DT used his redshirt during his sophomore year. He was a redshirt sophomore during his first year as the starting QB. What DT would have gained is an extra year of playing time (experience) if Dodge wouldn't have used a year of eligibility for the end of one game.

How much that experience would have mattered this year we'll never know. Enough to be 8-1 this year?

If I remember the timeline correctly:

You have 5 to play 4.

2009: played one game, 1st year

2010: Played three games, injured, medical hardship year

2011: 11 game starter, 2nd year

2012: 12 game starter, 3rd year

2013: This year, 4th year

If he had not played in 2009, then he could have claimed 2010 as a medical hardship year, and then had this be his 3rd year of eligibility.

I hope our team isn't looking past these guys. They have a good coaching staff and teams that have nothing to lose can be dangerous. It sounds like they are willing to try anything for a win.

Yep...I tend to be a "Hand Wringer" too. 'Looking past' has created a fair amount of upsets.

UTEP is one of the worst 5 teams in a FBS conference. Only Southern Miss, NMSU, Idaho, and Hawaii could compete with them for that spot. We killed Idaho and USM, so I expect us to murder UTEP at home.

The last game is the most dangerous, at Tulsa, to me just because they will finish off their last game of a very disappointing season against us. They will want their seniors to go out with a win, since it will be their bowl game, basically. And their coaches know that thye recruit against us, so they will pull out all the stops in that game. Add in our conservative nature on the road against decent teams and you have the recipe for a tough game. Plus, historically, Tulsa owns us like no other school in the country that is not an AQ power. Some of the aboslute biggest butt-kickings we have absorbed have been at the hands of Tulsa over the last 40 years.
