Ah, did you forget about Joseph Addai? His first cut was pretty nasty.

He doesn't run at all like Scott.

Ridley: 17 carries for 80 yards
RS: 6 carries for 37 yards
JJ: 10 carries for 20 yards
Murphy: 4 carries for 15 yards
Yung bucks: 6 carries total for 25 yards

42 carries for 176 yards

Oh, and somebody scores.

Yep, but Ridley can make the cut faster than Jacob could. Ridley could have a big year if we use him correctly.

I think he runs likes Addai more.

Not really even close, Scott was all straight ahead. Addai had a pretty good cut, wasnt Davis pretty good as well?

Apparently Ford will not be a factor and you have to wonder if he hangs around. I know he's young, but even younger guys are playing before him,

Yeah, he was very shifty, but Toefield could break tackles and still had some wiggle.

Ridley is a better runner, Murphy is a senior, Blue blocks well, and Ware can play both FB and HB.

Like it or not, it's going to be the Ridley show again. He'll get 40% of the total snaps. With that many looks, he should have no problem breaking 100 again.

I fully expect MSU to load the box and force us to complete passes. I think we have a very modest running day (120 yds on 30 carries) and 13 / 22 for 250. LSU winning 24-7

Murphy's production has been alittle sloppy lately. I still know nothing about Blue. Ridley & Ware are the only two i can actually say something positive about at the moment.

Well I think it's safe to expect 100 yards out of him.
