Everyone is asking about Moss, but is there an update on these two key defenders?

Pretty sure Bryce is taking. Medical redshirt. Haven't heard anything on Scooby

Bryce is good. We won't find out about Scooby or Moss until next week when they start to release the injury reports.

I don't know about the playoff games but the injury reports were only a SEC game requirement. So my guess is we will only know who is / isn't available before game time is if Elko says so but he hasn't done that all year so I doubt he starts.

It's a requirement starting this year.

Gotcha, didn't realize the rule changed.

Id be surprised if Scooby isn't back on the field.

Radcliffe has outplayed Bryce…it ain't even close

I'm not sure this is true. Do you have PFF or some other grading system to support the claim? I think Ratcliffe makes splashy LOS plays, which make him a more known quantity for TV watchers, but he's slow, like noticeably on TV slow. A lot of the big runs A&M has given up this year involve Ratcliffe taking bad angles, having poor change of direction (for the position), and just not having wheels. I like Ratcliffe as a LOS, slot, dime type safety, but I haven't seen much to suggest he's a more versatile and true "safety" than Anderson. When healthy, Anderson isn't a world beater, but I do think he brings more quickness and speed to the position.

Are you serious?!?

It's a fan message board. He isn't a coach and neither of you know for sure.

Agree with npc.

Our linebacker and safety play is inconsistent, reason we give up so many big plays.

wut?

Ratcliffe got worn out against the TE from Texas in coverage. He is good in run support and is a sure tackler in the underneath game but he is a liability in man down the field.

I know Bryce hasn't played in 3 months but I figure he would be an upgrade against pass heavy teams (like possibly OSU in the 2nd round) if he is available. I'll believe it when I see it for his availability though.

Scooby is faster and bigger than Sanford and WAY better in coverage. Sanford is actually probably a bit of an upgrade in pass rush. They should probably both be on the field on passing downs if Scooby is healthy but likely we won't take York off the field.
