Since Texas just has one true running back. It looks to me that the QB will have to become the second one. I just don't know if he can hold up to the pounding that he will take. If they can't run they will have to throw a lot. Mistakes will be made and as the game goes on LSU Tigers will dominate in the second half. Go Tigers!!!!!

This really is a huge deal. With the kind of heat expected, no way one back can play every snap. Which makes them one dimensional

It will be a bigger issue in pass protection IMO.

The qb is tough as nails but I think the heat and the pounding that he will take is gonna take it's toll.

Ehlinger is a tough dude and a gamer. He won’t be laying down in front of his home crowd. I think we can contain him and wear on him but I dang sure don’t want to see him begin to get in a groove running the ball.

I imagine he'll grow tired of the pounding he's going to take

He’s going to get hit over and over and over again.
I hope it’s a clean game. No cheap shots on Joe like against UCF.

However, I’m predicting at least 1 of the 3
- pick 6
- scoop & score
- punt return td

I'm surprised no one is concerned about their running game. They have a couple good sized bruisers back there. I may be wrong, but I think Herman is gonna lean on controlling the line of scrimmage and feed those guys.
