This season we should see more 3 wide sets. Given the shorter rotation, who plays?

WR: Sheperd SR-to-be looked dominate the last 2 games of the season with 12 catches for 254 and 3 tds. He looks like he now completely understands the game, routs, and that he's bigger, faster and stronger than most. Prediction 900-1,100 yards

WR: Washington, SO-to-be....what a pleasant surprise! He looked better than any true Freshmen I can remember outside of Dez. This could be the best outside combo @ OSU in a long time. Prediction 700-900 yards

IR: Glidden, SR-to-be is easily the third best option if not higher considering how he played last year. Glidden knows how to get open and is very reliable. He will look to have another good season with Rudolph throwing his way. Prediction 300-500 yards depending on health

WR: Seales, JR-to-be, was an even bigger surprise than Washington in that Seales had a down year. He had trouble on the field and off, nearly got Glidden killed in the Bedlam game, and can no longer return to Whataburger. Hopefully he has put in the hard work required to get back to his former self and beyond. Seales is truly a wildcard as he has NFL potential. Prediction 300-500 yards, only because Washington is special and takes most of the reps.

WR: Lacy, SO-to-be started the opener in Dallas last year and really looks the part. The only thing people remember him from in season 1 was the missed block that caused the Walsh fumble in the opener. He was one of 2 true freshmen receivers to see the field last year and will look to build on that effort. I expect him to have a solid season giving Sheperd a breather from time to time...then for him to take a huge leap his JR year. Prediction 150-250 yards

IR: Brown, RSFR-to-be should spell Glidden on the inside from the sounds of things in camp. This will be an interesting spot because Glidden has been banged up at times. Prediction 150-250 yards

WR: Ateman, JR-to-be needs to get back in the fold after falling out the end of last season. He could be lethal at either inside or outside if he puts in the work, and has a great attitude. He is another wildcard, but is running out of time to make an impact. Prediction 200-400 yards

TE'S: 300-500 yards

I'm still not sure what this offense will look like next year. If the Stanford rout is where OSU is heading 3,300 yard seasons are in our future. If its a combination of that and the spread it could get up to 4,000+
