I think Davis shows up enough to keep their defense somewhat honest .. numbers like 15 of 25 for 225 yards would suffice to help move chains and spread things out some for run game. Certainly the X factor in this game along with the receivers that will need to step up ... looking at Haley, Rutkiewicz, Blackman, and Nagel to show us something this week.
But the other aspect is RBs Robinson and Proctor .. I must say, neither has been as explosive as I expected to this point. Proctor has shown us some burst here and there and has been contributing some .. just not as much as I thought. Some of that is how much defenses were stacking the box until Davis made them pay for it against NAU.
But also thinking it seemed like Spack protected Robinson much more this offseason compared to prior seasons .. so I'm wondering if he was as game ready this year as he was to start his JR season. he doesn't yet seem to be at full speed & explosiveness. Hoping the 2 week layoff with Bison coming to town will be what get's him back to his peak like we saw last year. Maybe it's just me, but I don't think he is at that level yet this year.
This would be a great week to bust out to show Bison, MVFC, and FCS what our offense is capable of ina big game.
