And our D could have a great game against the run. Be nice to create a few fumble turnovers.

Did Orleans Darkwa graduate? Seems like he was a freshman and had a career game against us last time in the Dome

So going by that article and the still paltry rushing totals, the ankle must still be an issue

Given our record against backups (remember playing Ricky Dobbs, third string QB for Navy, a few years ago...and losing without him even having to throw a pass), this is just as well.

Yes and that should scare everyone. :mrgreen:

In all seriousness I saw them in the Rutgers game and they did not look good either in the offense they run.

that worries me a little bit. Certainly didn't like the 17-0 start in the Superdome in '10.

And that was primarily Darkwa. But I think our run defense has improved a lot since then.

Darkwa tore us a new one two years ago, I would hope he's in the radar for our front seven this time. Stop him and I think we run away with this game.
