I would not have brought in a back-up in that game. We were in danger

of making it a game after UCF scored a TD and 2 pt conversion. We were up only 16 and had 3rd and long pretty deep in our own territory, with plenty of time on the clock. Retzlaff made a great play to get the first down. Having a back-up in there would not have been ideal.

Love what ARod is doing, but why is he not playing the backup qb?

Eh... UCF was still getting after it and refused to waive the white flag. The only thing i cared about was designed QB

He never has done this. It's a bad decision on his part.

That's an error for Arod, not a pro.

Conover is your evidence? Dude never made it anywhere. Still in the minivan

We didn't develop one of the highest recruits, so yeah. Who knows where he'd be.

Bohannon would be great in a Taysom-like role. QB3 must not be ready.

Ok, so the qb competition being too close to call a week before the season

SV72 Sale

We don't really know how close the QB competition was. Coaches make statements

Exactly, we don't know, but why not find out? I mean, there's no way a guy

Oh right, to not discourage the poor backup, gotcha. Guess ARod didn't care

Did Bohannan see meaningful snaps against SIU. No and we heard reports of Jake

Very well could be true. But I'll take ARod's word for it because

1) we haven't been up far enough early enough in the game to start doing that, with maybe 1 exception.

Re: 1) what would you consider the point in the game and score differential

I'll probably get slammed for opining this way, but it seems the emphasis is on getting more backups on defense to get

I'd bet anything that if Jake got hurt while we were up 3 TDs late in the game

Rightfully so, too.

I don’t think that’s fair. Outside of QB there has been a lot of young guys getting reps on offense.

we really haven't had any wins that were totally out of reach

If we'd stayed up 34-10 with 5 minutes lef Q4, you still think it's worth risk of injury to Retzlaff? I mean, AROD wasn'

Up that much with the time you’re saying, he should not be in the game

Backup qb can get some reps in mop up time against the utes

Unlikely Ute D allows enough points to be up 3 scores
