"Look at the defenses he was facing when he got those yards - a bunch of db's on the field, all playing the pass because, frankly, teams knew that through the air was the only way Arky was going to beat them."
That was your quote Teague.
I wasn't talking about playing 8 or 9 in the box. Davis did his rushing against quality defenses and a lot of his yards were gained in the 4th quarter when those teams knew what was coming. So yes I believe that some of the time the safeties were up ..... especially against LSU.

I have no idea what obscure point you're trying to make, but I stand by my statement. Teams played Arky for the pass, and that's why Davis was able to do as well as he did. Davis faced a lot of nickle and dime defenses, and very few 8/9 man fronts.
