How much weight do you put on Gibbons' success during practice, when he had apparent success last fall practice (unless I am mistaken) yet struggled during the games? On the other hand, how much weight do you put on Wile's lack of experience in front of 110K people!

<br>I'm guessing Gibbons kicks FGs for the Opener. If he's good, it's a happy surprise. If he sucks, then put Wile in. If Wile plays the Opener and sucks (even if just due to nerves and not inability) it might damage his confidence. This is a similar strategy to NFL rookie quarterbacks, I think.
