    One back comes to mind......Cecil Collins

    Does any of our backs show flashes of "the Diesel"? Our running game was punishing during his time.

    If you can't pass (Randall) defense's stack 8 or 9 in the box making it impossible to run the ball. If one of these incoming freshmen runs away with things in August at the QB position and defenses can only put 6 in the box you'll see our running game blow things open.

    I know this is a rhetorical question, but just for kicks...

    DD had 129 yards against Illinois in the Sugar Bowl last year, then almost did it again against MSU in 2002 with 122 yards.

    Toefield did it with 183 against Utah St., 129 against Kentucky, 173 against Arkansas, and almost against Auburn with 120. Those were all 2001 games.
