It would be a gigantic slap in the face to the senior to not play on senior night, assuming we're destroying NMST as we should.

How much will TM play this weekend? He is a senior and it is the last game in LES, do the coaches increase his playing

Zach needs all the reps for Utah/bowl game/next year. Tanner had plenty of chances.

mulletino

11/12/18 11:31am

More reps against NMSU will not make Zach better for the Utah game

WJCougar

11/12/18 11:34am

MmmmmK

mulletino

11/12/18 11:34am

You really think reps against one of the worst teams in college football....

WJCougar

11/12/18 11:36am

Good point. Might as well not even hold practice for the rest of the season since it's such a waste of time.

Byron McNertney

11/12/18 11:39am

Really? That is all NMSU is, is practice....but it won't prepare him for....

WJCougar

11/12/18 11:40am

Do you realize that there are 10 other BYU players on the field with Wilson who all need to work together as a unit?

Byron McNertney

11/12/18 11:41am

Do you realize NMSU is not that good?

WJCougar

11/12/18 1:06pm

Apparently Alabama and every other powerhouse

LCcoug

11/12/18 5:22pm

True....Bama schedules cupcakes because if they didnt....

WJCougar

11/12/18 7:28pm

Said no one. Ever.

TPcoug

11/12/18 11:36am

How do reps against NMSU make Zach better at this point?

WJCougar

11/12/18 11:38am

Repetition. Ability to try different things that will give him more confidence.

TPcoug

11/12/18 11:40am

Well, they might as well just not practice with a scout team defense either then I suppose. Makes sense.

mulletino

11/12/18 11:42am

True. He looked like a season vet that last play versus BSU. Clearly additional

byubyu

11/12/18 11:42am

He should give up reps during weekly practices too. No need.

Belboz

11/12/18 11:56am

Every single game Rep, regardless of opponent, is valuable.

Cougar TD

11/12/18 12:05pm

Reps will help but not worth the risk if the game is put away

palangi

11/12/18 12:19pm

It doesn’t sound like you understand how reps make you better.

Denesheo

11/12/18 4:22pm

He has 4 games under his belt. He's fine. Our backups need more time!

mulletino

11/12/18 4:42pm

I don’t know if this is a joke or not.

Denesheo

11/12/18 7:33pm

A couple drives in the 4th quarter given to Tanner isn't going to stunt Zach's

gmj81

11/12/18 12:09pm

Not if they get hurt

palangi

11/12/18 12:20pm

LOL then why ever have spring ball? Any live rep against any warm body is a good

LaVellIfIKnow

11/12/18 12:20pm

Or hold practice against the lowly scout team.

Sodo Mojo

11/12/18 2:09pm

This is a shockingly bad take.

Roko's Basilisk

11/12/18 3:16pm

Shocking would be believing that playing NMSU makes you better.

WJCougar

11/12/18 3:34pm

Practice makes perfect.

TPcoug

11/12/18 3:49pm

It's rare to see such a profound misunderstanding of how sports performance

Roko's Basilisk

11/12/18 3:52pm

Good for you in thinking a game against one of the worst teams....

WJCougar

11/12/18 7:27pm

If we're destroying New Mexico State, I bet he gets at least one series

MasterLump

11/12/18 11:32am

They should give Tanner a clear ceremonial series in the second half.

mudpupper

11/12/18 11:32am

Give him the first drive of the 2nd half.

WJCougar

11/12/18 11:34am

I’d let him play the first series and as much of the fourth quarter as possible.

ataylor

11/12/18 11:35am

Probably zero.

kccougar

11/12/18 11:35am

Kalani said before Hawai’i that tanner had played his last game

cougarmanguy

11/12/18 11:36am

That might change for senior night and maybe a blowout.

mudpupper

11/12/18 11:37am

Tanner played way more snaps this year than his play warranted. That said,

Left Shark Coug

11/12/18 11:53am

I hope they put Jaren in to run the ball every time again. Ideal scenario

BGRTHNUMEGO

11/12/18 11:37am

He's only played in 2 games right?

cougaman

11/12/18 11:38am

yes

Dangerous

11/12/18 11:49am

if i was coach I'd give him a play or two at most. thank him at a team banquet

Return of the Yeti

11/12/18 11:37am

There's a reason Hall has played the last 2 games, it leaves Saturday for Tanner

CaliWG

11/12/18 11:39am

Whatever the tradition of starting seniors is; no more or less. ZW is the guy

unctoothman

11/12/18 12:14pm

I'd let him start the game. Tanner has given his all to the program.

stev

11/12/18 12:36pm

You should also be in favor of other seniors starting in place of underclassmen

LaVellIfIKnow

11/12/18 12:39pm

I'd be all for that personally.

cougaman

11/12/18 12:58pm

I absolutely am. We're gonna win the game anyway. Let your seniors play.

yes. give them to guys that haven't played much or ever.

Return of the Yeti

11/12/18 2:59pm

TM is not the cleanup time QB, that’s Hall’s job. TM is the “Zach’s injured” QB.

byujdmba

11/12/18 2:56pm

I hope he gets some time, wear off some rust before the NFL.

Gerald-DeGroot

11/12/18 4:39pm

I hope he gets a solid quarter of play, looks amazing, and reinstates our

I hope he starts and rocks it.
