I noticed him in garbage time. Seriously what happened to this guy? He was our best linebacker last year until he got hurt? He does look big. Maybe his injury prevented him from getting in the shape he needed to be?
Don't shoot the messenger but somebody on the radio before the game said BBK is getting the playing time because he is the better "all around" player -- mainly I think in pass coverage.

I'm grudgingly willing to acknowledge BBK has proven his worth this year. But I'd still start Azeem at MIK against Tree Friday. UW will need his physical presence to fight off blocks. And to punish Love. And to smoke weed and talk shit.
Come to think of it, I'd still probably start him against Utah and USC as well. I could see giving BBK the Apple Cup, but that's going to be Senior Day.
He was out there. Played mop up, had some plays on the edge. Like Roadie said, let's hope he comes up big down the stretch. I could see see a strip sack on Falk taking it to the house.

Hard to hate on Azeem.
BBK, as much as I hate his Custer hair and general fagginess, has actually played well. Fact.
