Has anybody else noticed that DeShaunte Jones is curiously absent from the offensive game plan? Him and Matt Eaton get rotated out every other series for Tarique Milton and Landen Akers. Milton has certainly earned his playing time. I would argue Jones Is our 3rd best playmaker on offense...seems like he should at least be on the field more than he is currently.

Okay, now he's back in. They made it sound like he was injured. Grrrrrrr.....

Coaching staff probably trying to limit his workload especially being up 14 points, and after he had over 30 carries last week.

You were saying

 

[Gunnerclone]

Jones just had a catch?

He has a catch in 31 straight games....

CMC has answered your post.

Defense actually getting some rest on this offensive possession.

Of course he catches 2 passes right after I post this

 

[Gunnerclone]

and Jones just got a first down? Is it time for me to be concerned yet?

 

[CentexCyclone]

OK Brock, here's the deal....we like you. We really like you. The offense hums when you are out there and your ability to run opens up lots of room for DM. Your passes are crisp and your decision making outstanding for a true freshmen.

But for the love of God and all that is good and noble and pure in this world...will you please SLIDE BEFORE TAKING A HIT!?!?!

 

[ISUCY23]

Knipfel ****** up there

 

[pulse]

Yay a 40+ yd field goal!!!!

 

[cyclones500]

Assalley!

 

[bawbie]

Assalley made a 47 yarder? just how strong is that wind blowing?!??!?

 

[Althetuna]

IT WASN'T BLOCKED!

 

[jdoggivjc]

Assalley has a new career long FG. Cool. But I want more TDs.

 

[ISUCY23]

Wow. No idea he had that in him. Great kick Connor!

 

[CloneLawman]

Nice!

 

[atlantacyclone]

Of course we hit that one!

 

[Gunnerclone]

Hopefully that gives assalley some confidass.
