Jon Joseph   Moderator  No. 2 Share Posted December 15, 2023 WOW! Hats Off to Bucky. A most pleasant surprise considering Bucky was dinged up during the season.  Bucky and his agent must be hoping that Bucky balls out in a draft preview. I expect Stein will get Bucky a bunch of touches in this game. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirklandduck   Moderator  No. 5 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Very cool, that's big of Bucky to still participate! I hope he's fully healed up by January 1st. He was likely hiding an injury for the Pac12 championship as he definitely not his normal self in that game. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartan2785    No. 6 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Probably helps a bit that nobody on this roster has played in a New Year's Day bowl, though playing Liberty is not exactly the same as if we were playing......well anyone else that is playing on that day  It's nice to see some of these guys buck the trend of skipping the bowl game.

Ktmguy2018    No. 7 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Maybe Bucky will have second thoughts about going to the NFL after running all over the Flames....the dudes just get bigger at the next level, Bucky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
