My guess is Vedral plays. If not, then it'll be Synder. I think we could see Wimsatt, but only for a play here and there.

Some fans got sour on Snyder after the Illinois game, but his running ability and no INTs in more tries likely tips the balance to him over Simon? Small sample size.

"Snyder is 18-for-28 for 130 yards and a touchdown with 42 yards rushing. Simon, in four games, is 9-of-13 for 59 yards and an interception with -5 yards on the ground"

Do you think AC could petition for a medical redshirt?

I think it should be a mix of Snyder and Wimsatt vs a 2-7 Indiana playing out the schedule.

I saw him say that in the post-game PC. I had left the game by then, so didn't see what happened. But if GS said that, then I suspect it's not coach-speak and he truly felt he should've pulled Vedral earlier to protect him.

Even in the first quarter, when we were having some small success moving the ball, it looked to me like our OL was going to get beat up in that game. On the second of the two INTs, Vedral got hammered just as he was releasing the ball, clearly affecting the throw 'cause Vedral had to throw without stepping into it, and he doesn't have that sort of arm strength. Given that hit, and given how much he was running for his life on most pass plays, I think it makes sense to have pulled him earlier, especially since he was so banged up from the prior week.

The good news is we can't possibly score any less

Yes, and that’s why people clamoring wimstatt to start and /or play a significant amount are crazy . It’s one of thing if a placeholder like vedral here annihilated . You don’t want your senior hs quarterback that is your future getting annihilated too. Schiano doesn’t want that either

Snyder was pretty bad during the Illinois game. Because, while he didn't get intercepted, he DID throw two balls that really should've been picked off. The first was weakly thrown and gave the DB the better angle of approach, and it bounced off that DB's chest, basically. Should've been a pick six. The second one was also weakly thrown and behind the receiver, but the DB (or LB, I don't recall now) didn't react well to the pass. Which was lucky for us or it would've been picked off easily.

And what makes it really bad is that he wasn't under intense pressure on those two throws. Just really poor execution. Still, I think it'll be Synder if Vedral can't go just based on the fact that the coaching staff seems to be have been sticking him in more than Simon.

I completely agree. I wouldn't play Wimsatt at all unless our OL demonstrates that it can prevent sacks and give the QB a little time.

Yes, we actually could.
