but what’s the excuse for an ineffective Bo Scarbrough getting almost 3x as many carries as Jacobs in 2017?



I'm going out on a limb here, but I am assuming that it had something to do with Josh Jacobs hamstring injury right before the season, and then his ankle injury 5 weeks into the season. Just a hunch.

I’m still salty that Saban stole him from us at the 11th hour

How DARE you say the hurt guy should still have played and would have been more effective than the healthy one?

After that ankle injury five weeks into the season, Jacobs got nine carries against Arkansas, nine carries against Tennessee, six carries against Mississippi State and six carries against Auburn. If Jacobs was so hampered by the ankle injury, how come he was getting so much burn immediately following that injury? It was only during the more important games (LSU and two CFB Playoff games) that Jacobs' playing time was drastically reduced.
