Mueller listed ahead of Sievers

Patrick backing up Murtha

Matt Slauson starting at RT for Seppo

Nate Swift starting at (X)

Lucky and Glenn bumped up to 2 and 3 at RB, BJax dropped to #4

Harrison Beck officially listed as #2

Zack Bowman starting over Tierre Green at the Weak CB spot, Green is listed as the back up on either side

Lucky finally listed ahead of BJax on Kickoff Returns

It seems as if the staff has just now updated the depth chart to reflect some of the changes that we have begun to see on the field.

 
looks to be the 1st time they have updated it all year...its about time, everyone knew that Swift was starting now and that brandon jackson is not the #2 rb...just to name a couple.

 
Slausson and Murtha are both starting because both Seppo and C. Thomas are both injured. Spoo has a broken finger or bone or something. C.Thomas has a shoulder bone problem.

I am not suprised by the Sievers downgrade and Mueller upgrade. Sievers has had major problems blocking as a TE this year, and i don't expect Phillips to last much longer on the 2 deep come next season.

Swift deserves the start over Frantz. Frantz has faded away for whatever reason since his hot start in the first couple of games.

It will be nice to have FluEellen back for this game, even though he's not listed. Don't expect to see Beck is Taylor gets injured. I am not giving my opinion, on that, i am telling you not to expect to see him the rest of the year.

Zac Bowman, even though he has started the last couple of games should expect to see the majority of playing time the rest of the year. Shanle is a guy that deserves to be number 2. This is a guy i am EXTREMLY excited about for next year with Leon Jackson

I never realized shanle was a junior, thought he was a senior...he certainly has some speed doesn't he?

 
Indeed he does. He had a field day stat wise against Kansas St last year. He had a fumble reccovery at the KSU 20 yard line, a couple of tackles for a loss, a sack, 7 tackles, and a QB hurry. If Bullocks doesn't step up this game, look for Shanle to come in and Bullocks to get benched.

 
From what I have heard, Shanle needs to have last second instruction on his assignment all the way up until he steps between the lines for a play. I dunno if this is normal, but the guy has shown something when he has gotten an opportunity and maybe that is a reason he is not out there all the time. I recall a play against Wake Forest where he covered about 30 yards across the field to go knock away a pass to an open receiver near the 5 yard line. It was an incredible play. Bullocks mental mistakes are growing more frequent and if he is going to lay a mental egg then the Captain can sit on the sidelines and think about it. That is what, 5 or 6 huge plays that he has let get past him for TD's or huge gains. Unacceptable missing tackles like that, purely brain farts. He's better than that and needs to show it ON EVERY PLAY!

 
What ever happened to Brock Pasteur?? The JC left tackle came in the '05 class and I would think would be in the mix at one of the tackle positions. Is he hurt? JC All-American.....

Is he hurt or is he yet another juco bust?

:yeah Couldn't of said it better. Bullocks is not showing his ability. He either plays like he is capable of or go serve some runzas and dogs and think about what it is to play like a captain.

 
So whats deal with thomas and seppo? When did they get hurt and what are injuries? Both were kept pretty quiet. Seems weird that callahan doesn't know about seppos injury.

 
I know Bullocks has missed some huge tackles, but what about Bowman's 8 second ride he took on AP from the 10 all the way into the endzone against OU? He spurred and rode AP like he was on a bucking bull. Who in the hell is telling these DB's to grab them high and jump on their back? This kind of play is inexcusable. Even Jr. High kids should know better than that!

Yea, in the post game press conference after OU, Bowman said he took the totally wrong angle on him. He said he didn't realize how powerful he was and tried to take him down like he would a WR. Tisk Tisk.
