Lageman just said not too long ago that the tinhorns have a 5th or 6th RD rookie starting at center this Sunday. As good as Stroud has played turnover free with high volume he's still running for his life.

He said the big guys up front on our end have played well over the last two weeks. He's not sure about Allen's status with his shoulder but at any rate, Fatukasi and RRH have been keeping Oluokon and Lloyd clean to make tackles and remain free out there. He said it's a shame Hamilton is still out because this would have been a game for him to flash more than likely his pass rushing ability in the interior.

If Allen is out, he said Walker will have a lot on his shoulders. Didn't see much out of Abdullah.
