Better than Weber.

I'm really looking forward to their 1-2 punch next year in the offense. Evans in the open field gives Michigan a real weapon, and Higdon's inside running will probably get even better next year.

After the last post about pumping the brakes, this post is like aloe on a bad sunburn. Thank you!

Agreed. I feel like both of these guys are underrated because they lacked the video game-like numbers the media looks for (injuries + shared carries). These videos showcase just how electric both can be, and they're going to rip apart some opposing defenses.
Most of the talk seems to be about the quarterback situation, but I can't help but be very excited about this rushing attack.

Higdon! HIGDONNNN!!!!

Evans looked like a player by the end of the year.

I speculate he was nursing a nagging injury the first half of the season. Never heard anything, but he was getting the starters treatment during practice, he started, and then promptly lost most of his carries to Isaac and then Higdon. Suddenly he turns into the guy we thought we would see all season in the last few games. Just a guess.

Also seems like UFR's were showing some historically bad blocking - missed assignments and the like - on the occasion Evans entered a series.
Contrast with Higdon's groove earlier in the season until a late injury slowed him down against Wisconsin and OSU.

duplicate. sorry.

the 1-2 punch of Higdon and Evans with a more experienced o-line is going to be litty af next year bruh

Great stuff and a reminder of the loaded talent we have in the backfield next year. Higdon is strong and fast, and Evans is quick and shifty. Great combo.

From our RBs. Next year will even have more to cheer about for sure.
GO BLUE!!

Not too shabby for a couple of 3*'s
December 13th, 2017 at 10:02 PM ^
Agreed considering every highly ranked 5 star RB we get ends up being a complete let down or outright bust
December 13th, 2017 at 7:57 PM ^
Fun to watch (at least until the OSU footage, which just brought up feelings of profound sadness.) I'm excited to see what these two can do in 2018!
December 13th, 2017 at 11:05 PM ^
6:02 in the evans video, o'korn comes crashing in and lays an OSU defender out....say what you will about his talent, but the dude played with heart.

He was definitely less glassy than every QB I've seen play since Shane Morris.
