    And this is why State looked like crap in the Bowl. Not enough depth to be competitive. And now with NIL and free transfer, schools like State will never be able to redshirt most of an incoming class because of the ?need immediate PT issue?. Remember when we had Defense 1 and Defense 1A? Alabama and UGA can plug and play year after year. That 1 season, State had no drop off when the 1A group came in. Not any more.

    We most certainly did have a drop off. 1A had some players that were better than 1, but 1 was better and the stats clearly showed that. It was a terrible strategy that didn't put all our best players on the field.

    This and it cost us too. The last long drive when bama put the game away was with 1B, couple of the td drives against om were against 1B.

    Had absolutely nothing to do with depth in our bowl this year. And yes, there was a huge drop off in 1B from 1A. Collins was an idiot with that rotation crap.
