EXACTLY Why Shoelace Stayed In

Bob, putting in Devin with 9 minutes go to, and having him hand it off a handful of times against Eastern is not real game experience. Devin will get real game experience if Denard goes down, and he's thrown in against Nebraska, or any good Big 10 team.


That is a silly statement... Hand offs in practice and hand offs in a real game are totally different. Devin could use game experience any chance he can get some...

And that's a different thing than worrying players will get hurt and taking them out or completely and totally changing your play calling because of the score.

I wish the offense was to the point where Denard could sit and Devin could get some snaps, but if they're not there yet, then so be it. I'm just glad we're 2nd guessing our coaches for this rather than 2nd guessing Fickle's non-use of his time outs.

I was going to smite Slick after he smites me this hour, but I'll use my power for good. Because yours was a good post.
