Who wants L Jackson to play and who wants him to sit?

On the other hand, we are playing without a starting QB, so I guess its even. I dont know.

I want to win--a 9th win looks a lot better than 8. If we had Mullen and Grantham, I wouldn't mind seeing what we could do against them full strength with us having Key instead of Fitz. Now that we have a skeleton coaching crew, I would rather him not play.

Edit to add: More important that just going from 8 to 9 wins is finishing ranked. Likely in the Top 20 if we win. If he plays, then we need to beat him.

Has Louisville played a defense since they played LSU in the bowl last year? LSU shut their asses down and I fully expect our guys to do the same. Should be a nice showcase for KT. His touch on passes is beyond his age. Once his decision making speeds up with more playing time, I fully expect him to challenge all of our QB records. Dude has all the skills and a much higher ceiling potential than Dak or Fitz.

This is one thing that is in our favor. Our strengths match up with UofL. We have to replace Fitz with Key but their defense is shit anyway. Once Key settled in then we ran all over UM. It will come down to if our defense can stop Jackson and I like our chances if English can call a good game. At least he has been a DC before unlike the Orange Bowl. I also like the fact that Elliot is calling the offense. He knows Mullen's offense so it isn't like throwing someone in that doesn't know the calls.

Clempson’s defense is OK.

Sit. Not interested in seeing him have a field day with our secondary.

Yeah if Jackson does play, it's not going to be pretty against our secondary. Yes, our guys will be motivated to play against him, but after a few gut punches I fear they will be able to run away
