I follow you, but I wouldn’t be as harsh on CEH. However, I was thinking that we have the #1 RB in the country on the bench. Clyde is a good back, but I believe that John Emery is special!!! Why no touches? It’s hard to believe that they think that CEH and Fournette are both better. Is it a trust issue?

If he is as good as we all think I think the coaches would give him touches...unless they are punishing him for not paying attention to detail like pass protecting. I am thinking the next 3 games he will get touches.

I definitely think it was a trust issue. You just played the #9 team in the country, at their house. In the second game of the season.

I think Emery will emerge down the road, but in this situation you consider that he's still a freshman with zero experience against major college players, and CEH and Fournette have been through the wars.

If this were a run-first team, you probably go with him early. It isn't, it's a pass-first team. You go with the guys you think pass-block the best and won't miss assignments, that can make the occasional play on the ground to keep the defense honest.

I was surprised by the rotation, I guess that's the only thing that makes sense to me.

I don't think we have a RB that goes over 700 yds this year, but amazingly enough, I think Buckeye Jeaux may actually be right about our QB
Thus far, he's been insane.
