re: Did Kelly ever say why Weeks didn't play more?

I agree! But has Womack been much better? Not really
Edit to add: Jones is slow AF and couldn't hold an edge all night. Sure he may be better overall against the run, but once Lane discovered he could beat Jones around the edge he called it every chance he got. And it worked every time. We dont have a Dline coach to make the necessary adjustments, but it would have been nice to try Womacks speed.

He played a pretty good bit. OM ran 80 something plays. Players can't play 80 snaps. They are going to need to rotate.
You might want to tell Kelly that.

Ole Miss ran 88 plays on offense, assuming the DL didn't play much special teams, I've included the % of snaps.

They were late for their smoothie after workouts and practice.

Part of the reason for those snap numbers is the tempo from Ole Miss. I would be very curious to see how many times we substituted mid-possession on defense.
Still would have liked to see them observe that trend and proactively rotate our DL at the beginning of drives.. those guys were gassed by the end of the game.
As for the safeties.. not sure we had much choice on that front.

Would be nice to see what he can do in obvious passing situations.
Womack definitely needs more snaps. Kelly always talks about building through his recruits.
He now has a chance to play them. The drop-off from the upperclassmen to the freshmen isn't noticeable.
Let them learn on the fly this year.

The only reason Weeks went in was because Spieghts got injured. Personnel decisions are questionable at best.
