How many yards does Aeris Williams rush for this year?

[Faustdog]

Will he get to 1,000? Can he match Josh Robinson's twelve hundred yard 2014 season?

I think he's got a good chance to do both.

I would guess about a 4.7 ypc and 22 carries per game, so about 1,240 before the bowl game. Maybe I'm giving him too many carries and the carries will be split more, but I don't see any way he's under 1000 yards, barring injury.

4.7 would be an aweful average. Needs to be at 5.5, unless the 4.7 is in SEC play.

I'm hoping our backups are good enough to prevent aeris from getting that many

22 carries per game seems really high. That's 286 carries over 13 games (incl. bowl). Last year, our 3 primary backs - Holloway, Aeris, and Shump had a combined 242 carries through 13 games. Even in 2014, Josh Robinson only had 190 carries over 13 games, good for about 15 carries per game. I think 15-18 carries per game is probably more reasonable, with Fitz still getting somewhere in 8-10 carries per game range. That said, Aeris is more than capable to average around 5.5 ypc this season which should put him well over that 1,000 yard mark.

Not too mention that lee and Gibson are too talented to keep off the field. Plus with fitz gettin 10 or so carries a game, I do t see any back getting much over 200

Yeah maybe I've rewatched the ole miss and A&M games too many times. He got 25 and 24 in those and it really didn't seem like a lot just watching it. But agree it wouldn't leave carries for the other backs.

He was a monster in those games without a doubt. Had 22 carries vs BYU as well I think.
