Now you can see the value in having mammoth sized O-Lineman who can run block. WE once again had zero running game. It makes clear why our incoming Freshman class is so so valuable. If we had a running game at all, Rattler would be a much better QB. If they know we are going to pass, which did, then it becomes one dimensional. On the flip, they run the ball 8 to 11 yards a clip in the second half. Our LB's and safety have to cheat up to help run support and their goof ball QB throws up ducks to open deep receivers. O line changes the game people.

We are talking about transfer players not ones who opt out for the NFL, we are talking about the traitors who are transferring out to another team. They Quit on the team, you can try to be cute and spin it but its a fact.
I’m sorry but the Team is not above my career. The NCAA set the dates for transferring. They are the ones that are forcing kids to leave before the bowl with their dates. I’m not going to do it myself or advise my kid to stay at school x and ride the pine, if he can go somewhere else and start and showcase his talents. One can get him in the NFL, the other doesn’t give him a chance .

Example Jalen hurts

Ride the pine? Are you kidding? You cant be this slow. These guys were STARTERS and the damn date doesnt have anything to do with it, they quit, period!

Mention was made of Marcus Lattimore and insurance no working like people think. Did Marcus Lattimore get hurt while playing in a bowl? I know he didn't versus Tennessee.

He got knocked out of the CFA bowl game vs FSU.

I remembered that. He was a freshman. That was an oral injury, correct? His career continued after that, correct? I'm talking about the injury that was effectively the career-ending injury. Not postseason, right?

We missed some opportunities in this game. But it was a good game by two teams trending in the upward direction.
Looking forward to seeing how we move forward as a program.

Yes these bowls are factored into the final rankings. I don’t get why some fans are so hell bent on lecturing others that bowls meaningless. I’d trade a basketball or baseball national champion for a football Gator Bowl win any day.

No they are preparing for their careers, not getting hurt, and doing what’s best for their LIFE. Nothing wrong with that. Precisely what I would advise my child to do.
I prefer what Dakereon's father taught him.
