Player of the game predictions (South Dakota)

Who do you think will have the biggest game vs South Dakota?

Offense: Peter Nguyen- The run game in the zone read will open up immensely once the south Dakota defense realizes Trent Mckinneys running ability on the keeper. Peter will break off some long gains and do what he always does in the screen game. Peter will be electric in the open field. I expect over 100 yards rushing and two TDs in one form or the other.

Defense: Alex Bienamenn- South Dakotas Oline is in trouble. Especially the guards and centers who have to try and block Alex B in the 3 technique. This kid is one of the most explosive guys off the line of scrimmage we have seen in awhile. He has put on some serious weight and muscle since coming here and will surprise a lot of people with his athleticism from that position. Those who don't know about this kid will find out real soon. I expect at least one sack and multiple tackles for loss.

Who do you think will have the biggest game?
 
On offense I'm picking the entire offensive line. They're pigs and want to show people they can control the line of scrimmage.

On defense I'm picking JK. Has a real nose for the ball and plays with extreme intensity on every play.
Lets get this thing started!

Go Griz!!
 
I like your picks WaGriz - I'd probably pick those exactly the same way - the only thing I think different is that I expect Pete to also have some big returns as USD will be REAL young in their ST coverage. However I'll go a different route and grab two dark-horse picks.

Offense: Sam Gratton, look for possibly double-digit catches and two TDs. (it's a stretch but hey why not).

Defense: Tyrone Holmes, USD O-line has little to no knowledge of this kid, they won't give the tackle help until he's got 2 sacks... and I bet he finishes with 3. (This could be said for Zach Wagenmann as well... one of the two will have a big day as USD will predictably chip and double-team Harris to start).
 
I like the choices, however, I believe Jordan Canada will explode for the long runs he was recruited for (132 Yds rushing) and Jordan Tripp will have a superior game on defense, this being his first game back after the injury...he is hungry!
