Grant is the ONLY back that has some wow factor to him... there is a reason none of those backs have played the last 2 or 3 years
Wow factor?
Averaged 3.0 ypc last night
Add the Fumble and he is responsible for v a negative factor in field position. Wow!

Averaged a pedestrian 4.2 ypc last year but most of it was bolstered by early season performances against very weak defenses.As the season went on and we played B10 defenses, he wilted like a dollar store flower. Wow!

Sorry to be snarky but there isn't a back on our team I associate with the word 'wow'
Not in a positive way.

Average backs, recievers, OL (on a good day). Poor coaching decisions. QB- poor.
That is our offense.
Our only score was a pathetic trick play. I didn't see one player on offense that made me think we need to focus on him. Even Ervin has a weird running style. Nothing great about him and he might be our best offensive player.

Yeah Ervin. Trucked a guy in the hole, and broke a nice run. Kind of guy you want in a Big Ten game. Only got 7 carries.
That's all on the RB coach. It's a situation where Rhule should have overridden him, and said give me Gabe or Rahmir. Period.

Grant did have the best throw of the game on the toss back to the QB - no surprise that Sims has brick hands to go along with his immaculate ability to read defenses

It would have been interesting to know what Sims would have done had we not had a guy wide open in the endzone. Might have been interception number 4.

For the record I said SOME wow factor and I agree very pedestrian, and I still think it comes back to the O line which is well below average run blocking.
