Name an equally talented and important running back in the NCAA that averages drastically less carries.

Thats just how it works. That's what you sign up for as a running back.

You've been spoiled after many years of multiple great backs on the same teams. Most teams don't have that luxury to rotate carries with so little drop off0

He was a part time starter this year, had a month layoff to the bowl game and will have three or four months to rest up before spring practice.

How would you tell if a RB was being overworked? I don't this is the same as a pitch count in baseball. I think you have to look if a RB is injured or absorbing too many hits.

Since yesterday was the last game of the season I don't think he was overused.

We've only got him for one more year...he averaged 15 carries/game on the season. He needs to average 24-26 carries/game against non-cupcakes next year.

LSU has not overworked Guice.

It's kind of dumb to worry about 26 carries in a bowl game with several weeks since the last game.

Having said that, Guice can't handle 26 carries a game throughout the season, IMO. I don't expect him to get that many on most weeks though.

A backup needs to step up next year to be at least serviceable

And someone will.

Don't panic until it's absolutely necessary.

That's correct. We are over working Guice just like we over worked Leonard. Just like FSU over worked Cook, Bama over worked Henry & how Louisville over worked their quarter...I mean running back this season.

Why would anybody not want their "best player" to have the ball in his hands?

Do people have a fixation with seeing third string players come in & look like third string players?

I only seem to hear people question LSU players when it comes to this.
