Lou Groza.

RB's Elijah Mitchell and Trey Ragas (Louisiana) - are these two ever going to graduate?? It feels like App has played against them for five years already!

I think it was exacerbated by them having Elijah McGuire at RB right before Mitchell. Driven me nuts too thinking he had been there since we got into the conference.
