These two running backs should be getting the bulk of the reps moving forward, as they are far better than rest of Oregon’s already loaded RB room. Davison’s Tight Squeeze We all love it when ...

The Case for Oregon's Freshmen Running back Duo to Start

David, thank you again for another entertaining, enlightening article.

It's so good to have true frosh come in with stars attached to their names and produce in their first season. That's talent meeting opportunity and excellent coaching, schematically and otherwise.

All right, youngsters, Put Down That Cig!

Great article, and one that I completely agree with.

Really fun to watch.

We have not had a running back with breakaway speed like Hill in a very long time; not since LaMichael James, over a decade ago. I sense that Davison has much more upside in picking gaps to bursting through them, although he is very good, actually better than most of the RBs already.

That block by Davison on the second play in the article produced a "crack" sound you could hear in the telecast over the other game noises. It was a hit!

So delighted to have a THUNDER and LIGHTNING combo again!
