after the TD did you see him point to his wrist? ( invisible watch ) and look up at the fans and players..... meaning it's time... his time... about time.... he is hungry and I like that. :wave:
That's exactly what I said last night, too. Fast, powerful, explosive into the holes, looks to run over people. Granted, it was against TUs #2s, which equals our #7s, but it was awesome to see. He was taking over Murphy's spot before the injury for a reason. In fact, considering he injured his knee, I am surprised how good he looked already.
We have to just hope and pray he gets in on a few plays vs Bama to see if we have a "better" option should Scott falter
Well, we are not comparing apples to apples. Would Ridley look that "explosive" or that "fast" if he were in against a quality #1 defense? Maybe, maybe not. Obviously, he should get some opportunities to prove himself, though. They should definitely give him a few touches against ALA as a change of pace and see what he can do. CS is definitely a great RB, but he is slow to the hole as others point out. Once he is past the LOS, he is a beast.
Well my projection for Scott is 12 carries for 26 yards vs Bama. I hope that won't be the case and that we won't go to that option 12 times if it isn't successful.
