Make big running plays

[upperdeck]

Last year it took us 7 games to have a 30+ yd run. We only had 2 going into the UL game

we have had more in 6 games than all of last year.

wonder how much of that has to do with the tight end usage.

spreading defenses out with a WR instead of a TE might hurt qb numbers (dump offs) but spring more long runs with a more spread out defense (the chip theory)

if they continued on this pace for 13 games, it would be the third most yards in SU history

yards per game would be a better comparison (we wouldn't be that high) but i don't have that handy. 1959's 285 rushing ypg isn't in danger though!

With the success of the run game, I was surprised Hunt had so much trouble passing. You think it'd open things up.

I am amazed at the big runs we have ripped off, especially when Jerome has the ball. To me it looks like he is in slow motion b/c he is deceptively fast but he rarely gets caught from behind. He and PTG are definitely rewarding the O Line for their hard work in the trenches.
