    I don’t find myself caring about this. The late game reps on a blow out don’t really do anything. I would take Eason out because I don’t want him hurt then care about the back up getting reps.

    It’s a lot different when you’re thrown in against Oregon or another quality opponent. It’s sink or swim and the garbage time reps aren’t making Sirmon any more or less ready to perform.

    I care. Petersen is an incredibly slow learner in this area. The whole tone of this board in the last two months is that game reps are more important than practice reps. Your backup QB should always be getting a couple of series in the first half of games to see what game speed is like. This prevents your backup from going in cold like Haener did against Cal and shit happening. It requires a little bit of finesse as to when to get the backup some reps but you would expect a top level coach to be able to manage that. Pete is a very, very average gameday coach.

    Edit: If we are all gonna scream to play the young receivers, shouldn't the young QB get some reps too?
    Not many teams give the back up reps in the first half anymore. What coaches and programs do a great job of getting the back up quality reps?
    Don't care. Our priorities should be in order of importance:
    1) Make playoffs
    2) Win conference, make Rose Bowl
    3) Fuck it, start preparing for next year

    If 1 and 2 are gone then it doesn't matter so get young players quality reps. ALL POSITIONS.
    Your priorities in order of importance should have been:

    Beat Cal.
    Beat Stanford.

    The only priority left is:

    Beat Oregon, nothing else matters now.

    The bitching about Eason not getting enough game repps would be deafening.

    It's important for the back up to be able to throw some dropped passes too.

    We will play the back up QB once the starter can execute the offense.

    Pete's backup plan if Eason leaves is to run the Wildcat on every play.

    See, so there's no need to play a backup QB. Get off his back, Guys!!
