It may good to sit him for NC State as needed...

If we get into a bind and need some points, throw him in there as needed. If that's not the case, I'd leave him on the bench so he can rest up. We're gonna want him at 100% for South Carolina.

My thoughts, exactly.

This is a good chance to have Peake, Bryant, Humphries, Craig, and Seckinger get some catches. BUT... we areen't favored by NEARLY as much as we were with Wake. I would love to see a win as much as everybody. But, I would hate to see a minor injury become something worse with a Freshman. Plus, he needs to be good to go for the Shamecocks and the ACCCG

It really sounds like they are going to rest him regardless. If he's sore for several days, he's not going to practice. It's not worth the risk if the only gain is a 10th win.

no offense but this might be a blessing in disguise

i kind of think Boyd has been "zeroing" on Sammy for the past 2 games. when sammy went out our offense seemed to open back up a little. sammy is awesome, don't get me wrong, but i think it will help boyd get back into a good rythmn on Saturday.
just my thoughts

It's a fair point...

Many of us can remember when Woody would look for Gardener, and who could blame him? If I had Sammy as a target, I'd look his way every chance as well.

Possibly so. Boyd wound up completing at least 3 passes

to seven different receivers Saturday, most of those numbers after Sammy had left the game.
This team is still evolving as far as I can see, which was expected coming into the season. We should have plenty of talent sans Sammy this coming Saturday to beat the Woofies.

I tend to agree with that. When Sammy is open, he's the 1st choice, but when he isn't, throw to one of our other fantastic receivers and don't try to force it. Boyd is young. I have all ideas he'll grow out of that. Man our future is bright!

As a precaution, maybe he should sit the game out this Saturday against NC State. I still believe we can win that game without Him, but we are definitely going to need him when we face Carolina on the 26th. We have lost to them two years in a row, PLEASE guys don't make it three!!! They'll rub it in our face and never let us live it down!!!! He has to be 100% by then!!!

he's not in the running for the heisman and tajh has thrown to him so many times that the wolf pack probably won't have a clue who he will throw to without sammy on the field... may be in our best interest to sit him if he isn't at least 95%

when AE was nursing the ankle. I believe Sammy will sit Sat. just as a precaution so he can be 100% for the next 3 games. Hopefully the staff will give Bellamy a chance to take Sammy's spot on kickoffs for the week.

Rest him. If we can't be NCST without Watkins....

We shouldn't be playing for the ACC Championship.
We need a 100% Sammy vs USC more than we need a 75% Sammy vs NCST.
