No signal caller returns, nor do any of the primary ball carriers from a year ago. Although this may be a rebuilding year, it could lay a foundation for a deep run into the playoffs next year (as they had in the 2005 semifinals). Team speed may be better than last year, but the Spartans will likely be relying on their ability to control the line of scrimmage.
