1. If Mills had played vs Oregon, would the outcome have been much different? I think the answer is yes - would have been much closer score.
2. Thoughts on West vs McKee. I think West has improved a lot since last year, but the raw talent of McKee was an eye opener.
3. Who should get the next start? My inclination is to say West, but give McKee ample playing time to help his development.
1. Oregon wouldn't have taken its foot off the gas pedal and would have won by 7-10. But it would have been fun to watch, unlike anything after halftime last night. Also, Mills doesn't play defense but he probably tackles as well as half of them do
2. West is better than he was last year (couldn't have been much worse), but not by enough and he's still not good. McKee is at least as good right now and is only going to get better, at a faster pace, and with a much higher ceiling
3. McKee hands down, with the grad transfer from Air Force playing a series or two just to mix things up
