I know there are a lot of area for improvement for the Buffs this year. QB play is probably at the top of everybody's list.
The more I have thought about this though, I think the key to the season this year is going to be our RB. With a new QB this year it is going to be critical that we can control the ball when we need to and establish a strong running attack. I also think a strong running game will help this O-line get in a rhythm. We have some younger guys on the line again this year, and letting them have a running game mentality should help them find their grove early in the season.
Hugh Charles has got to start out the season strong and establish himself as THE every down back on this team we have hoped we would become. We all know he has game breaking speed once outside, but I want to see him hit the line quick and then use that speed to beat the LB once he get through the hole. If Hugh Charles can emerge as RB who can give you that 100+ yards game on in given week this team will take on a much different look this year.
