Two 1,000 Yard Rushers?

Featured Replies

Was looking at season stats and i may be getting ahead of myself because i am not so sure blue can duplicate the type of rushing game he had against Clemson, But is it possible to finish the season with two 1,000 yard rushers? Wisner only needs 27 yards and blue needs 290. Would be a quite the accomplishment after losing your bell cow in CJ.

Blue should have had a monster year but his fumbles derailed things.  He is peaking at the right time for sure.

If Blue has a huge game against AZ St, it could happen.

Are they both 1000 all purpose yards at this point? Just looked it up they are. 

Yes.

Wisner - 1202 with 6 TDs

Blue - 1008 with 12 TDs

Unreal!

Especially if you add in Gibson who is at 402 all purpose yards and 4 TDs.

Playing 14 games helps too… but still amazing given circumstances

Pretty impressive! Then you add in the receivers we have Golden, Helm, and Bond all with 600-700+ yards it’s been offense by committee and a full team effort this season! 

HIGHLY unlikely Blue gets enough carries. If a healthy Blue does get 52+ carries then it is certainly realistic based on his stats and his abilities. May need to average 18 rushes per game over 3 games. He got 14 carries vs Clemson. 

Blue might need 52+ carries in the next 3 games which means Texas would need to beat ASU, then beat Oregon or OHSt and likely run well in the NC vs a possible UGA or ND. Difficult achievements. 

If Blue has a huge game vs ASU then his chances go from highly unlikely to wait a minute here, Blue has a legitimate shot. It would be awesome and amusing if Blue or Wisner outgained Skattebo ASU. Extraordinary if both did. It could happen if we lockdown on D and our OL explodes on ASU's undersized Dline.

If Blue does gain 300 more rushing without fumbling, it means we are running the ball well and we are likely playing in the NC. Hook Em!

Would be pretty cool for Sark to say “hold my beer” and wind up with two 1000 yd rushers after early doubts of him having even one this season
