Why only 10 runs by our running backs?

At this point you have to question his loyalty. The only people who get excited about the thought of Muschamp being here next year are our rivals.

It's not so much the backs as it is the blocking. We were not blocking the RB plays very effectively. Your +1 in run game with the QB runs. So it was more effective tonight. It was the right call.

:suicide:

Would like to have seen what Adam Lane could do on a few carries. ??
Driskel took over a lot of carries.
Yeah, you would think that he might give him a try on the goal line down there instead of the light weight Powell.

Whatever happened to us gutting them up the middle? I thought they were one of the worst teams defending the run? I thought their DT's were a major weakness? Of course we'd make them look ALL SEC.

Yes defintely Driskel began telegraphing that he was going to run. It was way obvious.

You always think everything is the right call. If the staff were making the right calls we wouldn't be 7-11 since UL. It is time for you to stop blowing smoke and start realizes that this staff and Jeff stink. Say it...

The game on the line fourth quarter and at the two, Chimp hands it to our smallest back. I guess he expected a hole for the kid to squeeze through although everyone knew exactly what chimp would do. Stupid. If lane and Taylor transfer who would blame them.

So much for our "stable of backs" and being four deep. Doesn't matter when The Chump doesn't play any of them. I can kinda understand why KT has limited touches because he is just horrendous blocking on pass plays and picking up blitzes. But where is Adam Lane who got a ton of carried in spring? Mack Brown? Hell even Powell has proved himself an effective runner and a great pass catcher out of the backfield. But no, we decide to use JD. The guy who has no elusiveness, no burst (except when he gets a 10 yd head start and open field), no instincts whatsoever. He runs straight into a "truck-stick" type hit every time he goes forward. THAT was our gameplan. I'm so sick of this shlt....

Exactly. Where the heck is Adam Lane. Why can't these kids get on the field?

Because Driskel gives us the best chance to win. Muschamp keeps telling us that and I believe everything he says. :bob:

How's your Auburn prediction working out. Do you ever get tired of being wrong?

And as the game went on, he telegraphed his runs just like he telegraphed his passes. Taylor, Brown and Lane were supposed to be the runners tonight. Another horrible game plan...

My 15 year old son was calling the runs from the stands. Think about that for a moment.

Can someone give me an example of one play we blocked well for our RBs except the one carry when Jones was in the game briefly.
Yeah, I didn't think so.
Study up ladies! You already got the bit

The offensive line played well last night, get out of here with that tired excuse.

You're clueless. That should be one of the concerns coming out of the game. They did not run block well against a team that hasn't look strong upfront.
