This is my prediction of the depth chart for the Wisconsin game as of today.

OFFENSE

QB - Jennings, Rivers, Rettig, Harris, Bolden
RB - Fournette, Magee, Hilliard, Williams
FB - Neighbors
TE - Dickson, Smith, Gordon, Stokes, Washington
WR - Dural, Leslie, Peterson, Upchurch
WR - Dupre, Diarse, Quinn, Spears, Chark
OT - L. Collins, Pocic, Boutte
OT - Hawkins, Washington, Boutte
OG - V. Alexander, Austin, Dodd, Brumfield
OG - Pocic, Fanaika, Malone, Clapp
C - Porter, Pocic, Dodd

DEFENSE

DE - Rasco, Bower, Maclin, Neal, Teuhema
DE - Hunter, Allen, Herron, D. Clark, Patterson
DT - Lacouture, Valentine, M. Johnson, Godchaux
DT - Q. Thomas, Bain, Gilmore, Lealaimatafao
MLB - Welter, Louis, Garrett, M. Jones, Feist
OLB - K. Alexander, Beckwith, D. Alexander
OLB - D. Jones, Riley, Feist
FS - Adams, Martin, Mills, Battle
SS - Thompson, Jefferson, Voorhies
CB - White, J. Collins, Paris
CB - Robinson, Mills, D. Thomas, Gage
(Mills will be the nickel back)

PK - Delahoussaye, Hairston, Gamble
KO - Hairston, Delahoussaye, Gamble
P - Keehn, Domingue

KR - Dural, Magee, White
PR- Dural, Adams, White

What would you change?

Fournette might be above Hilliard but Magee has earned the number 1 spot at least going into spring

I agree. Especially considering Fournette isn't even on campus.

Melvin Jones to FB and will play a lot in tandem with Neighbors

I should have clarified that this is my shot at opening game starters (my opinion) prior to spring practice. I think Fournette is the main RB with Magee as the change of pace and Hilliard used situationally. Obviously, Hilliard and Magee will fight it out this spring to see who is the "incumbent" going into fall practice.

Fournette will not be the #1 back at the start. Hilliard and Magee will get the majority of the carries at the start and LF will come in like Jeremy Hill did in 2012. There will be a lot of rotation though.

I think your WR Depth Chart is really good, but I would move Dupre behind Diarse and move Quinn up

You might be right. My theory here is that with the QB position, experience is really important and if Jennings got hurt in the first quarter, I expect Les would send in Rivers.

Now, Harris could light it up in the Spring and change the whole picture. Of course, he could also come in during Spring and show that he still needs some seasoning.

boutte will play guard for us, dude is a mauler.

Offense is fine other than that.

Defense:
Not sure about m jones and beckwith. jones may play fb and beckwith could end up staying at de. I think Jefferson starts at FS next year and thompson at ss. Adams may be able wot work his way in there though.

Very possibly. I probably put him at OT because we are so thin there.

We REALLY need the line to stay healthy next year and we need two or three OTs in the 2015 recruiting class. We're started off right with the Teuhema kid!

I thought I read that they abandoned that experiment. Could be wrong.

I agree with no FR starting first game. Also I see Pocic starting at RT. I think he has a tackle's build and agility.

seeing as Mills has started every game of his career, I'd bet that he'd keep that going. at either S or CB.

I think Washington and Boutte will have a say in who takes over for Trai

also, Beckwith and Feist at Mike. Louis back out to OLB.

Melvin Jones is a FB

and Fournette won't start from day 1

While I agree with this, Hilliard better come out swinging this spring or he won't touch the ball much in 2014 IMO. I know he had the personal stuff going on but he lost a step this last season and I hope he gets it back this off season. Love watching him run downhill!!

I sure hope this changes.

Would be a hell of waste of Washington's talent.

he should RS. He's too small to block effectively in the SEC and it makes no sense to waste a year of his eligibility to catch 2 passes like we did with desean smith, it's unfair to the kid imo

Ohio state started Maurice clarret the first game and had seniors on the team.
