If our "starters" had sat out the first three games. Would we still be undefeated?

The 2nd and 3rd string players have played great. How would the points for and against be different?

2nd string needed for Oregon, 4th Samford, 3rd SCU. But dont get too arrogant, we can screw this up.

We are weak at cornerback.
Big drop off at OLB.
We are struggling now at X receiver with AD out.

The defense would have a significant dropoff. Offense would be slightly worse.

Play a game without 1st stringers?

It is a hypothetical.

If I'm wrong, tell me where I'm wrong.

Don’t think we are struggling at X. I mean AD is better than what we have obviously but I wouldn’t say we are struggling

I think our second string defensive line, offensive line, TE and quarterback would compensate for a little bit of lack of depth at some of the other positions. But our first string secondary did a great job against Oregon and South Carolina and basically dictated those games from the defensive side. That production would go way down without the starters

This is about 2nd and 3rd string.

We are not "strong" with Meeks at X.
He would not start anywhere else in conference.
He is good with upside. But he wouldn't win us games.

Didn’t Dillon Bell start there last Saturday?

They played so many it was hard to keep straight. I saw Kearis, McConkey, and Bell on the first series but also two TEs, Bowers and Washington. Shortly into the game there was Rosemy-Jacksaint, Meeks, Blaylock, and Morrisette too.

Pregame depth chart had MRJS or AD Mitchell at X.

Bell was listed as 2nd at Z (behind McConkey).

It looked to me like we had MRJS on running plays and sweeps and Meeks on passing situations (but I didn't chart it).

Hell, yeah. And in the SECCG we will be so far ahead of Bama that the first string will sit on the bench for much of the second half.
