correct, he wasnt announced to have an injury or being out til hours later in afternoon. i was taking a different angle. Marshall's coach was just a complete moron last night, he lost that game for his players, and not playing ALI in 2nd half was a BONEHEAD move. your best running back and offensive threat sidelined to "rest" him (Ali himself looked stunned and upset as did teammates). Then i predicted the bliztes of Pennington in this very thread, next few plays they dialed it up and no blocking to help, he gets hurt the next play. That moron coach doesnt call a TO to give him a chance to get back in and backup throws a PICK NEXT PLAY.
Unfortunately we werent privvy to his decision making before hand, but had i known the BS he'd pull id never have bet on marshall and prob not even the game. Marshall should consider a change at HC especially after watching his blunders last night and some this year.
Oh well, on to better bowls coming up. Screw these garbage teams with cracker jack coaches.
