Transfer portal guys, week 8
One correction from last week.
Ryan Barnes (U Mass) did start at CB and play, racking up 4 tackles (4 solo).
Offensive MVP:
C Pat Coogan, Indiana. Very good game overall, didn't allow a sack, and cleared some decent running lanes, despite the opposition crowding the line.
Defensive MVP:
CB Jaden Mickey, Boise State. Came back from the injury, and played an excellent game.
Honorable mention:
DT Aiden Gobiara
Stats:
QB Drew Pyne, BGSU - NSR, DNP vs Central Michigan. Still dealing with that leg injury, but is day to day.
WR Deion Colzie, MIA (OH) - NSR, DNP vs Eastern Michigan. Still dealing with an injury, and was questionable yesterday.
OL Ty Chan, CONN - Started at OT against Akron
NB Lorenzo Styles, tOSU - NSR, DNP vs Wisconsin. He was available, but they decided to let him rest that injury.
C Pat Coogan, IND - Started at C vs Michigan State. Did not allow any sacks, had a very good day in pass protection.
TE Holden Staes, IND - Played against Michigan State, NSR.
OL Joey Tanona, Purdue - Started at LT against Northwestern. Didn't look very good, but that's because the rest of the line stunk up the field.
WR Rico Flores, UCLA - Played against Maryland, 3 receptions for 15 yards.
OL Rocco Spindler, NEB - Started at RG vs Minnesota. Injured during Q1 (after 10 snaps), came back on the sidelines with his hand in a cast (broken). The dropoff in performance when his replacement came in was huge, since the line gave up 9 sacks.
S Kennedy Urlacher, USC - Played against us, mostly on special teams. He was involved in a minor scrum at the end of the game.
DL Tyson Ford, CAL - Played against UNC, NSR
DL Aidan Keanaaina, CAL - Started at DT against UNC, 6 tackles (1 solo), created some good disruption of running lanes.
WR Jayden Thomas, UVA - Played against Washington State, 1 reception for -1 yard.

OL Sam Pendleton, TENN - Started at C vs Alabama. Not is best day, PFF rating 58.5.
RB Logan Diggs, MISS - Played against Georgia, NSR.
