Frosh Force. Ten true freshmen played against Kal.

• CB Ethan Bonner played in his third game, likely on ST. I did not see him on defense.
  
• DE Thomas Booker started in place of an injured Dylan Jackson. He had a solid game, contributing five tackles, though the DL as a whole surrendered a lot of rushing yards to a sub-good rushing attack. He has played in every game this season.
  
• WR Simi Fehoko played in his third game. He had no catches. When Trent Irwin went down, I was surprised that they did not use him more considering how much he was featured against UCLA.
  
• DE Andres Fox played in his fifth game, burning his redshirt. However, he did not record a statistic, and I don't remember seeing him play much.
  
• OLB Tangaloa Kaufusi played in his first game of the year. And he recorded a tackle! (I'm guessing it was on STs.) Congrats!
  
• ILB Jacob Magnum-Farrar played in his second game. He did not record a statistic. I don't remember seeing him much, either.
  
• ILB Ricky Miezan played in his third game. I also do not recall seeing him, either.
  
• FB Jay Symonds played in his first game of the year, likely on ST, though he may have played at FB. Congrats!
  
• CB Kendall Williamson played in his ninth game. He continued his solid play with three tackles and a PBU.
  
• WR Michael Wilson had a catch for 5 yards; as with Fehoko, I am surprised he was not more featured. Has played in every game this season.
  
  

I really like the new redshirt rule a lot. One of the reasons I like it is because it allows freshmen who have busted their tail in practice all season to be rewarded toward the end of the year; I am guessing that is one of reasons that Kaufusi and Symonds got PT, though I am not suggesting that they are not also talented. Also, it allows us to play freshmen selectively and still have them retain a redshirt; under the old rule, no way ten freshmen see the field for Big Game.
