and i was not really defending the coaches decisions .. just giving the context of them .. I agree that the best players need to play period .. but i can see the point of rewarding hard work ... especially in a game you have no chance to lose ..

i think they are similar both top 3 round NFL draft picks

the top 5 OT's all missed time in camp and Halton is a senior captain proven player at OU .. not a new guy .. and he only missed a little bit of time ..

ott was not "held out" he was the kick returner and got a few snaps late at RB and that is not what Gabe said at all ... ...

not in the equivalent of a preseason game

fodje got the most snaps at RG (he wan't on the team last year) and Baklenko got the most snaps at LT (he was at stanford last year sexton played what 6 snaps)

expectation is that Ott will be playing a big role this weekend ..

maybe i will eat crow ... but i would expect to see Ott get the bulk on the carries vs michigan ..

he is a better THUNDER player then KD .. for sure ... not a better nba career player ..

by the way for those without an athletic sub .. .. if you click this link and then put your browser in "reading mode" (Chrome it is the top right 3 dots / more tools /reading mode) .. you can read the link for free ..

depth charts have been used by just about every coach of all time to motivate and reward players ... RSJ is listed as the starter .. he is also one of the captains .. OU is going to play a bunch of guys on defense ..

OU returns a bunch in 2026 against an easier schedule

reward for bogo

that is the other side ... LT .. all 3 RT missed time .. Ott is the starting Kick returner in week 1 .. he is good to go

because the other 2 guys missed time as well
