This WR rotation is extremely puzzling.

For example game1 VJ barely played.

11 played very little yesterday


yesterday 9 didn’t play much if any until the second half.


did 9 play the first half? maybe suspended for a half?

V Jones barely played game one because he has been getting over a hamstring injury and they didn't want to push it too early.

The NCAA set up this officials mess by not having a national operation for the hiring, policy/procedures, training, assignment, and termination of same. Letting conferences and independents do their own things and interpret their own ways without recourse for cronyism and corruption takes the game down a bad path IMO. There's enough money in the game to centralize and standardize the officials and how they administer games, which will improve the quality and consistency.

I saw it do this type stuff in my career in the business world. The economy would explode with new products and innovation. However, there are rules (laws/regulations) to that game as well. Even the regulators would join in the fun and allow things to happen they shouldn't. They knew it would be a detriment to certain aspects of society and other industries by bending the regs/laws, but fell into the trap. Most of them wanted higher paying jobs in the industries they regulated. So if they ignored this or that and misinterpreted this or that reg a little - no harm, no foul, right?

We have laws on the books, like rules of a football game, that were ignored or misinterpreted to protect the cronyism. That led to corruption and eventually to bubbles that blew the overall economy up and we all suffered as citizens for the excesses of the few. The few that later found roles/employment elsewhere with their cronies to live another day and rinse/repeat what they do.

Same deal in CFB and other sports. They can fix it. They choose not to. The only way to change it is to expose it, call it out loudly, and handle it with how you spend your money. The later is what they understand the most. Your choice.

Great-- O is starting to gel and we are losing O linemen left and right... we'll be playing walk-ons by game 4 :rolleyes:

I asked yesterday, where the heck is Chris Akpo?? Third year guy wasn't even in at the end of the game when all the backups and walk-ons ? Beckwith same thing... Attitude maybe ?

Getting an MRI so potentially not good news

Looked like an ankle to me. Could just be making sure he didn’t tear anything in there. He was moving to well for it to be a knee. Sucks that he did it on a tackle….

Hopefully nothing major, while him being out sucks. Getting his brother back at Center is very crucial. Our inside run game has been bad without Cooper.
