This Niblett shit has to stop. Even though he only has 4 (it feels like more) It just has to stop. It's square peg round hole bullshit. It's time to get Clark/Simon/Terry/whomever more carries to help keep Wisner intact by the time we get to Georgia and aggy. Wisner is a dawg, but he's 190 lbs, and can get yac, but he gets worn down.
He had 16 carries against that Ohio State defense, and grinded out 80 yards @ 5 ypc. That was game 1, so it was to be expected. Baxter had 10 for 40, so slightly above equal carries.
Baxter hasn't played since UTEP where he had 1 carry for 6 yards, so essentially he's only played in 2 games. Wisner needs help, and we have it just sitting on the bench (Clark 32 carries, but 13 carries against SHSU, 7 against UTEP, and then it's just 1-3 carries w/ 1 TD; Simon 27 carries, 17 against UTEP, and then 9 vs SHSU and 3 vs OU w/ O TD's; Niblett 4 carries for 17 yds @ 4.3 ypc w/ 0 TD's Gibson, when he didn't portal, had 37 - 7 vs SJSU, 18 vs UTEP, 11 vs SHSU, and 1 against OU w/ 1 TD. Sark didn't even bother giving him carries against UF where his entire family came to see him. Dick move.). What's the point in having healthy RB's if you aren't using them effectively or effeciantly?
22 against OU
12 against Kentucky, and was stuffed repeatedly. 1 TD
He only got 8 against UF because Sark wanted to let the ball fly. Still, 1 TD rushing and 1 receiving.
He didn't play against any of SJSU, UTEP, SHSU.
He has 58 carries for 222 yds in 4 games and he's averaging 3.4 ypc in conference & 3.8 tot w/ 2 TDs rushing and 1 receiving. He has 8 more carries than last year (I'm only doing 4 games against quality competition/conference) 3 tot TD's. That's abhorrent.
Arch has the exact same amount of runs avg 3.3 ypc but w/ 5 TD's rushing
He had 226 carries last year avg 4.7 ypc w/ 5 TD's rushing and 1 receiving in 15 games. Terrible. And we saw how banged up he was, and we had literally no one to help so we moved Niblett to RB. Now that we have healthy backs, Sarkisian isn't using them.
How to mismanage your RB room 101. I don't know if it's Sark or Scott who is making the call to put which runners in, but they're failing....again.
