Big deal. I enjoy special showers too and my butt eats hammers all the time. Though I'm usually already on my knees for taking any blast in the face from a big black shotgun.
 
Cooley has seemed to me to be a tough runner prior to the Wake game. I'd imagine he was dinged up, because he was very tentative on Saturday, and dancing and juking around and not gunning for the extra yard like he has in the previous 3 games. Dontae has been playing hurt for a couple of games. We need him to get healthy. With those three, we'll be fine. As much as CBF seems to like the inside handoff, it would be good to have a bigger back, too. Those inside runs may just be what the pre-snap reads are giving King, though. If so, I'd like to see it addressed as we aren't going to be successful running those, ad infinitum, against the Miami's, Clemson's, and UGA's on our schedule. We have to do it some to keep them honest inside, but we're doing that a whole lot. Reminds me of Curry running Corey Collier between the tackles every 3rd play.

We really need to mix our 1st down plays up some, everybody in the stadium know we are gonna run it on first down. I get the desire by the staff to get positive yards and not get behind the chains, maybe go for some safe 5yd passes every now and then, or fake the handoff and drop a bomb to Singleton

I’d like to see a quick slant route by Rutherford, but you’re not opening that up alternating that little smoke route and up the middle every first down.

I was a little distracted during that score. Did they let us score or did we actually break the run? My friend argues that we should have taken a knee at the 1, but I’m fine with the points in that situation.

It is almost hard to believe that he was JUST really a WR in high school.He was good there but as a RB ,he would have killed.Maybe they didn't need him.

Grayson's starting RB was Phil Mafah. He's Will Shipley's backup (although he's getting a lot of touches) at Clemson.
 
Not sure why I had the double post. Tried editing the original from "CBK reports that Donate Smith will be back this week." to read "CBK reports that Donate Smith is back to full speed." :dunno:

Hopefully both will be true. :fingersx:

Good news! Dontae stayed with us when everyone was fleeing the clown and his shiftyness is fun to watch, very underrated player.

And when we were getting our absolute beat down by UGAg at home a few years ago, he was one of the few players playing angry. Sims? Who knows? Gibbs? Out.

I hope we get to see Smith get 150 yards and 3 TD's Saturday on 15 carries.
