you wonder if the 2 weeks off and the new 4 game rule would allow them to use any of the LBs who they are RS in a small role the next few games. Limit what they do, goal line or shortyage stuff?
Not that I am happy about it but I agree!I have a hard time believing we see changes at LB. If they thought any of the freshman could contribute, I think we would've seen them get worked in similar to Jarveon Howard. If they thought the upperclassman second string guys could help, we would already be seeing more of them. Going forward, I think we're playing the same hand we've played all year.
Those are facts. We just have to get better or do something schematically to help them out.We haven't rotated linebackers in two and a half seasons. I don't see it starting in game 7 of year 3. They like who they like win or lose

Nah. They're the definition of dealing with the devil.OFF TOPIC, but:
I'm not sure if its been brought up on the board... through 6 games, Alabama's punter is still eligible to redshirt for the season.
Maybe the craziest stat I've heard, that team is the definition of perfection.
True. But how’d that work out the last 2 Novembers? And in the last 2 4th quarters we’re seeing the signs that it will repeat.
What’s that definition of insanity again?
I think you will see some changes this weekPersonnel adjustments are the biggest question I have heading into the bye. Will there be any? Do they work in Cullen or Lakiem or Wallace with significant practice reps and then game snaps? What's Butler's situation, and does that mean any other WRs get more run with 1s & 2s? Possible Dunjury (see what I did there), will that mean more snaps for DeVito?
As for the true freshmen who haven't played yet, I don't think you see any of them in the next two Dome games, barring emergency. But after that, all bets are off. It becomes free audition time, with the exception of (Horan, 1 game played) and Vettorello (2 games played).
It will make November more interesting.

By the way it was nice to meet you the other day after the game. Sorry I had to run off the 4 year old was having a rough day lol.
Seven games in with no linebacker rotations means that there is a very good chance that the wear down factor of 2016, 2017 will occur again this year and even worse, you have now set yourself up to have a woefully inexperienced group again next year. I totally get that I am not at practice or behind the scenes or privy to anything thats going on. My only head scratch in all of this is the vast majority of the reserves are their recruits. Is it possible they missed on all of them?True. But how’d that work out the last 2 Novembers? And in the last 2 4th quarters we’re seeing the signs that it will repeat.

Are linebacker rotations really that common? I doubt it.
Which would be fine for us if the whistle at the end of the 3rd quarter was also the final one.
