Sat, Sept 26 at Syracuse 244 yards
Sat, Oct 3 Eastern Michigan 233 yards
Sat, Oct 10 at South Carolina 158 yards
Sat, Oct 17 Florida 180 yards
Sat, Oct 24 Western Kentucky

800 yards is absolutely realistic in that 5 game schedule. Would be amazing if he got 1,000 yards in these 5 games. Probably doable with a couple big 200+ games.

ETA: 1 games remaining, would need to get 185 yards to get 1,000 yds in 5 games.

Doubt he has 1400 yards after 7 games but to be honest the schedule isn't exactly overly difficult in this span. I think the main reason he will be close to 1200 (7 games) is because we will start passing a little more and spreading the ball around some.

IMO he will get limited carries against Syracuse and the directional schools to try to keep him fresh. I could see him having less than 100 against those schools due to limited carries.

LSU needs him fresh for SEC opponents as opposed to giving him a heavy workload to try to get him the Heisman.

What seems to have gotten lost in all the media buzz he's getting bout his stats Sat is that he only played 3 quarters. He sat out the whole 4th quarter. He could have easily had another 70-80 yrds as tired as AU was getting.

His last carry was halfway through the 3rd quarter. He could have rushed for 350+ easy

Only game over 200 is South Carolina in my opinion. We will have to find a lot of tough yards against Florida. I don't think he will play much in the other games.

Wouldn't be surprised to see him break 800. But that's kinda pushing it I think.

I would love to see us throw to him a good bit in these games. Less of a physical grind and it will give teams something else to think about.

That would put him at 1,227 and 18 TDs going into the final stretch.

I fully expect him to break a couple against those small schools. He did it continually against Auburn.
