Message: [QUOTE="TheCusian, post: 1848896, member: 2585"] Exactly. I was just reading about how our RB are rated next to last on ESPN: 13. Syracuse. Jordan Fredericks is the only back with much of a portfolio: He rushed for 607 yards and averaged 5.7 yards per carry last season as a freshman. Fellow sophomore Dontae Strickland could see more time this year, though. Fair enough, right? But upon further review: 5.7 yds per attempt is pretty good. Why did he only have 607 yards? 8.9 attempts per game. Our #2 RB had 5.5 attempts. Bowling Green's #1 RB had 16 attempts per game, with their #2 had 10.6 attempts per game. Simple math, ESPN. 5.7 x 16 = 91 yards per game. 91 x 12 = Look our #1 RB has 1100 yards! Our #2? Another 600-700 yards. I cannot wait. [/QUOTE]
