  After the season, [Justin] Britt (6-5, 300) moved from left tackle to guard and now considers the spring his chance to audition for a starting job, even when Wuebbels fully recovers.

  “Nothing against Austin, because we’re good friends,” Britt said, “but it gives me an opportunity to shine and show them I can do it and maybe get some rotation time with Austin.”

  There’s a battle brewing at right guard, too. Junior Jayson Palmgren opened the spring as the top choice to replace three-year starter Kurtis Gregory, but the depth reshuffled after Saturday’s scrimmage, leaving sophomore Travis Ruth as the top guard on the right side. Ruth (6-3, 305) has been a backup guard and center the last two seasons.
