You just gotta love the vicious running style of Spencer Ware.


I prefer a take it to the house type back myself (i.e. Tony Dorcett, Eric Dickerson, OJ Simpson, Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, Gale Sayers, Marshall Faulk, LaDainian Tomlinson, etc.). I realize others prefer the Earl Cambell, Larry Csonka, Jerome Bettis type backs for their violent running styles. I like to see backs make guys miss.

I would have run Michael Ford and Keiland Williams much more than they were used at LSU.

Added Keiland Williams in edit.

I hope Magee gets some carries this year ... He is a hard nosed runner that can get the tough yards.

The one thing we've seen of Hill and Blue is that both of those kids have great ability to take it to the house. They're two of the better breakaway runners we've had in the last several years and they're going to split the load in the running game.

Which I would contend means that if we're somewhat consistent in the passing game, we should be dangerous.
