He was limited with an injury in the other 2. He’s a very good RB, but needs to focus on ball security.

First turnover the defense got in like 4 games, turned it back over the very next play.

Just terrible.

To be honest Witter looked better all night.

That play last night was just a great play by the defender. Most RBs would fumble that IMO

What pisses me the frick off is that the coaches REFUSE to play him once he fumbles once and then we're stuck with Witter till the end of the game. No other team in CFB will sit their best player for the entire second half of a tight game because he had one frickup. I understand that turnovers can't be tolerated but I can't help but think what would've happened if Crockett stayed in. Yes, Witter had a hell of a game. But Crockett could turn those 20 yard runs into 30 yard gains or even TD's

It was a good ply by the defense, Crockett was also holding the ball pretty low and loose.
Witter also had a very good game. I was hoping to see a couple drives with Rountree.

I was waiting for somebody to complain about Witter playing. Crockett had a VERY costly turnover and Witter was having the game of his life. Absolutely the correct decision.

Crockett is a great back, but he has to quit coughing the ball up.

Then explain Barry's hypocritical shite accountability coaching.

Moore, he of the bitch attitude "Ima drop 50% of what's thrown to me, let DBs strip a few more, and get into pansy arse fights with DBs when they play physical with me" never, EVER getting benched his incompetent, drive killing plays damn near every week.

He's like the coach's son who's shite at FB but keeps playing .

But no. Crockett will get benched for fumbles.

Lock has a 59% completion percentage throwing to Moore and his highest QB rating.

LINK

David Morrison put that chart together.

Take out his garbage OOC games and stack up his conference games against the other WRs and get back to me.

Moore looks all pro against pond scum but usually disappears in conference and gets into slap contests with DBs.

It sounds like you hate Moore because of the protests. He’s been the best Mizzou receiver from 2015.

Oh piss the frick off already and stop being an apologist.

I'm probably the most liberal "libtard" on this board. I don't give a rat's arse about his decision to protest. Missouri needed an awakening.

But I'm going to sugarcoat his terrible play with sunshine and roses and being the "best" on an average WR unit.

I'll run the #s when I wanna waste the time, but odds are his conference #s are mediocre.

You don’t have to run the numbers, they are in the link I posted earlier.

Dude, if Crockett can't hold onto the ball then how do you play him? Again, it's not like Witter was playing poorly in his place. He was hashing UK.

Sit him on the bench and let him know how important ball security is. He wasn't kicked off the team. He'll get his chances moving forward.

I absolutely agree with that decision

He’s averaged ~50 yds and about 4 receptions per game in conference play.

Meanwhile, here are the stats for our other WRs in conference play this year.

HALL: 58% catch rate, 195yards, TD
JJ: 59% catch rate, 182 yards, TD

Moore: 60% catch rate, 150 yards, 2 TDs.

FAAAABUUULOUS play by our #1 WR. Just awesome.

I bet if Hall hadn't gotten dinged up in that Auburn game and Lock looked his way more, his production would be better than Moore. Far better. Moore is a mediocre WR that eats up talentless DBs.

BIG problem; not only does it hurt us but his stock is dropping fast.
