re: Joe Addai or Keiland Williams?

Absent a much improved season this year, KW will be remembered as very capable and at times explosive backup. A contributor, not a star who received far more attention in this space than his performance demands.
Best of luck to him, but you can make a pretty good argument his best opportunities are behind him. There are other capable back ups who each bring something special to the table.

'm also expecting a lot of formations with CS and KW in the backfield at the same time

i'll never get why we abandoned this

I really like this formation at the goal line b/c defenses would have to respect the FB dive as well.

---

keiland on the FB dive fake was money and, again, we've abandoned it

doesn't use his size to run people over

Maybe but he has a real powerful leg drive that allows him to run through tackles. IMO, he definitely has the physique of an "every down" RB whereas some on this site say he is just a specialty speed back.

And Alley Broussard was better than KW in 2006.

There goes your credibility. Who in their right mind could make a statement like that?

Please Note: ForeLSU did not make this statement. The poster screwed up the "Reply" process.

i mean fat alley had a few big runs, but i think they came against shite like fresno state

keiland did well later in the year last year

it was noticeable when scott was wearing down

and no, KW is not going to consistently perform in a running game based around i-form and running up the gut and only creating inside lanes

To answer the original question, I believe that it's KW. He has thrilled me with some electrifying runs (some after catch) in big games.

I like the idea of KW and CS both in the backfield on a situational basis. I'd like to see that 10 to 15 times a game. I'd also like to see KW get around 20 to 25 snaps per game. That's not to say carries per game.

I do believe that CS either wore out or became dinged-up last season. Perhaps KW can help reduce that load.

The Tigers certainly have other dangerous ball carriers like Murphy, Ridley, Ford, Holliday and Shep. I'd like to see them all get some carries every game, and they should. After all, the Tigers run the ball about 38 times per game on average (based on last year with new timing). rules).

He doesn't have that many great runs against SEC defenses.

Ya, OK. Name me an RB in conference who had a better performance last year than his against Auburn? (outside of Moreno, who is a level above) I'm not talking about numbers; I'm talking about breaking tackles, vision, and real actual game impact. Everyone who watched that game came out of it with one feeling, Scott is a beast.
