a-rob is our best rb by farI don't think he is near as good as ARob....
I'm all for Chizik letting players know who is in charge but if he really is one of our best backs...which I'm not so sure of....he needs to see the field. The 'message' has been sent.
A-Rob is a power runner but didn't appear to be hitting the holes very fast today. I think he's better than he showed today.
BUT there is a certain someone sitting out this year that will have something to say about the running back situation next year.
The ISU running backs are so deep. Why does it matter who plays? Just feed them the ROCK! HA
Did we have any problems today with ARob blocking? Not that I saw. I saw some of our ends letting their bodies be jumped when they tried to go a little low.
Best part of our defense was our cornerbacks and safeties.
I thought he hit the inside holes hard and ran very hard today. A few time he had one guy to beat but didnt. If he would have had a shorter shirt on he would have had 6 on one play. When he ran outside is when he had problems. Iowa did a good job on getting their guys to stay home and stop the QB and RB runs outside as well as any delays ISU ran.
I do have to admit that JJ has been a huge disappointment since coming to ISU.
Injuries weren't his fault last year. Suspensions and barely playing is not what I expected from him. I really hope he can get his act together.
AROB is NOT enough to carry us through the entire Big 12 season. He is just going to wear down.
