pretty funny that this thread appears and the same old tired BS is brought up again about KW and fumbling.

The rumor about KW being in the doghouse with LM because of "fumbling in practice" was posted on here two years ago and was repeated so many times that is has seemingly become fact. No where has LM or anyone else ever said that KW was in the doghouse because of fumbling. But some idiot says it here and it the KW fanboys run with it for two years.

in 2006 KW got 76 carries, CS got 46
in 2007 KW got 70 carries, CS got 45
in 2008 KW got 83 carries, CS got 217
so far in 2009 KW has 7 carries, CS has 12

KW had two years to beat out CS as the feature back and he didn't. Assuming it is because KW "fumbles in practice" because you read it on the rant doesn't make it true.

no shite hunh? LSU uses both backs because they are different and compliment each other.

and FTR most people don't know this but KW is 23yr/old and CS is 21yr/old yet they are both seniors in college - who do you think the better NFL prospect will be?

Only his second fumble in almost 400 carries. You call that a problem?

Scott was the better back in games before Saturday, so he was our starting RB, period.

KW showed himself to be better during the game last Saturday, so he got more carries down the stretch, period.

I don't see why some posters, who are capable of intelligent thought, feel the need to discuss BS rumors that get away from the obvious.

I think this year we will see much much more of KW than in years past mainly because of the QB situation. I think Crowton will throw in a lot more packages with JJ and KW.

Im interested in seeing whether or not he puts them both in the backfield more frequently as he did in the South Carolina game last year.

I lean towards CS, but the first play/formation may change that. The better than O-Line play, the more we'll see CS.

I like KW more, but that doesn't make me right or him better. I was fine with the split against UW and how they managed them based on situation and performance. They rode the warmer hand.

Maybe 48 plays just weren't enough to know what the offense would prefer to do.
