The uhh,number 4 running back,was really impressed with him in the Georgia game.


Alfred Blue. Yeh, like I said earlier. I like him, and I think he's a tad underrated.

Blue probably has the best stats but Hilliard has been the most impressive IMO

Stats wise probably blue, but I think Hilliard and ford have played better

Well yeah. We are going to be blowing people out left and right.

I mean meaningful snaps.

No he RS'd last year. He is a Frosh this year. Carried in the NWST game and fumbled. Got one carry in another game, either WKU or Ole Miss. Was talked up by Les going into the season, but it never translated into playing time. I hate to speculate on attrition, but he seems to be a candidate.

I hope Miles uses every weapon we have in the backfield. Hell, I wouldn't mind if Magee gets a few carries. I think Ford, Blue, and Hilliard will see the field the most, though.

As someone said above, I have always wanted to see Gore do something, not that the NC game is the place to try, but he's a weapon Bama wouldn't expect.

Yeah, when you have such a solid stable of RBs like LSU looking at stats can be a bit misleading.

Great running teams wear defenses down so it stands to reason that the 3rd and 4th options are going to be breaking more big runs later in the game while not having the bruising carries against a fresh, pumped up defense early in the game.


Reminds me of all the absurd threads about Lacey and Fowler's YPC being better than Richardson's early on for Alabama.

Speaking of Ware I think he is hurt/banged up. He is not running nearly as physical the last 4 or 5 games. Hopefully with 4+ weeks off he'll be a battering ram again.

Blue has been a homerun threat late in games, which is why I hope to see him play. Don't know why they withheld him last game.

Wish he would lose 10-15 pounds if not more. Dude has a gut.

I think all 4 will be used. They'll want to test the outside with Ford. Ware and Hilliard to pound it and try to soften them up, and Blue to take them by surprise if and when Bama's D becomes gassed.

Amazing that Ware is now basically 4th team

Hilliard is a monster
