Does Jimbo usually just run with one main back getting most of the touches?

That's a quiet 319 for Najee. It just doesn't feel like it.

It must be real hard running for Bama when you have Tua doing it all. Those 6 & 7 man boxes really clamp down on the poor backs behind the elite offensive lines.
Yeah, I remember last year we didn't have a QB and the RB's faced extra defenders all year. The RB's were terrible.

Brosette isn't even LSU's best RB. CEH will be our leading rusher by season's end, IMO.

He did when he had Cook. He rode him pretty hard. A&M’s biggest issue is not having the depth yet. For the first few games the back up was a walk on. Now we have a freshman back stepping up. He only has a few carries the last few games but broke a 100 yard KO return.

Everyone else is running back by committee this year...

Might not be our leading rusher because Brossette is better at pass pro and gets more touches, but CEH is clearly our most talented running back.
Kid is really good and really underrated because of his height. He's a bowling ball of muscle though and has plenty of power to go with his awesome open field moves and cutting ability. Has a little of that Guice violence too when he's getting tackled.

Arkansas has a better run D than Bama.

You guys got THE University of Louisiana or Southeastern left on the schedule? Maybe Nicholls?

He did a great job of using James Wilder and Devonta Freeman both when he had them but rode Cook when he had him.
Jimbos a great offensive mind and uses his weapons very well.
A&M doesn’t have another RB on Travyeons level. They’ll continue to use him as a bellcow, as they should.

What does it matter? He could be blind and still beat the shite out of A&M.

Sorry, he's no Kellen Mond.

Too bad Mond has a shitty OLine and receivers around him. He would be good at a real team.

You really believe this don’t you? Those of us living in the real world have a word for people like you. Delusional.

Brossette is kind of a reach IMO. He's a solid back, but not a top 3 in the conference type of back.

Brossette is really good between the tackles, but he's a bit of a plodder. He has good vision and patience though.
Edwards-Helaire may be LSU's leading rusher in the end, but both backs will end up with about 900 yards and 10 TDs.
