Sophomore quarterback Evan Prater and senior quarterback Ben Bryant are expected to battle through fall camp for the opportunity to replace Ridder as the Bearcats' starter when they open the season Sept. 3 at Arkansas (3:30 p.m. on ESPN). Fickell said he will do everything he can over the next five weeks to put both Prater and Bryant in the best position to succeed. "It will be as much of a battle as it can possibly be," Fickell said. "You can't go live. You can't put quarterbacks live. It's just not so mething you do now. But knowing we've got five returning starters up front on the offensive line and a defensive line that's going to be the anchors to what it is that we do, we'll have an opportunity to really challenge the rest. Challenge the quarterba cks, challenge the back end of our defense, because there's a lot of new guys. It's not that it's going to be different, but I think we can try to script it and put those guys in some positions where hopefully we can do a better job of truly evaluating t hem and what they can do for the entire team." - Cincinnati Enquirer
