Default who's going to have the bigger day?

Unga or Locker, on the ground?

Locker will, although the total between the two will be less than 20 yards.

That might be the key stat of the day.

We've historically had a very difficult time running against Pac-10 teams, and this D looks susceptible to the QB rush (overpursuing and LB speed).

I'd put the over under on each to be about 80, and the fate of the game could very well rest in this.

Cool


Agreed, Locker should get about 70 and Unga should get about 80.

UNI was weak to the TE, and I think that UW is weak to the RB.

Unga.

UW's d line is bad. Although the one thing I was most disappointed in on Saturday was our inability to run the football against NIU. So maybe it will be Locker.

How did Locker do against Oregon? I think people are buying too much of the Locker hype.

Did anyone see Locker trying to sub himself out on a drive? I think it was their scoring drive and he was the one to put together the entire drive by himself with his running abilities and he was beat. He was tapping his helmet and looking at the sideline for the back-up to spell him after 2 different plays on the drive.

If BYU can contain the broken play Locker is nothing to fear. I think he gets 65 yards and Unga gets 90.
