Will we rush for less than 175 in any game this year?

Will this team be "slowed" to the point that we have to throw the ball? I doubt we have less than 200 yards rushing prior to Alabama... Then Ole Miss could present a challenge and Arky is always weird. But does the rant think that the team rushed for less than 175 in any game this season??

My bet is no. And I don't think Buga has a game under 100 all year.

It's a run away train!!!!!!

Bugs might get held to under 100, maybe, but I doubt our team rushing is ever that low.

I think it's possible that we finish a game below 175. There are some stout defensive lines we'll face. But then again... with our (often stubborn) commitment to the run, that alone would lead me to think anything below 175 would be a joke.

as a team I say no. If keying on LF7 that much, I would expect Harris to carry 12-15 times by design plus the random reverse/sweep with WRs.

Ole miss defense is worse than last year. They lose to a mediocre Bama team if the tip ball or 5 turnovers don't go their way.

People were too high on Bama, which leads them to be too high on ole miss.

This team will rush for over 175 on everyone except mcneese at.

If we keep playing games with under 100 yards passing, I sure hope not.

Alabama has a shaky backend but that front seven and even more so the DLine is probably the best in the country. I still think we'll rush for over 175 against bama. Not necessarily because of offensive dominance, their offense at this current time is atrocious and it'll be a battle of defensive and rushing. Hoping Harris would be our X factor in that game.

Ole Miss has a solid D. But, they run a 3-3-5 which is designed specifically in their scheme to stop spread offenses. Hence why last year the power run game slaughtered them in both games against us and Arkansas. Honestly, I don't see us rushing for under 175. It's our offensive identity. Now if another Arkansas scenario presents itself which I doubt then obviously yes.
