College Football - Week of 9/27

[BleacherBadger]

My bad to the Wisconsin fan that said they were nervous about Michigan haha...I really did not see that coming...especially with that 19-0 lead....sorry

 

I know this program pretty well. As upset as I was at the time of not scoring TDs, I was feeling fine at 19-0.

 

Talk about crap'n the bed.

 

I asked this in the middle of this thread somewhere and didnt see if any Badger fans answered. How is that Clay kid not getting more carries? Hill is just getting him what his line is hammering out. That Clay kid ran the ball twice that I seen and look incredible. I think a little more Clay and the Badgers score a couple of more TDs instead of FGs.

 

Don't ask me at all. Everytime people ask me about PJ Hill, I tell them the same thing: He's not even the best RB on the team. Hasn't been for 3 years, skill-wise. For the past 2 years, Lance Smith was the best running back. Similar to Clay, but not as physical and a little faster.

 

Clay's a redshirt freshman who's an absolute beast. I think he was the #4 RB coming out of high school 2 years ago. Not many RB's have that combination of power and speed. I don't know how much say Bielema has in the play calling, I think Chryst handles most of it, but they love to wear teams down with Hill in the first 3 quarters, sprinkle in a little Brown/Clay, and then use Brown/Clay heavily in the 4th. They love getting the fresh legs in there.

 

So I think Bielema/Chryst want to bring Clay along slowly (I don't know why, maybe just giving Hill his due), and use him as an offset to PJ later in the game. Brown is an fine back, but doesn't have PJ's size/power or Clay's combination. I really hope Clay is getting 15 touches a game by the end of the season. Hill is good, but more a product of the system. He really is just the next Ron Dayne, who has done great in the NFL.

 

I can't wait until Clay gets the majority of the touches.
