Who would have thought that Cotton-Moya would have almost turned into an overshadowed afterthought at this point? That isn't anything against Cotton-Moya either, but just a testament to how good we are now at nearly every position on the defense.

Lima's hand to the face penalty appeared to be an incorrect call. Looked like he had his hand in the upper part of the center's chest plate of his shoulder pads & hit him so hard his head snapped back making it look like he hit his face or face mask. What it looked like from a distance, so I could be wrong as my eyesight ain't what it used to be.

Don't think Lima played many downs, if any, past that play. He was not on the field for Peavy's INT or any play after. Think that is why TCU ran better, but Trent & the others bowed up at pretty big points when we needed it, too. Trent also was playing hard & drew a big holding call after beating the center on a run play down close to the goal line. Was great part of this team win having so many contribute in their own ways.

I was curious about Lima, Meeker, and a few others also.

Noticed that a few guys who usually get snaps (Uwazurike, Lensing) didn't.

I know that's likely a situational thing, but I don't remember seeing them play (could be wrong).

I thought I saw EU on a couple plays but could be wrong. Mainly in the second half when we brought in extra d-linemen on a few downs.

Were fewer plays ran is Saturday's game than in previous games, so I think the subbing was much less in order to keep our best on the field. Otherwise it was situational (Eyi J Johnson, Benton in short yardage/goal line D) or when injury required it.
