Yep… been saying this all year. Could have brought a physicality to our offense that we don’t have in the run game. I don’t care if he can chip block, don’t put him in to chip, add an extra TE, use a physical WR, just find a way.

Being too picky about what your players can and can’t do is exactly how you waste players skills in what they can do at an elite level. He’s a darn old school LSU running back so let him touch the ball. We going to need him next season. I’d feature him and some of the others coming in. When he’s a junior, those freshman backs will be exactly what he is so we need to get the offense prepared for that style of play.

We can do both spread and PA from under center with these backs and this OL. I hope we see more of it next season. A pistol formation or something. The OL needs to be more physical in the run game as well so I hope this is a focus in the off season.

And it could be that the offense we had this year didn’t need his physicality as much as it needed someone who knows all the plays and knows how to block.
We did have a 1000 yd rusher, btw.
Next year will be a different offense.

Having a back who can effectively block is a key to this offensive scheme-

A scheme that got the starting qb the Heisman, and the backup getting his first start today almost 400 yds with 3 TDs.

You don't change that for a running back in today's game.
