Octavien Where Are You?

Spartness

Starter
One tackle? Is it because the coaches are not communicated the true fact that he is recovering slowly from his operation, his leg hasn't fully healed, or is he a flash in the pan? Did he looks so good in his brief appearance against Main because it was Main? Could he not be nearly as good as what we thought? :dunno

 
I never said he was all that special. I just said that Rudd might be outplaying Steve O in practice and that is why he is getting more reps in the game.

 
another guy in cally's dog house......temporarily deprived of his blackshirt?.....suspended as he sez?.......academics or?? with cally who knows??

mc keon was the only one who showed up on the d side of the ball......no pass rush, just pitiful, but a lot had to do with the conservative Coz defense..the whole game and scheme was un Nebraska-like....oh well, new week coming up..

I think there is a lot to be said for not giving up any BIG plays, besides maybe the time they got a first after 3rd and 20 or whatever, that sucked, it was like I could just see it coming too. Oh well, I think the D played fine against a great USC offense.

 
I still think this guy is being slowed by his earlier appendix problem. He still may not be 100% and that has to be hampering his player time.

 
Octavien sure has started the season slow. Total defensive tackles so far this season:

McKeon 17

Bradley 17

Grixby 14

Green 14

Ruud 14

Carriker 11

Octavien 9

Jones 9

Shanle 8

Steinkuhler 7

That is obviously the case. I think brandenberg is better then both of them.

 
I thought he looked a little heavy. I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt since he did have the surgery and all, which if not 100% healthy can make anyone hesitant. He'll be alright.

I think Brandenburgh is awesome too. Hopefully next year they will work him into a starting spot somehow. It seems he is always playing 110%. :restore

He should be the front runner to replace Stu Bradley. He puts on a lot of hits.
