It’s essentially an inevitable truth now that La Tech will win nine games. Just ask the mother site.
At the start of the season there were many questions about filling positions. After two years of running graduate transfers at quarterback, Skip Holtz decided to stick with Ryan Higgins. He also needed to find a replacement for start running back, Kenneth Dixon. Lastly, most of the defense was gone.
Holtz was able to piece together a pretty effective offense. Ryan Higgins had a huge turnaround season few saw coming. Dixon’s replacements, Jarred Craft and Boston Scott became a two-headed monster, but Tech made up the slack by fielding one of the nation’s best passing offenses.
