I'm really hoping Malachi is being level headed about it all and Rhule was honest with him. Something to the tune of: "Look, you've been injured quite a bit and we need the best of you. Take this year easy and redshirt, get stronger and healthy. These are the four games we need our best talent out there: Colorado, Ohio State, USC, and Cockeye. We will play you in those four games and then streamline your road to starter for the next few years."

Yeah I look at it the same way as not getting Kaelin or Benning reps. Guys are good enough to play in those four games and you don’t want to pull their redshirt for a blowout v UTEP
 
We moved up to 33 in the ESPN FPI rankings. 9th in the Big 10. We have a .1% change of winning the National Championship.

The Big 10 rankings can be broken into tiers right now. OSU/PSU at the top in their own tier (22.9 and 22.0), then Oregon and Michigan and USC next in a tier (15.8/13.8/13.5), then Washington/Maryland/Cockeye/Nebraska (8.8/8.6/8.1/7.8), then everyone else.
