Florida State’s vaunted rushing attack

The Penguins of Youngstown State kicked Duquesne’s arse yesterday. Youngstown won 3 games last year. After Week 0, FSU was pimping the fact that they ran for over 400 yards against Dook, but the weak-arse Penguins ran all over them too.

Maybe Duquesne was plagued by a hangover effect from being ran on for over 400yrds and injuries?

Just looked at game stats. Youngstown had right at 300 yards rushing. Their lead back had 20 carries 203 yards (10.2ypc) and 3 TDs. Other 2 RBs that got carries didn’t have as many attempts of yards but both had 6ypc.

Stopping the running game is about discipline and desire. Doesn’t look like the dooks have either right now.

So you're saying my old high school team could stop Bama's rushing attack if we were just disciplined and wanted it enough?

You don't just roll into Arnold D. Stambaugh Stadium and expect a win against the Youngstown State Penguins.
Duquesne was a Week 0 FCS opponent. We all know that, but not sure any Nole would've bet $10 that we'd run for 406 and Jordan Travis would have 11 yards rushing either.
I don't see any Noles "pimpin'" about the rushing attack. Unlike last year, what I see is the fact that fans are happy we have some significant depth of talented RBs this year and they rushed well against Duquesne. Probably right now the best position group for the FSU football team in 2022.
Having said that, different game. All boils down to our being to move the LSU Defensive line, which probably isn't going to be very likely. The line of scrimmage stands out as the major strength for LSU in my book. Some pundits consider it 2nd only to Alabama.
May come down to Travis' ability to scramble out of the pocket, swing passes to the RB, hitting the TE underneath. Quick outs before he gets crushed.
