FOOTBALL: Projected Starting Lineup for the First Game of the 2008 Season

Here's how I see it, right or wrong...

QB - Jake Christensen
RB - Shonn Greene
FB - Brett Morse
WR - Andy Brodell
WR - DJK
TE - Brandon Myers
OT - Kyle Calloway
OG - Rafael Eubanks
C - Rob Bruggeman
OG - Seth Olsen
OT - Brian Bulaga

DE - Adrian Clayborn
DT - Mitch King
DT - Matt Kroul
DE - Christian Ballard
LB - A.J. Edds
LB - Jacody Coleman
LB - Jeff Tarpinian (if he can't go, look for Jeremiha Hunter to start)
CB - Amari Spievey
CB - Bradley Fletcher
FS - Brett Greenwood
SS - Harold Dalton (Tillison will get a shot too)

KOS - Daniel Murray
PK - Trent Mossbrucker
P - Ryan Donahue
KR - DJK, Paul Chaney
PR - Brodell

Kuempel might start over Raf, but I just think Eubanks is too good to keep out of the starting lineup. Reisner is going to get a ton of PT, as are Bernstine, Tillison, and Sash. Also Stanzi is going to see a lot of snaps, as well.

Redshirts burned on Saturday: Jewel Hampton, Trent Mossbrucker, DeMarco Paine, Shaun Prater, Adam Robinson/Jeff Brinson, David Cato, Brad Herman. There will likely be a couple other guys on ST, some RS freshmen too... but I see these guys getting the early PT.

OTHER NOTES:
- Kirk confirmed Jake as the starter today.
- Nate Guillory has decided to transfer. Early yesterday morning, the rumors began that Nate had quit the team, and Kirk confirmed that today.
