We're calling running down tired defenses and open holes hot hands now?

Had it been the other way around with Magee starting and LF7 playing later against a tired defense.. would that be considered hot hand too?

All 4 RBs are very good.

Fournette is very good, but he is not Bo Jackson on Tecmo Bowl.

Rotate the backs and see who's day it is then feed that back.

or was it just a result of the game plan and a worn down D?
his first carry was on the second possession and went for 11 yards.

LF will start and do very well against Ole Miss, TM will be the third down back. He is great in protection and a decent receiver. If we truly have developed a third down threat out of the backfield, I will be ecstatic. That is a damn back breaker when your DL gets pressure with 4, your DBs do a good job and a little dump gets the O a first down. It is hard for defenses to regroup after those big conversions.

Hot hand as a runner, but he is our best back in pass pro and prob edges out fournette as a receiver at this point

Magee has proven over the last two years that he can and will go the frick off 2-3 times a year. I don't think it was a break out game it was 18 being 18. By my count he's got two more of those in him. Hopefully at least one of them comes this week or next.

As long as he continues to run well full speed, or slower than full speed, but generally, in the upper quadrant of speed, we're good.

Honestly do any of you watch the games? When TM started to go off you could litterally see all of the oline get major push. I'm talking the left side was driving guys 3-5 yds off the ball

Nah Magee is our best back. I've been saying this for a couple years. Don't get me wrong, Fournette and Williams are good too.

Never understood why Magee hasn't got the ball much this season.

Magee has looked like his old self the last two games. I personally think it is because he has been coming in as a back up. Not a worn down defense excuse, but some people are just better off the bench.

I think the last two games have been the ideal rotation for this team. Fournette starting with Magee getting a good number of snaps and touches as a primary 3d down back and a few series as the number 1.

They are both far more dynamic players than Hilliard or Williams.

Was Magee just the hot hand


I have been waitin for this one...

LF7 runs on the field and 90% of the time it is a run to LF7 against 9 men in the box. TM18 runs on the field and it is usually third down and a passing situation.

Now lets see what happens when you go against trend and run the ball to TM18....Boom! 140 yds and a couple TDs! who'd a thunk it!

Not taking anyyyyythhiiing away from TM18. He had a great game and deservedly so. But go back and count the helmets in the box with LF7 in the game and with TM18 in the game at RB. They are going to have to throw the ball with LF7 in the game to break up this trend.

Thank YOU !!! I've been screaming this all season. Fournette hits people, not holes. He's Spencer Ware 2. Great for beating people up. Maybe next year for him. TM hits holes that aren't there. GIVE HIM THE DAMN BALL... We don't need cater to LF because of High School Press Clippings...

TM had a good game no doubt! It doesnt matter who we have at RB if we can't block! We have 4 good running backs, but LF is a monster and our best back period point blank end of discussion and if you dont know that then you dont know football!
