That exactly my point. Garbage time is not just in the closing minutes. It could be the entire forth quarter if the game is already out of hand. People have looked at the final score and said we dominated, it was never in doubt, yet it was a single score game approaching the forth quarter. The fact we've never gotten into garbage time (except for FSU) is an other indication we didn't dominate.
I told ppl they was crazy to think we wouldn’t miss them dudes. Pickney on a bad hip better than all the LBs we have right now
They felt comfortable enough with their leads to play reserves for a majority of the fourth quarter in the first three games. I don’t think you need to be up by 40 to give your backup players some game reps.
Most of the reserves that played are guys in the two deep that they are hoping are replacements for starters. I don't remember Rivers get much burn. I don't think Flagg played until Clemson. And TVD looked really good making that hand off at the end of FSU.
Unfortunately, for most FBS teams, you don’t get many chances to play guys outside of the two deep. Especially this season with very few OOC cupcake games. I mean it would be nice to be Clemson and beat Georgia Tech by 70 and get a chance to empty your bench but 99% of the teams In college football aren’t good enough to crush conference opponents by that much. Had they been able to keep the original schedule they had a game against FCS Wagner that could have gotten some of the guys at the end of the bench some playing time but that game went out the window with Covid
We certainly don’t dominate teams like we did when we were winning national championships but even then, it’s not like we were emptying the bench every week either. Look at the 2001 team. Only two quarterbacks attempted a pass the entire season. Derrick Crudup attempted 22 passes. Willis McGahee and Frank Gore got 67 and 62 total carries respectively. The second team WRs caught 19 and 25 passes. The only 3rd team receiver that played at all was Geathers who caught 9 passes. They were blowing guys out but it’s not like they were going past the two deep often, if at all.
I thought disco inferno was Blisset.
Rell Manure isn't it. We will lose probably 3 more games. Than 6-4 will give him room and he will say next year with spring, and summer workouts, and a real fall camp.. blah blah blah.. another song and dance. I'm not gonna get mad though. We all see it and it's too funny that he doesn't see the ship leaking.
Do you really think 6-4 will get him heat? I personally do not. Here’s all the excuses lined up:
