Did Omar really have two carries?  Maybe those were really Beau? Where's the band?! WHERE"S THE BAND?!

I think there have been errors like this the last few weeks... ...which begs the question... Why do we have two starters with the same number? I figured duplicate numbers are usually assigned to practice squad players or special teams players. Is this more common than I apparently realize?

I think it is more common than you'd think.  I think they assume when you see a rush by #4, you'd realize it was the QB and not the CB.

Great acceleration and quickness. Obviously we have Dallas Brown, Hammonds and Fulcher in the wings. If the staff has no confidence why aren't they moving him down the depth chart? I think you will be proven wrong over the rest of the season.

But that's exactly what the coaching staff has done since NMSU.  In that game, he split time with Harden, with Boykin getting mop-up duty.  At Rutgers, Boykin got the start and Beau got zero carries.  Couldn't be more clear.

Didn't you trash Travis Carrie (another guy who was just a Sophomore) last year too? Hows that workin' out?

Nice try, though.
