injured players playing in the bowl

[kcsu]

My two cents is that if you are a senior or a player who is not coming back and you can play fantastic. All other injured players should be held out until they are 100% ready to go. This bowl game is about getting young guys time via the extra practice period, rewarding the seniors, and recruiting. No sense in taking a chance on anyone who isnt 100%

On the flip side they have 3 months to recover... Play whoever is ready and can help the team win, just like every other game played in competitive sports. What is different here?

They are playing for a winning season

Not only a winning season but a winning career.

The fifth year seniors went 25-25 under Doug Marrone. They are now 31-31 for their careers.

Given where the program was when they arrived, a .500 record is a remarkable accomplishment. Finishing with an overall winning record would be a heck of a way to go out.
