Can’t believe they aren’t getting any meaningful snaps. Lane and co gave them NIL deals to not leave. They can’t see the field

Durham has no acceleration and they both get tackled on first contact.

I am surprised as bad as the run games been tonight that we haven’t seen more of them.

They have to pass protect to play in this offense

There’s definitely a reason. May just be as simple as their styles don’t fit Kiffin’s offensive style like the bigger, stronger backs. But I think pass protecting is a big part of it.

Berry doesn’t make the inside cut. He has left a ton of yards bc of that.

I figured Berry would at least get a few gadget plays a game, even if he didn’t get the bulk of the carries.

Dead last & 2nd to last in conference in rushing yards the last 2 years

Yes our play calling sucked but the players themselves aren’t completely blameless

It is, you’d think a couple touches for the home run factor especially when DJ isn’t doing anything. Gage ran hard but missed at least 3 big lanes for a TD and other large gains. Very strange

This! Even last week they went down with a hint of a touch.

They’ll get the last few drives. Better show something it they want to play meaningful snaps

124 yards rushing isn’t great, but I wouldn’t say it’s bad. The game isn’t over yet.

At this point, Almost like they paid them to keep them off other rosters

The best man will play.

I was tired of the constant rotation of RBs every other play during BK's tenure. RBs need rhythm throughout the game.

Add them to a long list of freshman RBs that came out on fire and then slowly fizzled away

Word is that Berry won’t block. Remember John Emery as a freshman?

I remember the high-school all-star game (I forget which one?) where they split him wide or sent him deep out the backfield, and he caught three long bombs for TDs and was MVP…

I was hoping our coaches saw the tape.
