I base my skepticism on what we know about last week. As Jim notes, it was exactly the same injury list as this one.
But ...
We have since learned that while senior OG Cody Robinson was in uniform and available in an emergency, he was not expected to play at Tulane.
He should have been listed as questionable or doubtful. And Cutcliffe revealed Tuesday that sophomore CB Zach Muniz is back in the rotation after suffering an injury. Not sure if he was in the same situation as Robinson, but he was either out, questionable or doubtful for the Tulane game.
Neither played in New Orleans. Neither did Ajeigbe, who was also coming off an injury.
I suspect that there is a bit more to this injury list than the five names included on it.
