Hopefully we'll get a chance to see Keiland get more carries this weekend.

Keep feeding Scott but I would love to see KW pick his game up as well. He does throw a hell of a halfback pass.

I hope to see him in like the 2nd or 3rd quarter. Scott is too good to let him sit on the sidelines. After Scott has rushed for about 150 (which could be the first half), then let KW run the show. Scott has proved three times that he is the go to guy. How many more times does he have to show it? BTW, my LSU jersey has a #5 on it...I like KW, too. Scott is just unstoppable, though (except for 3OT at UK...ok, I'll shut up).

Was it always like this? A running back gains 100+ yards and has been on his A game for all 3 games and people want to limit his carries to see what somebody else can do. Let him do his thing and stay with the hot hand. It's nice to have keiland and murphy as options but stick with what works. Were people yelling for Rondell Mealy to get more playing time while Faulk was running over other teams?

Keiland and Murphy should be in to give Scott a rest when he needs it, but he should stay in to pound out as many as he can.

Don't risk him to injury once the game is in hand though...

KW needs to learn to run between tackles..

this will keep him out of the NFL

He has talent, but but but, he better learn quickly

Just saying Keiland can play. Am absolutely loving what Scott is doing, but got to think Keiland can improve this team if given the chance.

You will see more of KW this weekend. Why? Becuase the option play kicked Miss State's arse and he runs that play very well. Once Charles Scott Pounds the middle making them stack the box. We will try to break runs to the outside. Miss State does not have AU defenses speed. I think both Scott and KW could run for over 100 yards in this game.

No, this is a completely new phenomena, based solely on how highly a player was recruited. It ignores productivity and assumes the coaches are misusing the player. It has it's roots in the inferiority complex many LSU fans have. They are scared the "highly recruited player" will transfer. Examples: Always asking when Terrance Toliver will get more catches, but never about Chris or Jared Mitchell; Continually complaining about Keiland Williams not getting more carries, when we have a potential Heisman candidate having a career type of season. There is no doubt in my mind, if the roles were reversed, the same people would not be asking for Scott to get more carries.

I wanted Mealey to start over Faulk after Collins went down. I was wrong, I admit it.

Ok, I thought maybe I was just too young to remember. I just think if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

We need to ride Scott, he has a chance to have a huge year. KW and RM can spell him from time to time. That's enough.

What has Keiland done to earn 10 carries per game? If anything, I think he may be a bust. It may be time to start giving Ridley more playing time.
