    UGA's run D looks pretty stout. What kind of running games have they seen so far? Should be a heck of a ball game if both teams show up.

    It may be skewed a little bit by the fact that Samford rarely runs the ball. Plus, it's pretty early so there are some small sample sizes and outlier stats for both teams.

    I took out Samford and their rushing defense goes from 71 yards per game to 95.5 and an average of 2.77 YPC. So, still pretty good considering Appalachain State is a typically a run first team and probably Notre Dame as well. But I think I saw that ND's QB only ran the ball one time? Not sure what is up with that.

    Nevermind then. I must have confused the 1 yard for one carry.

    Yea, they were really impressive against Notre Dame. They held them to 55 rushing yards on 37 attempts (1.5 YPC).....against Temple and Boston College, Notre Dame put up 422 rushing yards on 44 attempts (9.6 YPC) and 515 rushing yards on 51 attempts (10.1 YPC), respectively. So I am interested to see how well we run the ball against them.
