The Huskies put out their first depth chart since spring today and it contains major surprises on each side of the ball.
Jordan White-Frisbee is listed as the starter at left guard, beating out incumbent Ryan Tolar. (Juan Garcia is listed as the starting center. Chris Polk as the starting tailback.)
On defense, late-arriving true freshman Senio Kelemete is listed as the starter at defensive tackle alongside Cameron Elisara.
(The defense shown is a 4-3.)
And the team is young -- 10 freshmen or sophomores in the starting lineup -- five on offense, five on defense -- and only six seniors.
Meanwhile, the Eugene Register Guard is reporting that Oregon quarterback Nate Costa will miss eight to 10 weeks after undergoing knee surgery.
Oregon coach Mike Bellotti spoke to UW media today before that news was announced. However, the coach said that he expected redshirt sophomore Justin Roper to start against UW. Roper led the Ducks to their Sun Bowl win last season, and while he seemed to be running behind Costa in camp, Bellotti said Roper was the top quarterback in the Ducks' final two scrimmages.
