Since Barnes and Johnson have been getting reps for this game – I feel better about our game plan compared to a real last-minute decision not to play Cam.
I suspect that with a strong offensive line and running backs, you will see a better, more confident Bryson Barnes. I hope to see Johnson utilized in the right situations where he can be successful. We need to pass to open up the running game. So I would be surprised if Barnes doesn’t have at least 200 yards passing, probably more.
Scott Mitchell thinks Barnes will not run much. I disagree. I think the Utes will run the read option with Barnes.
