Hollings was terrific & his vision to veer off into open territory is superb. It's the veering off that poses the possibility of breaking it each run. Past RBs would follow OL & fall forward for 3,4 or 5 yds. Hollings TRIES to break each one. Can't wait to what he'll do on swing passes & screen passes. Man, what an RB. 17 carries for 153 yds (9.0 ypc) & 2 TDs
The reports were that Ford was pushing Hollings hard before his concusion last week. How good is Ford? Real nice to see Clinkscales get a coupla carries for 11 yds (5.5 ypc) & be playing in the 1st qtr. 1 KO return for 23. If O'L still here, Gordon doesn't play at all. GC also has the speed to take it home & would also like to see him on swing & screen passes.
Hatch was running exclusively with the 2nd string & got positive yds on each carry. Straight ahead runner that does not, yet, break off toward open field. He may not be pushing the turns because of his knee, but he sure gets yds(Burns style) 13 carries for 66 yds (5.1 ypc). RFr P J Daniels is still developing & must be tickled pink to get 9 totes for 26 yds (2.9 ypc). Bilbo gets 15 yds on 3 runs (5.0ypc)& a 5 yd dash to paydirt.
All-in-all: 51 runs for 279 yds (5.5 ypc). DYNOMITE! We ran 66% of the time. We may not run this many times @ UConn, but expect to see plenty of RB action & some more big yardage from our RBs. I honestly believe the team (includes coaches)will help Clinkscales get his 1st Ga Tech TD this week.
