Redshirt freshman Tyler Robinson and Dante Warren are locked in the battle, with Jake Breske assuming the fourth string role. Both QB's have yet to distinguish themselves from each other. Robinson had the chance after Warren threw the pick, but then Robinson threw a pick on his own. Neither QB has been overly impressive, but it is also just the spring game. Robinson was the second string QB last year and Warren was named the USD Scout Team player of the year. One advantage Warren clearly has over Robinson is his ability to use his legs. A few times tonight, Warren has escaped the rush and ran for the first down. Robinson has the experience over Warren in that category. I will give the edge to Robinson, but I would be comfortable with either one, which makes the depth chart look a little better.

Well, that is the end of the spring game, the offense won 34-28. The offense scored late on a great fade route by freshman Dustin Nowotny. Sheppard threaded the ball in to Nowotny with an impressive throw. Sheppard put the ball in exactly the right spot as two backs were right next by Nowotny. Nowotny also made an outstanding catch and held onto the ball and was able to stay in bounds. I think Nowotny could be a star next year.

Well, that wraps it up for the spring game. Have a great weekend.
