Agree. Also, need to rotate Curry and Caden to keep bringing it so everyone is fresh. And TBH, it should be split 50/50.

I'm happy they rotated a lot against Purdue, and are rotating more overall, but I haven't seen anything that makes me want to play the backups 50% of the time in every game. I don't understand why fans want rotating to this extent. Curry, Jackson, and to a lesser extent the backup DTs have been playing well, but none are so amazing that they need to split time with the starters. The only time that was realistic was in '17 when they had 5 DEs that included 2 top 2 picks, and a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th rounder. I wish that was the case this year or every year, but it's not.

50% is too much but I think 20% of the time would be fine. They just need to work on how to blend these kids in. They tend to go “all or nothing” which bothers me whereas they should be subbing one starter for a back up.

Example: maybe don’t put in your back up defensive line. Instead put in Jackson for a few snaps while 44, 58 and 91 remain.

Seems like he's starting to come on again and that would be perfect timing for him to catch fire going into these last few conference games and the playoffs. He and 33 can certainly wreck shop when they are on so I'm all for it

One of the two has to go to another level I think for us to win it all. If that happens I really think the other will step up too.

JT and Jack have everything to be dominant
