Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

Go Ducks...
Just a quick thought. After reading about how LMJ has speed and can juke I was thinking how the running game might set up. Last year JJ tired out then Blount ran over them when they are tired. Imagine the opposite this year. Blount pounding the D for 3 quarters and when they are beat down bring in LMJ. I am not a coach nor do I really know much about anything but I would hate to be tired and try to tackle LMJ.

I think I got a ticket to BSU with 5 bronco fans. I am looking for 2 without paying out the ... (help) Otherwise lets be prepared to back each other up.

I remember hearing what a shock it was to defenses to have a huge running back come in after a quicker back....just blew them away and explains what Bount was sooooo successful last year. I'm pretty sure the point of that comment last year was that it is more taxing on a defense to go lightning and then thunder than the other way around. I would not be surprised to see Bount's numbers go down to about 5-6 yards a carry but see LJ post an average around 7-8 yards. It is almost always the case that the #2 back pick up yards a little easier than the #1. Either way...we will be at least good running the ball this year with the potential to be spectacular.

It's all predicated on the O-line play. My one question mark to make or break this year is how well that unit gels. I am on the hopeful side of the coin though.

Read an article somewhere this past week (maybe Moseley) that made it sound like the line has already gelled a bit and is getting closer to having that non-verbal communication that we have had in the recent past and is so important up front. I just hope depth is not going to be an issue.
