Why do we always seem to bury the best QB we have on the 3rd string? Wasn't Lefevre also a third stringer when he took over?
I think we'll be OK (5-6 wins) - not good (7-8 wins), just OK.
LeFevour was Brunner's backup. He may have been #3 going into the fall of 2006, IDK.
It was a legit three-man race for the starting QB spot this fall, so I'm not shocked by this result. As for explanation, looks like Rush, as with LeFevour and Kent Smith, is a gamer. Not always the best-looking in practice but money when it matters.**
I predicted seven wins before the season. Nothing I've seen so far tells me we are incapable of that.
**Disclaimer: yes, it was just one game, but I already see more upside in Rush than I ever did in RR. Good instincts already on display and touch to go with a strong arm.

Enjoy the fun, CMU and NIU fans.
Until hockey season, adios...
Believe me, we're on the same boat...
