I want to see us rotate more players in the game!

I also saw Ball passing to J. Smith and no other WR - what happened to Thomas, Logan, Bilbo, McGuire, Curry?

How about changing up the QB in certain situations? If Reggie were given limited offensive plays - one's that kept him in control for a freshmen, why not bring Bilbo (yes, Bilbo) in for a couple of plays like last season (love that 76 yd bomb against Wake). Why not try everything in your power to score some points.

Use everyone that brings something to the table. Give everyone a chance to contribute, what the heck is there to lose? WE are the underdogs - do something to make some positive things happen!
Suggs may be able to contribute as well in certain instances.

We played the receivers, many just didn't "play" when they got on the field. Would have been real nice to see Bilbo out there catching a pass or 2.

Based on some comments, it is obvious some here have never played football. You have starters for a reason. That reason is usually because he is the best guy you have at that postition. Switching players around as a gimick rarely works. You need your best players on the field if you want to win. Otherwise you create confusion and are playing with guys who don't belong out there and can't execute.

Football is about execution, which requires knowledge, timing, and natual ability. Two of those (knowledge and timing) require practice. Guess who gets the most practice? Usually the guy with the most natual ability.

Yes there are times and situations were a rotation is beneficial. Usually this is along the offensive and defensive lines. If you seriously follow the team then you know about our depth and susequent options there. Nada. As far as other positions go -- there was no reason not to continue playing the starters.

The offensive side wasn't over worked because they put the ball on the ground right before things could get good. Defensively in the secondary we saw some of the inexperience but they still managed to do a decent job of things. If we put their back-ups in things would probably been worse.

More guys will get experience through the year as needed. But throwing them out there when they are not ready just to "try something" is foolish.

this is the time to test the waters and get those creative juicies flowing.

<font size="2" face="Arial, Verdana, Sans-Serif">With all due respect to your opinion, this is not a crapshoot. Contrary to your perception, CCG does not have the perception that "all is lost, throw the season to the wind and see where it may land."
