Jon Medeiros is expected to get his first start at slotback against Boise State on Saturday. The spot opened up when Kealoha Pilares moved to outside receiver this week. Pilares looks to have the inside track at starting while Joe Avery is getting a look on both sides of the formation.

Medeiros turned in one of the big plays of today’s practice, snagging a 22-yard touchdown pass from Shane Austin to cap a 2-minute drill.

>> Austin, backup to Bryant Moniz,  looked sharp in completing five of 8 throws, including the touchdown.

>> Liko Satele, who began the season at right defensive end, will rotate with Elliott Purcell on the left side of the line.
>> Right guard Raphael Ieru returned to the lineup this morning after resting an injury the last two days.
