Scheelhaase continues to operate ahead of the competition

As for Scheelhaase, he is stepping up to the challenge.

During Saturday's scrimmage, he had some very nice throws, showed make-'em-miss ability when running and seemed to understand what went wrong when he threw the day's only interception, that coming late during a two-minute drill.

"It felt good," Scheelhaase said. "I managed the game well. Coach Petrino and coach Brohm were both excited and said I managed the game well and made big strides today..."
