why didn't the freshmen play?

[kkep48]

Where were all those freshmen who were supposed to contribute? Gerald Jones, I don't ever remember him being on the field... Dennis Rogan obviously isn't the backup punt returner, Austin Rogers is. Denarius Moore wasn't a factor. Never saw Eric Berry on offense like I heard we might. Was this just Fulmer getting our hopes up again, like always?

Moore got some decent playtime...and we certainly needed him to be a bigger factor. I was surprised to see Rogers back there taking the punt instead of Rogan too. I didn't expect to see Berry at offense in this game. He needs to take care of defense at first...if he has another good game against SMU, then we might see him in option come Florida. As for Jones, I imagine he is still nursing his hamstring. The only freshman factors I was disappointed in was 1) not seeing more of Moore and 2) not taking a deep shot or two to O'Neal.
