| BUFFALO: The one thing Buffalo has going for itself is a good running game. Last season, RB Branden Oliver (1,395 yds, 13 TD) was the only bright spot for the Bulls. Head coach Jeff Quinn faces a difficult decision with no standout starting QB on the roster. Without a decent passing game, teams will be able to stack eight in the box and stop Oliver in his tracks. The Bulls have a good offensive line, but if Alex Zordich or Joe Licata can't provide stability at the QB position, that won't mean a thing. The Bulls also have weak linebackers and an underwhelming defensive line. Last season they struggled getting after the quarterback and couldn't stop the run even if they knew it was coming. They are, however, getting back 16 starters to work with. | | N ILLINOIS: Northern Illinois had a high-flying offense last season that revolved around QB Chandler Harnish, but Harnish is no longer around. Now it's QB Jordan Lynch's turn to run an offense that will be tailored to fit his play style as a running quarterback. Junior RB Akeem Daniels (303 rush yds, 3 TD) is looking to step in and be the next great Huskies rusher after seeing only limited playing time in 2011. Daniels will be up for the challenge as he is also going to be a pass-catching option for Lynch, who can dump the ball off to Daniels if he can't find his No. 1 WR Martel Moore (747 rec yds, 7 TD). Northern Illinois is, however, only returning one starter from its offensive line, which doesn't bode well for this offense. The Huskies' defense was banged up last year, but these injured players will all be back and ready to go this year. Last season they struggled against the run, but if they can stay healthy they may be able to overcome their inexperience on the defensive line with the talent of players like DE Alan Baxter (4.5 sacks) and a great group of linebackers. |
