Survive? How many snaps do I have until I play against Clowney?
Thank God a career-ending injury would inevitably come first.

If they call a sweep the linebacker is taking my life away.

With all of the protective gear, most guys that are in relatively good shape could probably carry 10-15 times and be fine. I mean, they'd hurt, and they wouldn't probably gain any yards, and might fumble a bunch, but most average size guys in good shape 5'8-6'0, 170-190, would be fine.
Honestly, D2 schools come in, and in some cases, beat SEC teams, and those guys aren't always that physically talented, they're just in good shape.
Don't sell yourself short. Most people here would survive, they just wouldn't do anything but take the ball and fall down.

Arkansas line vs. Bama D.
I'll start writing my will now.

Depends on the team and who I'm getting drilled by. I'm going to guess 10 because I'm pretty athletic by normal person standards.

For me I weigh 160 pounds so maybe 2 snaps before I am broken in half and go to heaven.

Hey-oh!
Seriously, though this largely would be the answer. I'm a lean guy but very athletic. As long as it's not up the middle, I feel pretty good about 10 carries before I am either broken or dead. Over under of 0.5 if Clowney is on the field. I'd take the under... poop myself in fear... call T/O and I go to the locker room.

i might make double digits

Bring me in on third down and watch me get run over attempting to block. Then carry me off the field into obscurity.

sweeps only please and absolutely no middle screens

A couple months ago I flat backed it off 12 ft scaffolding onto a driveway and got up fine... give me some pads and a helmet and I'm good for 2 carries

I'd probably take a wrong step and twist my knee before I was even touched.

I could probably pull in 3rd Team All-SEC votes for my totes.

One. I would be obliterated on the first snap, as I stare at Saban dumbfounded at the fact that his stupid arse actually put me in the game.

I'd say with a decent amount of preparation I could survive 2 series simply because I was a FB/RB in the 8A division in Florida up until 2 years ago. Im used to contact with guys bigger than me and I've gone up against several guys who are now at some big D1 schools. Florida's QB Jeff Driskel was my QB in high school.

I'm in pretty good shape. I ran a 4.54 40 in high school and I'm a pretty shifty little dude. I'd survive until one of those 250 pound linebackers got me good and square. I'd make due until then.
ETA: I'd wreck shite in the Pac-12.

If they ran sweeps all game, I'd have -110 yards but I'd be alive.

I could prob run 10 -12 carries in the big 12 or big east but SEC I would get a lifetime injury on the first few carries
