Magee is a great back when we decide to play in space. Once we start getting 3-4 wideouts then Magee will shine. If we decide to line up and pound the ball, give me
Hilliard and Fournette all day. Those guys will get a few more yards than Magee when going up the middle.

I think a lot of folks are overreacting to the carries and production from this first game. Magee, Fournette and Hilliard all had roughly 6-8 carries through three quarters, none of which had any runs worth mentioning.

For whatever reason, the running lanes were enormous in the 4th quarter, and Hilliard just so happened to be in the game at that time. People are looking at Magee and Fournette's final numbers compared to Hilliard's and are painting an inaccurate picture. All three were ineffective for three quarters; Kenny was the beneficiary of enormous holes in the 4th and boosted his numbers overall.
