I'm getting the feeling Sanzo and Browning could be the keys to this season, especially the USC game. USC's secondary is good enough to keep Robo and Hartline in check but with Dane's amazing route running, he could burn them all night with short to intermediate routes. Think Gonzo vs. Texas in '06.  |

I agree to some extent, but SC's safeties are better than their CBs. Plus, with the LBers they have, I don't know how effective it would be to challenge them in the middle of the field.

The Sanzenbacher of last year has been replaced with the new and improved version. No longer a freshman learning the game, he'll emerge as a quality receiver with an edge. My reference is what I've seen in HS and '07 at tOSU. He played defense in HS as well and wasn't afraid to get into the mix. Granted CFB is another level with bigger, faster and equally talented players. Somehow I think he'll figure out a way to beat them offensively. If he can grow from this in '08 and improve his game he will squelch the Dane doubters and we'll all see him in a different light. Tressel will use him to the extent of his ability, and there is plenty of it. He's one player out of eleven, let the bundle strain but not break.

Moving to the receivers, and I hate love to say I told you so, but Posey looked great and may be on pace for that 400+ prediction. His touchdown was a glimpse of the shifts and speed he has and though he did get dinged-up taking his first real college hit, he could become a major factor for this team as a freshman. That and it was the first good thing that happened after the Wells injury and fans needed the boost. The kid with all of the pub coming out of camp, Dane Sanzenbacher, had one catch on the day: a four-yard sacrifice, compliments of Boeckman, who hung him out to dry.

Eleven Warriors ? The Win is Nice, but Bated Breath Waits
Got the wind knocked out of him, why were the receivers not open? Another look at the game recording may show otherwise. TB looks to his primary receivers and overlooks the others. I like to way Pryor stood in the pocket, he passed well and effectively. This offense should figure out a way to use them both and pass something other than 50 yards bombs to the Brians.

When the receiver calls for the ball, I can't agree that the QB hung him out to dry. The QB has to trust that the receiver sees the field and will get out of the way of the hit.
