, and 24 TD. Honors: Sun Belt 2nd Team (2008) Ratings: 25/79 to 53/78 WR Steven Harding - #637 Overall, #52 WR Had a couple of decent seasons in backup duty, but never cracked the starting lineup. Caught 71 passes for 936 yards and 9 TD in his career. Ratings: 32/59 to 54/54 C Randall McNaught - #556 Overall, #30 C Was never develop his already limited skills and languished on the bench for 4 years. Participated in 157 plays in his whole career. Ratings: 12/54 to 37/54 G Rico Carlson - #609 Overall, #53 G Another player who couldn't develop. Carlson did get to start most of the season as a Sophomore, but later found himself on the bench behind much better players. Ratings: 3/78 to 35/78 T Kenneth Wayman - #651 Overall, #57 T A 4 year starter aside from injury problems in his Sophomore year. Wayman did give up a ton of sacks, but still played better than expected given his recruiting ranking. Ratings: 11/63 to 60/63 K Corey Copeland - #187 Overall, #5 K One of the best kickers in college football over the past 4 seasons. He did have a career lowlight as a Sophomore when he missed an extra point in OT against Washington State. He rebounded from that nicely, hitting 74 of 89 FG's in his career, including a 60 yarder as a Junior. Honors: National 2nd Team (2009), Sun Belt 1st Team (2009), Sun Belt 1st Team (2010), Sun Belt 1st Team (2011) Ratings: 12/83 to 95/95 DE Leon Degley - #755 OVerall, #71 DE Never cracked the full time starting lineup, but played as the DE on passing downs for his last two seasons and managed 14.5 sacks in that span. Ratings: 14/52 to 28/52 DT Nick Manning - #595 Overall, #33 DT Started as a true Freshman and never missed a game. A reliable presence in the middle, he finished with 93 tackles, 45 assists, 23 TFL's, and 6 sacks in his career. Ratings: 26/49 to 51/51 CB Phil Coleman - #565 Overall, #38 CB Limited academics limited his development and he never started a game in 4 years. Picked off 2 passes in his career. Ratings: 22/56 to 33/56 S Stanley Walton - #603 Overall, #42 S Was a bad fit for my defense as he was terrible at Man to Man defense, which is a majority of what I run. He did finally crack the starting lineup as a Senior and picked off 2 passes Ratings: 31/54 to 47/54

2012 Idaho Vandals
National Ranking: 16th Sun Belt Ranking: 1st Recruiting Ranking: 19th Code:
It's the Newsome show for two more seasons and Strickland looks like he'll be the guy to step in after Newsome graduates. Code:
Lack of depth at RB. Will have to take the shirt off Barnes if there's an injury. Young has been unstoppable and Crangle looks like he could develop to greatness himself. Code:
Harmon developed nicely and looks to be a 4 year starter at WR. Greene and Gotchy are two of the best in college football. Code:
We have some great starters on the line, but too many guys haven't developed well at all. New recruits have tons of potential. Code:
Some great potential for our special teams. Code:
Just like with the OL, too many of these guys aren't developing. Code:
Brutley and Gilman are great. Hoping to get some development from Urpsis. Code:
Definitely the strength of my defense. Expecting great things from this group this year.

Week 1: #26 Oregon State (0-0) at #16 Idaho (0-0)
We start right where we left off last season. Newsome throws a couple TD passes to give us a 21-3 halftime lead. The momentum shifts when Newsome throws his only pick of the day and it is returned for a TD. Oregon State adds another TD to move within 3 pts, but Newsome regroups with 3 more TD passes to put the game away. Code:
QB Newsome 30-45-430-5-1 RB Young 15-69-0, 7-74-1 WR Greene 7-157-3 WR Harmon 6-83-0 WR Gotchy 5-70-0 DE Carpenter 2 tackles, 2 sacks Total Yards: 602-293 *Ole Miss beats Arizona 36-10. Arizona brought in another recruiting class ranked in the 100's, so I don't think they're going to be much better anytime soon.
