A couple of things to note:
-Starting Center Ben Jacoby, who had been recovering from some ankle issues and a concussion, and Starting Left Guard Joe Gilbert will not be at the Dome on Thursday night. Both are in Grad School and have night classes that will prevent them from being there.
-Back up Tackle Grant King and starting LB Jake Muasua will be out as well for precautionary reasons.

My thoughts:
-This is Spring Practice #15. That's it. While it is great for the fans to get a taste of football in the Dome for the first time since November, the coaches are not always thrilled about a change in their schedule (the team had been practicing in the morning).
-The increased likelihood of injury to key guys will likely move many starters off the field very early.
-This is an opportunity for younger players to get snaps with the lights on.
-DISCLAIMER: DO NOT READ INTO STATS FROM THIS GAME
- WRs like Brett Beidel and Zach Jones dropping passes are not indicative of our offense.
They are walk ons and will not be contributing in the Fall.
What to Watch For:
-Look for certain depth at positions. Take a look a how back up Center Tim Wynn does tonight (#50).
-Look at Nate Anthony at CB, Sam Burkhalter at ILB, Akeen Felder at LB, Cole Moon at H Back.
-Look at how QB Kelton Hill and QB Bo Schlechter look throwing the ball. Not necessarily is deep reserve guys are catching them but where they are hitting them.
-Look at the overall speed at our skill positions. This was something that I was encouraged by seeing key contributors who were faster and not carrying as much weight vs. muscle.
Looking forward to seeing you out in the Orange Lot and stop by and say hello!
