I see that you didn't actually follow their season. That's OK, but it kinda kills your point. Cincy got hit with injuries just like we did and wound up underachieving at the end of the season as a result.

He was starting RB halfway thru his Freshman season... Kid is GOOD. He's REALLY good. He's additionally REALLY stupid. If he is eligible/healthy, he is the starter. Hands down, no questions. Not sure who pissed in your corn flakes, but do some research past last years depth chart please.

Continue to show your ignorance. When he is healthy he is the best back on the team, no doubt.

Let's not delude ourselves. With months to go until kickoff, we are likely to have a similar pile dumped in our living room at some inconvenient point. Unfortunately, it's just part of the deal at every program these days.

Well, he will definitely be suspended due to the multiple violations. Green isn't a "very good" running back, he is ok. I believe State gets one or two RB's back from injury next year.

We are going to beat NC State in Atlanta. I respect them as an opponent, but we have too much talent coming back this year and their front seven is depleted as well as the group of WR/TE. Should be a close game, but Tennessee is going to win.

A necessary corollary that you forgot to mention: UT's schedule got harder after they played Cincy, arguably Cincy's schedule got easier...

I dare any school with the depth chart that UT had to play LSU, BAMA, Arky et al, and not end the season down, beaten, and morally defeated.
