I’d bet RoJo plays and gives it everything he has

I'm going with he sits out.  Too much risk, too little reward.

I think RoJo plays. He can use another game as the marquee back in our backfield to strengthen his resume. Also he is playing in the Senior bowl so clearly not scared to play. 

 

[Rotty22]

It said don’t expect him to play in the bowl game. I don’t know if Roschon is going to play or not. It may be Brooks and Blue doing most of the running. 

I hope he doesn't play if he's gone.  The bowl game means nothing compared to the money he's going to make as a round 1 RB.  I hope we get to see Murphy play some.

RoJo has been told he needs more current tape. This is why he's jumped on the all star bowl and I think he'll play in Texas' bowl game.

We don't match up well against this team, but with all the portal stuff, people going pro, and just plain motivation who knows. Bowl games lost their luster a long time ago. Hope we do well and get out of there without injuries.

We are the faster and more talented team. They have strong QB play and good supporting cast. I'm hoping our pass rush can keep him off balance throughout the game.

There are plays to be made on that defense though.

I do like our offense vs their defense. I think their offense can put up a lot of points on our defense if we don't get to the qb. Should be a shoot out.

With him, if his arm doesn't kill you his legs certainly can. We'll need to spy him.

Yep. Plus he has a ton of experience. He's been in College longer than some Doctors.

I think when they go to a 12 team playoff you are going to see more teams that didn’t make the top 12 not play. The sponsorship money is not going to be there to pay these bowls that are not in the playoffs and any player that is going in the draft is just not going to play. Plus the ones that are going in the portal that’s team didn’t make the top 12 is going to be out. Remember A&M opted out of that bowl game? I just think moving forward things are going to be a lot different and more teams will opt out.

Aggy opted out then didn't make a bowl. Makes me think many of their players don't think they would make a bowl again next year.

There's too many bowl games anyway. I'm ok not watching Middle Tenn St. play Northern Arizona in the ijustgothit.com or the Mcribisback bowl.

Oh me too but alot of those teams got funding that was really needed. It has become too many though

Yeah, if you need to know the closest Taco Bell to campus, he's your guy. lol

I sure will. We're at the cusp of the 7-month desert known as off season. I'm going to absorb as much as I can. lol

I agree, bowl games have become meaningless unless you are in the CFP rotation

They have the #2 P5 offense. That's gonna be a tough out for the defense.
