Herman, Hamilton, and Alston out per twitter reports...

Yeah, who needs depth, anyway?

No Coker, no McCall? Psh, that's no big deal.

No Hamilton or Herman? Yeah, we're fine as long as nothing happens to CJ or Derby.

No Alston? He's only the first sub at linebacker, we don't need him.

No Sleeper? No problem, as long as Miller and Bernstine don't get hurt or need attention, we won't even notice.

Individually, most of these absences aren't that big of a deal. But they add up in a hurry.

We will need each and every player on the roster to have a chance against the Sooners.....

You're an idiot.

Hamilton literally never saw the field outside of special teams, which are going to have little to no impact on how this game will go.

Alston saw a handful of defensive snaps all year long.

Herman was basically MIA for the entire 2nd half of the season. Fiedorowicz was by far the best TE this year, and making it so that he is constantly on the field can only help this team.

The only potential negative here is that Zach Derby is basically guaranteed the 2nd most minutes of all TEs.

Again, you're a moron supahfan33439i84939483

I win guys! I'm an "idiot" and a "moron" because I simply stated the fact that these guys all provide good depth behind what we have.

I wonder if you're really this big of a d0uchebag in your everyday life "TylerSash," because if you are, you're life must be miserable.

Ummmm....Hamilton and Alston never played. Maybe special teams. Herman saw his PT drastically diminish over the 2nd half of the year.Not exactly crushing blows here.

You really have no clue at all. FAIL after FAIL, but you still think you're some kind of genius. You're a total asshat.

Being called an idiot by TylerSash is like being called fat by Michael Moore.

I have to agree with the last three posters. I kind of figured Tyler was about 16, but then he claims to have vividly remembered games vs Michigan and MSU from the mid 80s. That would make him older than that, and I would expect more respectful of people. I would also tend to think someone older would understand the value of depth and special teams play in a game and yet they seem no big deal to him.

I suppose giving kudos to superfan12, GoHawks24 and Billso for their comments makes me a hypocrite. I guess I will just have to resolve not be one in 2012.
