This aspect of our O hasn't been as effective since OMAC left. Stove seems like a natural fit, and doesn't fall down like OMAC. Probably one of the more critical aspects to our running game. Fat Burt talked about it in his presser how it changes leverage, and forces the D to protect the ends. Glad to see it.

Stove looked great as our speed sweep guy against Arkansas. I would definitely like to see that become more and more a staple of this offense going forward. He had 106 yards rushing on 4 carries (I'm counting 12 yards in there that was considered a pass from JF3, but was clearly another sweep play). If you take away the 78 yards on the first play, he was still averaging 10 yards a carry on that play. Also, he had one juke move in the backfield on an Arky defender that looked like something I would do in the old NCAA game (RIP).
My question is, how are we going to get everyone the ball when KJ comes back? I love KJ and Pettway and want to see both of them mixed in there to display their strengths, but have also loved Truitt running the ball as well. Hopefully, we can continue to get him and Stove touches going forward and find a good way to mix everyone in.

Ricardo Louis was pretty good at it.

I've got to say this particular stove is red hot.

The coaching staff needs to keep playing him as long as he has the hot hand.

Stove and Truitt both have burst like a mofo
