Shook refuses to give up the bobblehead...

It was a poor night of tackling for the Red Tornadoes at Gurley Stadium. For some it was a clear drop in defensive effectiveness while others maintained their usual minimum of stops. Whatever the case may be, Mikey Shook led the charts again this week with nine total tackles (eight solo). He also caused a couple of fumbles. Behind him was sophomore Tyshon Chisholm with seven tackles.

They finally put Devan Mackey into the game for a couple of plays and he still managed to record a solo tackle. Hmmm, two plays, one tackle. That's a pretty good ratio when you consider that several starters had the same number of tackles as Mackey. Maybe he should be getting a little more playing time. And for the record, I want to see Michael Boyce get in the game, too. Seriously, it was ridiculous that he wasn't sent in at the end of the game like others were. I'm sure it was just an oversight on somebody's part.
