Freshmen Jaden Greathouse, Rico Flores, and Jeremyiah Love all make the depth chart for game one.
Pat Coogan starts the season as the starting LG, but expect to see Billy Schrauth get some run as well.
The running back rotation should be interesting to watch today, with everyone behind Audric Estime listed as an “OR”.

	29	Christian Gray (Fr)	5-11.75	189
or	6	Clarence Lewis (Sr)	5-11.5	202

Josh Burnham listed as a reserve at both DE spots is interesting. Expect to see him sooner rather than later.
All of the ORs at safety might not be the best sign for how the staff feels about its safety depth. Would have liked to see some more definitive depth there.
