i'm putting it at 9.5.
I'd go with 5-6. Abs is right, Speedy should be getting a ton of carries. He seems to be better suited to play against this team.
I am not the technician that some of you are, but it sure seems like Speedy is better overall than DS. He makes guys miss, he sparks the whole team, he doesn't go down every 15 seconds with an injury (yes a broken leg took him out but I wouldn't write that up as being a puss, his damn leg was broke. And yes he jacked his hammy in fall ball but that is no laughing matter either and compared to DS's record of injuries Speedy's indestructable), and there doesn't seem to be any attitude issues with him.
Why is anyone talking about DS anymore at all?
Plus, if we never put the 5* recruit on the field, even just to prove to everyone that he shouldn't be playing, then how in the world would we ever be able to convince another blue chip RB to come to CU?
fwiw, a freind of mine who has been pretty reliable with inside info says he has heard primarily DS/Speedy getting the carries with Lockridge more in the slot.
I would expect them to alternate series with Sumlin in on 3rd and long. If they can stay in the gameplan, I think about 17 carries each. If we fall behind quick, it will understandably be half of that.
Was that wishful thinking? :lol:
