What to watch: Sunday is the first of five games against non-Ohio teams for No. 6 St. Edward this season, and it could prove to be the toughest of the bunch. Gilman was a disappointing 7-3 last season but should be much improved with 15 starters back, including Florida State-bound senior quarterback
Kai Locksley. St. Edward has six returning offensive starters and seven back on defense from an 11-2 team that averaged over 42 points per game. There are at least six bona fide FBS prospects in the Eagles' senior class, including Michigan-bound cornerback-receiver
Shaun Crawford and South Florida-committed quarterback
Brett Kean.
