This is what I don't understand, Denard

runs there is big gaping hole, Fitz runs and there is two or three guys in the backfield immediately. I don't think the issue is with Fitz, the push is just completely different. Not sure what people are expecting from Fitz, when there is nowhere to go. I don't think the other RB's would be having anymore success.

but i also think denard is great at finding a crease even to make minimal yardage.

disputing Denard's running ability obviously, but there have large creases on most of his runs. I don't recall seeing any large creases, on any of Fitz's runs.

Fitz is averaging less than 2 yards per carry. I know Purdue's interior D line is good, but this is ridiculous. We should give Rawls, Hayes, or Norfleet some carries here or there just to see what comes of it.

I would normally agree, but Fitz has done an extraordinary amount of dancing rather than heading upfield this game. I'm not saying replace him as the starter, just give a couple carries to the other backs to see if they can have better success.

He had one run at the beginning of the 2nd half against ND, but that is about it.  Not sure what the issue is, but he looked a lot more decisive last season.  I am sure it's a combination of the OL and how he's running.  I'd like to see another RB get some reps though, especially Rawls.

 this half. The D is playing well and Purdue's O is obviously mediocre at best. Normally I don't like when teams sit on the lead, but sometimes the circumstances are appropriate to do so.

To be honest, so did I. Thought being a road game we'd have a tough time against what was supposedly a good Purdue defense. Looks like Herbie's as stupid as I am.

I like their chances to get

to Indy if the defense plays the way they have in the last two games, and turnovers on offense are kept to a reasonable level. Only missing link, at the moment, is the RB running game. Not sure what do to there, I still think it is largely due to a lack of holes, but maybe a couple more carries for Rawls may be in order.

Dominant road performance

Dominant road performance today, they looked sharp in all facets of the game, it truly seems like this game was never in doubt.

yeah, I don't see how it's

yeah, I don't see how it's possible for Fitz to gain, what, 17 yards on 17 carries, while denard pops over 200 easily. Unless purdue's gameplan was, uh, yeah, let's shut down toussaint and make denard beat us, those numbers make no sense. I to this day, am actually shocked that he was a 1000 yard rusher last year. That's kind of crazy, because he really doesn't run like it. Not particularly big, not particularly strong, and not all that quick. Either he's the recipient of Borges' worst plays, or he's just not really star material. Either way, we need to find a workhorse back (Derrick Green, maybe?) for the future.

Also, I think we can remove the possibility of Fitz going pro after this season.

It took a while

last season for the running game to develop. I think once it does we will be unstoppable in the B1G at least!
