I think him and Hill complement each other greatly.

Would love to see him get 10-12 carries a game. One question though, why does he refuse to cut up the field instead of running like he is running around a track corner? I mean if it works it works, but cut up the field once in a while.

Also I'm fully expecting the fake FB dive to Copeland and the pitch out to Ford coming against Bama.

If you can figure out the substitution pattern for RB's on this team, then you are a better man than I.

How do you think they do it - Wheel spin, blindfold, numbers in a hat, or miniature monkey?

It looks like when one gets on a roll. Then they put in a back and run crazy plays,,,,like ware or hilliard on a sweep. Or dive ford right up the middle. The most curious playcalling was running hill to the 10. Then running a bubble screen to landry, the ware cat to ford up the middle, Then ware cat-ware keeps around the end. The playcalling is mind boggling.

Well he is faster than anyone on the defense so why not outrun them to the edge?

Ive been calling for Ford all year. Besides Hill and with the loss of Blue, hes the only back on the team that can break a regular run to the house. Got great acceleration, and loves when he turns the corner on those sweeps.

BAsically, they have a bakeoff before every game. Les, Stud and Chavis Judge. THen they run those scores through a formula that takes into account several factors (reading comp scores, original poetry, and then some football stuff) and it spits out when and how much each player will play.

that was Mett trying to hurry up and throw it there before the DB got onto the field. Instead, the DB had a 40 yard running start right at Landry perfectly timed.
