I am all for coach kiffin and I have faith that he knows what he is doing and obviously he's the one making the big bucks and knows far more than I do. I would never dispute that but I have at times questioned the extremely physical practices so much. i know in the summer with 2 adays and those practices months before the season you have to be physical so you can see who is for real and who is not but they were still going at it full speed balls to the wall right up to game week and i think most teams enter the season the most healthy they will ever be besides the bowl game and i feel like we started the season beat up like mid season form. i've never seen so many guys hurt "before" the first game and i think it cost us early. they started clicking when they finally got most of the guys back that were hurt in the preseason. Its just my opinion but it sounded like they were doing it again for the bowl. I know you have to practice full speed to play full speed but I was really hoping to play VT with a full deck and try to make a statement with a big win over a ranked team. we can't do that if we're beating the hell out of each other a little over a week from game day. but like I said he knows more than I thats why this is a message board. fans can give their opinion no matter how wrong or right they may be.

You make a valid point but the real problem is not the physical practice, it's a lack of depth. Lane is trying to instill a culture and work ethic that has been severly missing. If he waits until he has the depth then it will be too late. Right now he is taking a calculated risk that the injuries will not be too great.
