Desmond Howard reports that Rocky is a game time decision….

They aren't playing Rocky. As far as can be seen, he did not practice all week. Sit him and let him get healthy.

On sportcenter before game day, there was a gambling segment. One guy said take Kentucky QB passing for more than 3 TDS.

With Byrd and brown back there? Absolutely. I would guess he puts minimum 4 on us.

Pray for the turn-over gods to do us a solid today. Team I saw first half against Vandy has a fighting chance, if our replacement QB performs.

He throws a real nice looking ball. Need that to be more accurate. But he honestly looks like a passer…just needs to get in a rhythm and complete some passes.

I fear he is gonna lock onto his primary…..who won’t be open….then hold the ball too long and get sacked. I’d guess at least 5 sacks of Hampton today

Hampton has it tough because he has not played very much over the past two years and NIU has not done a good job getting him live reps should he be needed in a situation like this.

It’s really tough to get a game ready QB recruit in the MAC. There’s a reason that Vandy freshman was a 4 star recruit. Often we have to develope kids and I think Hampton is gonna need a bunch of games to develope.

I agree. That being said I'm not trying to say the kid can't be good or even great someday, but so far I just haven't seen anything that made him look any better than say a Ryan Graham. I hope he changes my mind today.
