The mop-up function is either not working or working in some way that doesn't make sense.

Last two blowout games of 30pts. my guy set to mop-up has not entered the game.

The problem is that in the new engine, anyone who is not on the depth chart will not play at all. So you have to put them on the depth chart in order for them to enter the game, which seems silly if you only want them to play in mop-up time.

This is a good way to get guys to redshirt then, right?

Hasn't this always been the case?

mop up players did not have to be on the depth chart before to get in a game.

It should be changed because you might have 5 post players say, but you only want to play 4 regularly. Those four players often occupy the 4 slots for each post spot for many coaches. So the 5th guy could never possibly get in a game, which shouldn't be the case.

If you never want a guy to play except in mopup, is it safe to put him on the depth chart as long as his setting is Mopup?

I'm not even sure I will ever do that though. It's just not worth it. What do I care if a walkon ever gets in. It's not like he's a real person.



Edit: I was caught unaware that the blowout logic changed regarding how the depth chart works. I was wondering why my last guy on the depth chart wasn't getting as many minutes as I expected in 50 point blowouts.
